Ultimate rates have been the in-thing of 2013 and it's about time the dance forum finally hopped on the bandwagon. As the dance mods haven't been very active recently I hope you guys don't mind if I start this. The rate is about finding out Buzzjack's favourite dance songs of all time. Firstly we will start with the nominations round.

 

The mostly nominated songs will then be split into 2 equal semi-finals at random, then the highest placed songs from the semi-finals will enter the final.

 

The rules:

 

01. Nominate up to 40 songs. No songs have autoqualified so nothing is safe.

02. The songs must be of the EDM genre (no Starships, On the Floor etc. thank you). Obviously some songs are debatable as to whether they are dance or pop but I will try and make a fair judgement.

03. The songs can be of any style of dance, from as early as disco to as recent as trap (or if you can think of an even newer sub-genre feel free to nominate that!).

04. Songs with the most nominations will go through to the semi finals.

05. You have a week to get the nominations in. It may be longer if we have low numbers.
