A possible dance hit?

LMAO, traditional Dutch folk music combined with Jumpstyle. Awesome, LOL.

Jumpstyle seems to be all the rage with the kids in Holland and Belgium right now. There are 5 Jumpstyle records inside the Top 30 on Holland's Pop chart:

Jumping Jacks "Jumping In The Moonlight" is a take on Toploader's "Dancing In The Moonlight". this might be the one to cross over to the UK charts at some point

And if you know Nelly Furtado's "All Good Things Come To And End" check out the Jump Project's "Whistle"

How I found out about this song:

1) I was watching "NOVA", a show on the Dutch channel VARA (via the internet), and they showed some kind of environmental rally in Westerpark in Amsterdam that seemed to coincide with Live Earth (I don't speak Dutch), and they had a brief clip Jeckyll & Hyde (a group I've never heard of) playing an AWESOME song

2) I look up Jeckyll & Hyde on Myspace, the song happened to be "Freefall"

3) I click the video on their site, which leads me to Youtube, or something like that, and I stumble upon that song.

So yeah, I know about Jumpstyle...and I love it! I don't see why no American CHR stations play it. Once in a rare while, instead of "Party Like a Rockstar" or "Pop, Lock, and Drop It", put "Freefall" on. I'm sure the kids will like it. Or even "Hey Jumpen" for the shock value.
 
I've had the video to Jeckyl & Hyde's first hit, "Frozen Flame", on my page on myspace for ages now - lego people really know how to Jump ;D
