[packastacka12]

thumbs up for his"i love hot moms shirt" but apparently not shuffle history!!! lol

[jemali85]

Aussies should show respect to the American who admits that shuffling originated in Australia. It has been here since the late 80's, and it was only afterward where it starting catching on in countries like Malaysia, Ireland, and America.

Most old skool 'Rockers' were shuffling before you were born.

[Heivang]

Stupid background music

[jkrichard01]

i remember seeing a guy from Melbourne do a similar dance in like 95 at a rave, it had more stompping to it and was pretty erratic.

being part of the original uk dance scene we all witnessed the birth of uk 'ravers' dancing exactly the same as the melbourne shuffle in most clubs in the early 90's mainly by people who were trying to and failing to recreate Leeroys ( the prodigy) style! Never thought i would witness it again, but hey now as a 40 year old at least my 15 year old son will think im cool cause i can 'shuffle' lol

[sapphirehexx]

the shuffle derived from uprock which was an early 80's form of break dance which started in the bronx in nyc by puerto rican nation. u can c an early 80 footage, a movie called Beat Street look it up on youtube.

This aquademon23 is a very angry person.

[Belrial]

Darin Carter knows nothing about the history! And while he knows a little about doing it, he is just so awkward! goto w w w . melbshuffle . c o m for some real tutorials by actual shufflers!

[aquademon23]

@Belrial wtf, dude! the reason it looks so awkward is because he's slowing it down for those of us who can't learn it just by watching. If he wasn't slowing it down, we might as well watch some video of how someone is showing off how good they can do it! So why don't you quit hating and STFU!

[aquademon23]

@Belrial WTF, dude! He looks awkward because he's slowing it down for us to watch and LEARN! If we could learn watching at full speed we might as well learn from someone who is just showing off how well THEY can do it. However this is NOT the case! So why don't you just take a sec to think about it and STFU!

[aquademon23]

@Belrial WTF, dude! he only looks awkward cuz hes slowing it down for us who dnt know how to do it, thts the point of the TUTORIAL! So think abt it, and STFU!

[gemminNumber1]

i <3 hot moms hahaha

[Zamorak161]

thank you Expert Village.He's really expert you know.

[coasterfreak8989]

haha nice shirt

[DjHoimark]

Fail.. It's VERY much english...

[Don0chi0cho]

true..its way gay..i say aussie accent is the shit

[taylorb999]

Actually you are all wrong. It started in England late 1646, when a pirate on the south coast going by the name Melvin Bornne (Mel Born..Melbourne) used to drink in the shufel bar (shufel meaning a submerged green parot,..a form of the highest disrespect to submerge someones parot, usually in a large beer glass), and when drunk and trying to escape the authorities he was known for his quick pace, however on the beer covered floor Melvin time and time again appeared to 'run on the spot'.

[RMO6701]

is this true i would like to research the history behind this....

[MexxProtect]

yes its true. legend has it that the city guards froze in awe of melvins moves on the wet floor. they were so hypnotic that everyone else in the bar started chanting in a deep 140-150 bpm bassline...

[Klingschor]

@MexxProtect

hahaha, lol, I'm gonna start telling that story!

[carlschar]

hahahaah! good one.

[ToiletGreece]

what a crock of shit.

[kalalit]

This guy completely sucks!!! Expert Village sucks!!! All they're videos on "HOW TO" do anything are crap! Why do anyone wanna learn from them.

This guy can't explain shit even it it was on his tongue.

[antonio9104]

[freerunningmoe]

[NIBent]

[zilchuary]

Actually, the shuffle was around in the 80's in Britain.

[iplaycss]

no it wasnt u dumb shit

[cannonbulk]

And it was in Melbourne in the 70's :O wow 10 years before britain.

[matthewung]

This guy barely knows the history of it.

It was first called stomping in Melbourne Australia during early 90's (Acid House era) and was an underground dance style until the other cities began to adopt it and called it the Melbourne Shuffle.

The dance style is a very freestyle form which encourages experimentations, freedom of moves and expression.

The earliest known footage is a video from 1991 at the Sarah Sands Hotel - Look it up on youtube "Earliest known shuffle".

[ShufflersOfCanada]

@matthewung The reason for the original name of Stomping was because of its origins in Wooden Clog dancers, and it looked more like a stomp than a slide.

Melbourne Shuffle OldSkool has a brief history posted for all those who are even remotly interested

[aquademon23]

@matthewung he already said he was going to give us a BRIEF history of Melbourne shuffle. that usually means it ISN'T detailed!

[FucKatiee]

@aquademon23 dude SHUT UP. lol.

[aquademon23]

@matthewung He just said he was going to give us a BRIEF history. This usually means it ISN'T that detailed, you idiot!

[aquademon23]

@matthewung In the beginning of the video he CLEARLY said he was going to give us a BRIEF history of the Melbourne shuffle. This usually means NOT very detailed, you idiot! You know, some people were dropped as a baby. YOU were clearly thrown at a WALL!

[coyoteEduardo]

@aquademon23 haha thats awsome

[jjgamerboy]

@matthewung cant find the video :(

[matthewung]

@jjgamerboy

Yeah its gone. I tried to look for it recently as well.

[BLSfoLIFE]

@matthewung hey mr. hipster fag: Thats exactly what he said.

[SCAM918]

@matthewung

You said the same thing with the exclusion of the video reference.

[Shuffelz]

[Jimz021]
