# Aaron Smiths Dancin Aaron Smiths Dancin is a 2004 house track by DJ Aaron Smith featuring Luvli that found a second life through a 2013 KRONO remix. The remix became the audio backbone for anime edits, Simpsons parodies and countless meme videos across YouTube, Twitter and Instagram. ## Overview Aaron Smiths Dancin is the shorthand meme name for "Dancin'", a house track produced by DJ Aaron Smith with vocals from singer Luvli, first released on Moody Recordings in 2004[1]. The version most people know is not the original but a 2013 remix by French producer duo KRONO, whose smoother, more melodic edit turned an obscure club record into an internet audio staple[2]. The track is recognizable for Luvli's airy "dancin', dancin', dancin'" hook layered over a soft house beat, which pairs easily with slow motion, dreamy or comedic visuals. Because the audio is so flexible, it became a go-to backing track for anime edits, cartoon parodies and looping video jokes on YouTube, Twitter and Instagram[3]. ## How It Spread The first notable meme use came on February 15th, 2015, when a clip of Rikka Takanashi from the anime Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions dancing to the KRONO remix was posted to 4chan's Flash board, later mirrored to YouTube in July 2016[3]. That edit set the tone for how creators paired the song with looping, wholesome or absurd character animations. On May 11th, 2018, Twitter user @anticracy posted a video remix set to the song, framed as a "wholesome edit"[4]. A few weeks later, on June 2nd, 2018, Instagram user @ironic.mp4 uploaded a Simpsons-inspired "Just Give 'Em One of These" edit scored to the same track, pulling in more than 300,000 views and 50,000 likes within a year[5]. From there the audio settled into steady meme rotation: soft transition videos, slow motion pet clips, cartoon dance loops and shitpost edits on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok all reach for the KRONO remix because the hook lands cleanly on any beat drop. ## How to Use A typical Aaron Smiths Dancin edit drops the KRONO remix under a short looping clip, often an anime character, cartoon frame or pet, timed so the "dancin'" vocal hits a movement or reaction. Creators commonly cut to the drop for a punchline visual, then loop the same few seconds. The audio works for both sincere wholesome edits, in the style of @anticracy's 2018 post[4], and for absurd bait-and-switch jokes. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Aaron Smiths Dancin?
