- Cirque du Soleil - Quidam
- Vanessa Carlton - Ordinary Day
- Dave Matthews Band - Ants Marching
- Squaresoft video game soundtracks
- Almost any hip - hop (I'm not a huge fan of the genre but the consistent beats and creative fills can provide perfect music for an upbeat routine with very precise, crisp movements.)
On a side note, I plan to start a juggling group in college where jugglers and musicians improvise simultaneously, both moved by the other artist's work. I think this would be a very successful project, and also fulfilling to the artists involved. Anyone else tried this in the past?

I've found that fiddle music works excellent with Jugglers. Back in 1980, a friend of mine who was a true juggler/entertainer and me traveled throughout the US. I played fiddle songs on a mandolin and he did the juggling.

I find using a drum machine program is nice, then I can get exactly the BPM I am looking for, so I can work on timing. There is a cool program called 'fruity loops' that I use for this.
