Early this year, a new dance craze that made it to YouTube called Harlem Shake.
What is Harlem Shake?
According to Wikipedia, “Harlem Shake” is a song recorded by American DJ and producer Baauer. It was released as a free music download by Mad Decent imprint label Jeffree’s on May 22, 2012. This uptempo song which incorporates a mechanical bassline, Dutch house synth riffs, a dance music drop, and samples of growling-lion sounds.
Last month, when a YouTube video made into an Internet meme of the same name. The overwhelming response to the meme helped increase the single’s sales.
“Harlem Shake” reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100. It went number three in the UK charts and it topped the charts in Australia and New Zealand.
