Listen on a bunch of different sound systems, if you can make it sound good on a bad system, it will sound great on a tight one (most of the time)

Beats and Basslines are the most important things in a dance track, get those right or it will never feel solid

Layer, Layer, Layer, layer the same patterns with different sounds to phatten it up, then smash all the layers down into one sound and apply the same compression, fx, and eq to tie it together (works great with beats too)

Be Original
