Practice Music
Each of the following albums are recommended by one of our favorite national DJs, Jesse Miner. He’s selected these artists and albums because they are wonderful to listen to and chock full of great dancing tunes. He has recently joined the Amazon Affiliates program, so now you can go directly to the album on Amazon and check it out.
If you have a favorite album that you’d like to share with fellow dancers, send us an email and we’ll add it to the list.
