Bmore Club is the result of the cross-pollination of Chicago and Detroit House and Techno of the late 80s and the UK jungle/breakbeat/rave scene of the 90s. Adding in some miami booty bass and the chopped up samples of Ghettotech it results in some gritty stuff.
Paper Planes is clearly one of the most popular songs out there that has the Bmore club influence, produced by Diplo it has the kick and breaks that characterizes alot of Bmore club.
Original Paper Planes
Scottie B Remix
Scottie B is the proclaimed legend of the Bmore sound, and listening at the two versions of Paper Planes you can get an idea of what the sound, well, sounds like.
The Dance
Youtube is totally an anthropological goldmine. Just through youtube one can dive deeply into the most esoteric subculture you can think of.
Within all subcultures of music there is a complementary dance culture that exists. Getting dumb to hyphy, krumping to south central club bangers, dancing real dirty to New Orleans Bounce, or just doing a head nod to "intelligent hip-hop".
The dance that comes with Bmore club has spawned many youtube videos that show whats up in the mid-atlantic.
I like this guy, just kicking it in his apartment complex parking lot.
