Music for Dancing

What I use for teaching

In each PDF playlist, the songs at the top are usually the slowest; they get faster as you go down the list.
There are usually a few songs at the end of the list which are not necessarily fast, but are either repeats by a different artist, from a different album, or are just different--they might not be great or typical songs for that dance, but they still work.

All of the web playlists are in alphabetical order by the song title; it's not as helpful at identifying songs with particular tempi, but it let me get all the dances up quickly.
