Name That Tune

Casa Musica | WDSF Music Partner

As you will recall, WDSF and Casa musica have a partnership agreement in place that has the leading publisher of dance music supply the titles that are played during the decisive stages of the GrandSlams and select WDSF Championships. Generally, these tracks are used for the quarterfinal, semi-final and final, and they are selected by a group of experts from a pool that has been specifically set up for WDSF competitions. The overriding goals being that the quality of the music matches that of the competition and that new titles get featured in top-level WDSF events.

Since an orchestra - and a very good one at that - provides the music live from the quarterfinal of the GrandSlam Moscow, the Casa musica tracks are used in the rounds of 96 and 48. The WDSF Communications team identifies each of the titles played in its YouTube clips with an annotation appearing at the end of the dance. Name, performer and even a link to the Casa musica online shop are included in the comment section of the clips.

Adding this information is a rather time consuming process and it can take a few extra days until the music is properly identified in all clips.
