Christian Dance Music – Is it really?
An article I wrote for a website under the topic “Best Christian Dance Music.” I wasn’t planning on writing anything but I just got so annoyed by the 2 articles written that both had references to dancing to the Newsboys and Skillet. Feel free to discuss 
When a song has no words, how can you classify it as Christian music?
This question is asked time and time again but the answer is never concrete. Christian dance music is a genre that is under appreciated, overlooked and misunderstood by many. Lost between the world of church-friendly Christian music and secular nightclub hits, there is a small yet passionate group of Christians producing beats that are worth recognition. Some are creating songs that have Christian lyrics but many are Christians producing music that goes beyond categorization.
When techno dance/rave scene frequents are asked what moves them, most will respond that it’s the music far above any other influence. But with no lyrics and a repetitive dance beat, it soon becomes obvious that the music is about more – it’s about the spirit and passion behind the production of the song. Most Christian musicians will gladly admit that they create their music for and under the influence of God. The Holy Spirit moves musicians like David Crowder Band and Hillsong United to combine powerful lyrics with moving guitar melodies. The Holy Spirit also moves producers to combine specific sounds with rhythmic beats that will take its listeners on a spiritual journey the way the best Christian worship music does.
The problem is that dance music as a generality is associated with the sins of the club world rather than the amazing spirit behind the songs being played. Christian dance music producers such as Andy Hunter, Shiloh, Tim Richards, Joel Armstrong, Stryke, Kenneth Thomas and Topher Jones are all composing chart topping tracks that carry God’s spirit into a world that is often left untouched by the Christian world. So to ask “what is the best Christian dance music?” and expect a list of artists as clear-cut as “what is the best rock band?” is an under appreciation of what makes a powerful dance track.
To find the best Christian dance music, whether you’re looking for overtly Christian lyrics over a dance beat, or a spiritual dance song with no lyrics, it’s best to expand your mind and stop looking in the Christian music section of your chain music store. Christian dance communities such as Tastyfresh.com and Godsdjs.com will give you a little insight into a world that you’re probably missing out on. The internet is a great way to discover Christian dance labels all over the world. Do a search, open your mind and enjoy the journey.
This Friday’s Dance Video!
Just when I thought I might have to retire my current streak of funny Friday dances…good ol’ GummyBear saves me. Not sure what I’m talking about? Well you’ve got to watch this. I must admit, the song is a bit catchy! Happy Friday friends!! (As usual, if you can’t see a video below, click over to my actual blog: Proverb31girl)
Music Tuesday Spotlight:MK837
This week I am excited to give you a deeper look at the brand new music label, MK837. You may be hearing the buzz about this label through facebook, twitter and Tastyfresh but I’m here to bring you the first interview with the artists behind this God-inspired project.
Real Names:
DR: Dave Richards… oh wait my real name… David Richardson
KN: Kevin Neely
CR: Chris “deeflash” Reiche
Label Name:
MK837
Genre of Music:
Electronic Dance Music (Breaks, House, Tech house, Progressive House)
How this label came to be:
DR: I’m sure we all have a different story. For me, it was a
combination of wanting a new challenge and answering the encouragement
given by Joseph Mercado of Next Dimension Music and many in the
community at Tastyfresh.com. There of course was this other issue that
I could never find the right label to shop tracks to. It’s not that
I’m a no talent hack, but that my “sound” is just different from the
labels I kept shopping tracks to.
KN: I’d previously had stints running BTU Recordings and Tektak Music.
For various reasons, neither label really worked out. Dave had
mentioned starting a record label several years ago, so I decided it
was a good idea to have a go with Dave. Chris is really skilled at his
craft as well, so it only made sense to include him as well.
CR: Like Dave, I had been producing a bunch of really great tracks
that were having a hard time getting signed for labels because they
didn’t sound like every other track the label had already signed.
Rather than compromising my sound, I felt it was time to start
releasing my tracks myself but I did not want to sacrifice
distribution by only being able to put my tracks on a limited amount
of sites. After talking with Dave and Kevin, I found that were all in
similar situations and pooling our experience together made the most
sense.
What is the Purpose/Vision for your label? Explain:
DR: Overall, it’s simple: Good music with a high level of integrity.
We want to our fans and our artists to feel that we are on the level
with them and providing them quality music and well… service in the
case of the artist.
KN: Our label exists to be an example of how to run a successful label
and maintain a certain standard of quality, be it musical quality or
professional quality. Labels like NDM have set the bar for what a
label run by Christians should be. We hope to use their example and
raise the bar yet again.
CR: I feel that our label exists also as an outlet to reach out into a
community where it is sometimes rare to find individuals who care
about helping people succeed rather than labels that are only trying
to make themselves succeed. I feel that being people of integrity and
working with others with honesty will shine a light into the dance
music community.
Where do you see the label in 3 years? 5 years? 10 years?:
DR: Either thriving or gone. Either way… without debt. Ideally, on
Beatport.com. It would be cool to be on Sasha’s regular top 10 or
something like that. The bottom line though is that if we have a good
product, good marketing and a good reputation, we should be around and
thriving nicely for a very long time.
KN: I think we can be a very successful label in three years.
Everything’s in place to make it happen. We just have to keep
polishing our perfection, so to speak. There’s no reason any music
label shouldn’t be successful. Sometimes, you just have to step back
and determine what’s going wrong. If we fail, it’s because we didn’t
properly analyze our shortcomings.
Would you put out “Non-Christian” music? What qualities will you look for in an artist?:
DR: Yes. Yes we will release “non-Christian” music and even some music
written by non-Christians as well. What we won’t do is put something
out that rubs wrong up against Philippians 4:8. We don’t exist to
exclude. We’re a label run by Christians with integrity. We’re not a
Christian label that is only concerned with pleasing Christians who
are looking for music by other Christians. Kevin will speak more to
this, but what qualifies you as an artist we want to sign is good
music that I’m not afraid to let my wife and son listen to AND at the
same time, it must be able to destroy the dancefloor.
KN: Absolutely! Christ didn’t just speak in church, did he? If we’re
to reach the world, we have to be in the world. Just because you’re in
the world doesn’t mean you have to be of the world. That doesn’t mean
we’re going to allow just anyone on our label though. There are
certain production standards that have to be met in order for us to
release. Being the gatekeeper of the label, so to speak, I’m looking
for crisp production, clean sounds, quality content, and style within
the scope of the label.
CR: I agree, in order for us to reach the world for Christ, we cannot
pick and choose who we “accept” into our circles and who we exclude.
God is giving us a voice into the dance music culture and in order to
reach that culture we need to be able to work with all sorts of people
and show them what Christ’s love is like.
What are the benefits of working with MK837?:
DR: For us? None. It’s all work. Especially right now. For the
artists, it’s a chance to work with people who will do what they say
they are going to do.
KN: We’re going to do our best to give the artist a fair shake. Plus,
free donuts on Thursdays!
CR: Kevin, I will be expecting fresh donuts delivered to my door on
Thursday morning.
What can we expect to see from the label in it’s first few months?:
DR: I just finished reviewing our releases for the next few months.
You’ll see a lot from the three of us. Later in the year though, we’ll
be expanding our releases to include both new and familiar faces.
KN: Lots of really cool stuff! Just keep checking back on mk837.com to
be up to date. Also, join us on facebook at facebook.com/mk837
CR: Like Dave said, we’re gonna be releasing a lot of stuff from the
three of us that we’ve been holding on to and are ready to release to
the wild. In the months following those releases, we’ll have some
really solid releases from some other great artists.
What are you most excited about?:
DR: Learning how to do something new and putting to use what I’ve
learned over the past few years running Tastyfresh.com and promoting
my own music. It’s just a new adventure for me with some new benefits.
KN: Having a successful project with people I respect, whom I also get
to call friends. I’m also excited about not having to do everything
myself, which is taking a bit of getting used to. Ha!
CR: I’m excited about getting these tracks out that are some of my
best yet. I’m really looking forward to working with some new artists
and helping them get their music out there.
Links to your music/Contact you:
www.mk837.com is all you need to know. From there you will find
demo submission information, our social networking pages, the latest
news, release information, Kevin’s free album and more.
Anything else you want my readers to know:
DR: I’ll take the 5th on this.
KN: I’m listening to “The Cardigans” while typing this.
CR: Sidechain your basslines.
Another Friday Dance!
I’m on a role here. Fridays seem to be silly dance/video day. I didn’t want to disappoint you so I’ve got another great one today. It’s Elijah Wood on the kid’s show Yo Gabba Gabba. The dance is called “The Puppet Master.” “GO CRAAAAAZY!!!”
Happy Friday ya’ll! (As usual, if you’re in a reader you might not see the video below so click here to go to my site: Proverb31girl
Music Tuesday:Mark Roach
Sunday morning during our praise & worship service my ears, heart & soul were introduced to a new song. It’s not a new song as it came out in 2007 but to me, it was brand new and real exciting. It’s the passionate, energetic voice of Mark Roach
singing “A Thousand Hallelujahs.” To be honest, I’d never heard of Mark Roach until this week but I’m a fan now! This praise & worship artist has an album of songs that will immediately but your heart in a place of worship and your mind in a state of peace. Not into the whole “Christian Praise & Worship” genre? Give it a shot anyway. For me.
Happy Friday – Just Dance!!
In the spirit of it being Friday and The Gates being in 1 week, get up out of your seat and just dance (or watch these kids dance)!!!

New for 2010!!
Hello bloggy friends. I’ve been a bit under the weather lately and therefore will not be posting anything music related this week. Instead, I’d like to give you a quick look at the exciting things to come in 2010!
Blog Related:
- A redesign! As much as I love the color scheme and logo I have now – I believe it’s time for something fresh and relevant to where this blog has gone in 2009. For those of you who subscribe through a reader or email, you probably don’t look at my actual site much. But take a look now, it won’t be the same for much longer! www.proverb31girl.com
- A new name! Years ago I started an online journal named “me4thought.” So when I started this blog, I wanted to somehow link my commonly used name “proverb31girl” with my old writing slate “me4thought.” This produced the very wordy blog name “me4thought: the life and thoughts of a proverb31girl.” 2009 was a big year for me as far as networking and writing goes, so in 2010 my blog name will truncate to the easy to remember (and now well known), Proverb31girl.
- More music! New Music Tuesday has been very successful, especially with the most recent addition of Music Spotlights, so expect more more more! More CD reviews, more interviews and new for 2010, concert and venue news!
- Guest writers! I’d really like to have some different voices funneling through the blog. Different topics. Different opinions. Different lifestyles. If you enjoy writing and are interested in being a contributing writer – please let me know your ideas! See the “contact me!” page to do so.
Life Related:
- Here’s the official announcement if you haven’t heard it already, July 3, 2010 I’ll officially be a mommy! Don’t worry, I’m not going to turn this into a mommy blog…just a mom who likes to write.
- Hubbie will have a new job! Location TBA.
- We’re moving! It might be to a different place in the same town or it might be out of state. We’re not sure yet. But we do know that it’s time for a bigger place!
- Road trips! Pregnancy (hopefully) won’t hold me back from visiting Club Worship and The Gates pre-baby and a few other places post-baby. Our kid is going to love dance music whether he/she likes it or not
Well that’s about all the updates I have right now. I hope you’re as excited as I am for this journey. 2010 is going to be a great year of change and new beginnings.
To be continued,
Jess/Proverb31girl
Music Tuesday Spotlight:House of Heroes
If you’ve taken a look around my blog it won’t take you long to figure out that I’m a huge House of Heroes fan. So imagine the excitement I’m feeling at this very moment…today I get to share with you an interview I did with Lead Singer/Guitarist, Tim of House of Heroes! I hope you enjoy this little behind the scenes look at a very talented guy in a very talented band! And don’t forget to check out their music using the links below.
Name: Tim Skipper (vox/guitar)
Band: House of Heroes
Genre: Rock
How/Why You Became a Musician: I wasn’t allowed to listen to rock music growing up, so in 6th grade the bad kid in my class made me a mix tape of ac/dc and pearl jam and I was hooked for life!!! After that I talked my mom into getting me a guitar, met some great people, discovered MxPx and started playing music!
Is There a Purpose/Vision to your music? Explain: Of course! If you’re creating art without trying to convey something, what’s the point? We want to create music that is catchy and accessible but still has integrity and depth. For us, it’s an expression of deeper things that we can’t explain any other way. It’s a chance to connect with something deeper. We make music because we love each other and we found an outlet of expression that is communal and bigger than ourselves. We also share a lot of the same beliefs and philosophies. We try to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and we believe that He is the son of God and the way he lived his life (suffering with humanity and serving) is the best way to live. Or try to live at least. It’s hard
Best/Favorite Music-related Experience (doesn’t have to be related to your music): Getting to play with some of our favorite bands in the WORLD!!! MxPx was the first band that we all really “fell in love” with. We got to tour with them for a few weeks in 2005. Surreal. Also, Silverchair has made 3 of my favorite records of all time and we got to play 4 shows with them in 2007. Never EVER thought we’d be able to do something like that!
What did you grow up listening to? Lots of classic rock. I never realized how much it influenced me until recently. The bands I really LOVED were MxPx, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, and Collective Soul. These days I LOVE Queen, The Beatles, Muse, Tom Petty and Electric Light Orchestra.
Your music sounds like (ie: other bands/DJs people might like): I’d say we sound like a modern version of our favorite classic rock bands. Like Foo Fighters meets Queen with a pretty heavy Muse and Beatles influence.

Anything else you want my readers to know: We’re about to go in and record a new album! It’s slated to come out in June 2010 and it’s going to be your favorite record EVER!!! Also, get into LOST if you aren’t already!!! It is so dang good!!!
Music Tuesday Spotlight:Kevin Oneel
This week I’m excited to introduce you to Kevin Oneel from Birmingham, Alabama. He’s great guy with a great vision and (not to mention) a great live radio show Friday nights on boost.fm!
Real Name: Kevin Neely
Band/DJ/Artist Name: Kevin Oneel, Aesias Finale, No Future Fan Club, Harry Hotspur
Genre of Music: House, Electro, Breaks, Electronica
How/Why You Became a Musician: I was the A/V geek in high school. I also always had an interest in music. When I was a kid, I used to record music from my parents old records and pretend that I was a DJ on a radio show. Now, I do the same thing, except with my own music and I occasionally get paid for it.
Is There a Purpose/Vision to your music? Explain: Honestly, I just do what comes naturally. I don’t like to act like there’s some big, purpose-filled mission to my music. I simply try to use the talents God has given me to their fullest. Along the way, I hope I get the chance to show God’s purpose for all of us to those who might be receptive. Being a DJ/Producer has given me the ability to reach people I may have never been able to reach. It provides that common ground I need to speak to people. I’m a pretty introverted person by nature, so having a bit of a persona helps me reach out. Goes to show you God can use all types, yes? Know who else was introverted and had a hard time speaking to people? Moses. Not comparing myself to Moses by any means, but it does go to show that God helps us overcome our weaknesses for His glory.
Best/Favorite Music-related Experience (doesn’t have to be related to your music): I’d say it was hanging out on the beach in Gulf Shores, AL with Shiloh. Colin and Justin Moreh are like my horribly removed brothers. We spent the morning standing around on the rather windy beach, talking about all sorts of things. Sometimes, it’s not about specific music happenings, but rather things that happen because of music.
What did you grow up listening to? Everything! My mother’s side of the family is quite musical. My mom plays piano, trumpet and accordion. My grandmother played the piano. My grandfather was a pretty good guitar player, but was mostly into radio and recordings. Dad’s side liked music, but lacked the talent mom’s side had. I grew up listening to old 45′s and 33′s and whatever was on the radio.
Your music sounds like (ie: other bands/DJs people might like): Fatboy Slim, Crystal Method, Prodigy, 3!OH!3, Fischerspooner.
Links to your music/Contact you: Just go to Facebook and search “Kevin Oneel Unlimited” and http://www.boost.fm/kevinoneel
Anything else you want my readers to know: People are wayyyyy too serious with music. Create music and listen to music that makes you happy. None of us are guaranteed our next breath, so don’t waste what God has given you. Also, remember to use whatever talents you’ve been given.
Music Tuesday Spotlight:Joel Armstrong
This week I have the privilege of sharing my interview with Vancouver’s Joel Armstrong. I’ve known Joel for a few years now and have always enjoyed his music. I hope you will too!
Real Name: Joel Armstrong
Band/DJ/Artist Name: Joel Armstrong
Genre of Music: House Music (electronic)
How/Why You Became a Musician: I first heard electronic music in 1994 and to this day it never fails to excite me. I love how depending on the melody or groove of each track, the experience can be different each time. I appreciate the complexity of writing music and when I hear music that has been written with care and an understanding of the audience, there’s just something amazing about it to me. I started messing around with writing music in 2002 when I was lonely in a new city, it seemed natural to me and one of the only things that could keep my attention for more than a half-hour at a time haha.
Is There a Purpose/Vision to your music? Explain: The purpose has evolved slowly over time from more of a fun hobby to a vocational goal. There’s a lot of risk but for some reason I get energized by the challenge to do well and succeed. I feel there’s a place for me in the whole mess of club nightlife, I get a lot of chances to talk about my faith even though at times I fail. People warm up to me, are much more open when they see that having faith in Jesus doesn’t make me more important or better than them.
Best/Favorite Music-related Experience (doesn’t have to be related to your music): I think my favorite music-related experience is actually coming next month when I’ve been asked to play a couple festivals down in New Zealand, one for New Years Eve called Rhythm & Vines, and the other a festival called Parachute.
What did you grow up listening to? I grew up listening to John Michael Talbot, Richard Clayderman, John Denver, Nicolas de Angelis and Michael Card.
Your music sounds like (ie: other bands/DJs people might like): Um, I dunno. It changes all the time haha. Um, artists/DJs I love though: Butch, Nima Gorji, DJ PP, Reboot, Ramon Tapia, John Digweed

Anything else you want my readers to know: Shortlist of my all time favorite movies: UP, WALL-E, The Scarlet Pimpernel, The Fall, The Mission, Star Wars: A New Hope, Return of the Jedi, The Empire Strikes Back, Little Miss Sunshine, Pan’s Labyrinth, The Royal Tenenbaums, Slumdog Millionaire, Princess Bride, The Life Aquatic, Rushmore, This is Spinal Tap, Snatch, Lock Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels, Pride & Prejudice (Colin Firth version)
New Music Tuesday:David Crowder Band
I must admit, a few years ago, I wasn’t the biggest fan of the David Crowder Band. But my experience seeing them/worshiping with them live at Cornerstone 2007 changed my mind. If you haven’t given them a try yet, now is really the time. They recently released their latest album, Church Music
Not convinced yet? How about the fact that they covered Flyleaf’s “All Around Me” in a way I never would have thought possible. And just 3 tracks later break out into a FUNKy Daft Punk-like dance track appropriately named “Dance.” Check out some of the tracks below!
Music Tuesday Spotlight:Fitzpatrick
I’m extremely excited to introduce you to one of my favorite artists, who I just happen to be friends with! Meet Fitzpatrick from Birmingham, Alabama
Real Name: Fitzpatrick Mauldin
Band/DJ/Artist Name: Fitzpatrick
Genre of Music: Progressive / House / Techno / Various Electronic
How/Why You Became a Musician: My love for music started first through movies and listening to classical music with my dad. Years later, after getting into video games, I discovered electronic music in an old game called Star Control II. I wanted to create music that sounded like that. I never actually made music just like that game because well, it was utter cheese. But it inspired me to get into playing keyboard and guitar which is where I started from. I loved the idea of creating worlds that people could get lost in made of sound.
Is There a Purpose/Vision to your music? Explain: It has always been my aim in music to be a vessel. I personally put my faith in something higher than myself which I believe to be the one true God. I am merely a short stop for this music to take before reaching the ears of others. My aim is creating worlds, not just sound, places that when people listen they are transported into another reality so to speak.
Best/Favorite Music-related Experience (doesn’t have to be related to your music): This is a really hard one since I have been blessed to have so many experiences, but still one of the greatest nights of my life was in a small club in Atlanta called “The Mark.” John 00 Fleming was playing to about 500 sweaty energetic people. The connection between the audience and “J00f” was incredible and that is what kick started me to get back into music production after a 2 year hiatis.
What did you grow up listening to? As a child most of what I listened to was classical music on NPR (Composers like Bach, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Wagner, Brahms). Later on though I got a lot into industrial rock (Circle of Dust, Mortal, Nine Inch Nails, Front 242, Aleixa) and alternative music (even some metal). As I grew into adulthood I went back and started listening to a lot of 80′s music which is a big influence on my production as well.
Your music sounds like (ie: other bands/DJs people might like): I would say that if you are a listener of artists such as Sasha, Gareth Emery, Nick Warren, Shiloh, or the like, then you will enjoy what I work on. Lately I’ve been fascinated with combining Progressive House, Electro, Tech-Tribal, Synthpop and some breaks into a cauldron of mind twisting sound.

Anything else you want my readers to know: I think it is important for everyone to know that, God I think your doing a great job and all, I’m gonna let you finish and all, but Sega had the best Genesis of all time. Well, not really just kidding.
But I would like to say, just because something is not perceived to be popular does not mean that it is not good. Next time someone makes an ignorant statement like “techno is so 1990′s” or “people don’t like that music anymore” take a look at the world around you. People can only be into what they are exposed to, if you love something then you should share it with those closest to you. That goes with anything, not just music.
Music Tuesday Spotlight: DJ Modulation
This week I had the privledge of interviewing someone I met this summer, DJ Modulation from Arizona. I really enjoy his music and think that you will too. So here we go, an inside spotlight on a great Christian DJ.
Real Name: Sandro Porres
Band/DJ/Artist Name: I go by many names…but I’m not like the other “goes by many names”. DJ Modulation is what I’ve kind of gone by for my solo/live PA sets. But I have two Christian Electronic bands: Modular 7 and KriSand. I also do remixes for other artists under my real name, Sandro Porres.
Genre of Music: The various sides of electronic music.
How/Why You Became a Musician: I was always around music and instruments. Pretty much from birth, if not before, lol. So I guess I was just meant to be doing this.
Is There a Purpose/Vision to your music? Explain: Yes! Very much. I’m on a mission. It’s a spiritual warfare mission for souls. I really believe that all music seeps into the subconscious and can very much influence us. That’s why It’s important for me to promote a good message and positive lyrics that point the way towards Jesus. Some of the remixes I do are not by Christians artists. But I am, so my hope is that people will still find a way to at least wonder why I like Jesus so much.
Best/Favorite Music-related Experience (doesn’t have to be related to your music): I’ve had so many. But I’d have to say the best experiences are when people genuinely get lifted up by the message.
What did you grow up listening to? I grew up listening to pretty much all types of music. From the Beatles to led zeppelin. Stryper and Amy Grant. Metalica..Classical, Dance music….
Your music sounds like (ie: other bands/DJs people might like): I’m influenced by royksopp, depeche mode…so some of that probably comes out in my music.
Links to your music/Contact you: www.myspace.com/djmodulation
Anything else you want my readers to know: I believe it all starts from God, our creator. You don’t have to look far, and everywhere you look, you will see how creative God is. He is the ultimate artist. From amazing sunrises to sunsets. To our planet and universe. The human body and all living creatures. God’s masterful artistry is everywhere and in everything.
So with that in mind, I feel that humans make God happy when we are creative too. I imagine God smiling and enjoying all his little creations attempts at creativity. I actually think that God wants us to be creative and has put a little different talent in all of us. It’s sort of each persons purpose to discover these talents and use them in a way that serves a good and Godly purpose.
I just want to thank Sandro for taking the time to share a bit more about himself and his music. Please take the time to check him out: www.myspace.com/djmodulation and download his set from Cornerstone Afterhours 2009: http://tastyfresh.com/rokdownloads/podcasts/specials_ah2009_djmodulation.mp3
