Dance in Album Draft

Dance is up-tempo and fills the Opener. Most of the pool is mid-sized, so dance is safer at track 1 or track 9 than at track 3 or track 12.

Which slots Dance fills

• The Opener (track 1): it counts as up-tempo.
• Lead Single (track 3) and The Closer (track 12) want your biggest songs, whatever the genre. 1 Dance songs qualify.
• Deep Cut (track 9) wants your smallest song. 25 Dance songs qualify.

Albums score higher when they use fewer genres and more decades, so Dance works best as one of two or three genres spread across several eras. How scoring works.
