As mentioned above, ESG and Konk are excellent choices. When I play DJ sets, I often find a good portion of people requesting material like Daft Punk and very fast electronica like µ-Ziq. Then I find a lot of the ladies like club banga's. Catchy, popular rap songs are great, but ensure that you mix it in with a lot of other genres if it's a mixed crowd. Kanye West works very well I find.

And if everyone's REALLY fucked on Codiene, DXM, Dimen, Diphen, etc... then DJ Screw is suitable.

if you're going with zeppelin, swap it out with misty mountain hop. "hops" generally get people to dance, hence the term "sock hop."

But if I were having a party and wanted people to dance, I'd play a bunch of cheese from the '80s. In line with more of what you were asking for, I'd go with Peaches, Cibo Matto, Japanther, My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult, Beastie Boys and Pop will Eat Itself. Siouxsie has a few great danceable tunes as well.

you need these songs for when people wana sit down roll and roll a joint for a second. when alcohol and cocaine is involved, you cant be playing shit to make them dance all night, cant be having people dying of dehydration in ur living room.

that should do for now. remember, never play ultra obscure noise, post punk, free jazz, grindcore to impress people at a party. call me a pussy, but when i throw a party i like to have people go "o man i love this song", guilty pleasures, hip hop, classics, and some more popular songs by lesser known artists are the best way to go, hence the list (this is actually a replica of one of my itunes party lists)

There's some good stuff on that list for sure, but there is also music on it that I don't think would make people dance, nice tunes as they might be.

Then insert Nouvelle Vague, Morcheeba, Air, or loungey type tunes. Nobody wants to listen to a 20-minute song at a party. If anyone is high, they will think "man, this song has been on forever..."

and when everybody's a little more inebriated..

Just to scare the shit out of them. "Satan knows whatcha did!".

I went down to the mountain, I was drinking some wine,
Looked up in the heavens lord I saw a mighty sign,
Writtn fire across the heaven, plain as black and white;
Get prepared, theres gonna be a party tonight.

Uhuh, hey! saturday night!
Yeh, uhuh one more saturday night,
Hey saturday night!
