Are you just a little "indie"? Do your friends struggle to understand why your music is just a little "weird"? Do you like to dance? Do your friends sometimes groan when they come over and see you playing with the music? Well then this mix is for you! Welcome to my indie dance party, where everyone is expected to dance, have a good time, drink, and be just a little bit "pretentious," but not too much.

1 The Strokes : You Only Live Once
Let your friends dip their toes in the water first with something in which they're familiar. "Hey, I love the Strokes!", says some random cute girl.

2 Phoenix : Long Distance Call
Another cute, poppy song that'll get the guys and gals nodding their heads in agreement. Feel free to start with the liquor/beer/other illicit substances - this song sounds too innocent on its own.

3 Spoon : I Turn My Camera On
Slow the tempo down a little, but not too much. Playing Spoon will give you enough "cool" points to get the inside track on that cute hipster-looking girl in the corner who's been hanging out alone the last couple minutes.

4 Yeah Yeah Yeahs : Way Out
Karen O's voice sounds so sexy, and this song is so rocking, that you can't help but have the courage to talk to some ladies. On second thought, maybe a trip to the keg for another refill should be first on the agenda.

5 The Hold Steady : Chips Ahoy!
What's it been, 15 minutes? Yeah, that's about the time my stoner friends start breaking out the paraphernalia. They'll love this shit.
"How am I supposed to know you're high if you won't let me touch you?
How am I supposed to know you're high if you won't even dance?"
Truer words have never been spoken.

8 The Rapture : House of Jealous Lovers
"Awwwwwwwww shit!" This should be everyone's first response to hearing the cowbell/drumbeat that starts this tune. With inhibitions starting to wear off, the dancing gets a little more "durrty."

9 TV On The Radio : Wolf Like Me
More drinking, more dancing, more debauchery. Here's about where you turn the music up some more, and start dancing a little bit closer to that one hottie you've been eyeing the whole night. Just go for it!

13 The Roots : The Seed (2.0)
Wait, I thought this was gonna be an "indie" dance party. Well, it is, but there's nothing wrong with throwing the Roots in here. You'll get points for not being a one-trick pony. Chicks dig this groove, too.

15 Beck : Think I'm In Love
People starting to get sleepy/drunk/sloppy? Wake 'em up a little with something they may or may not have heard on the radio. It'll at least let them keep their eyes on the prize. Also, using words like "love" this late in the night is a good thing, as it's almost time to go home and it looks like you're headed for another lonely night if you don't step up your game.

16 Clap Your Hands Say Yeah : Over and Over Again (Lost and Found)
What a cute song! The party's almost over, and I'm so wasted that I'm beginning to sound like that singer from Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, what with his slurred singing and everything. What the hell is his problem, anyway?
