May 15, 200916 yr Hi Guys As a lady dancer I thought that backdrops and the like are always done in the "breaks "of the record These day folks seem to drop em in anywhere they like ...I thought it was how each individual interprets the music and the specific tune Therefore adds the backdrops spins etc in any record where theres a break Mand Edited May 15, 200916 yr by Madmandy

Its only certain parts of the record some people dont listen to the music.
