Despite what Mr. Yampell (of "I get my teeth kicked in because I'm sensitive"
fame) says, there is plenty of great danceable music from the 80's.

Bill Nelson - Every Day Feels Like Another New Drug (Vistamix)
Prince - 1999, D.M.S.R, Computer Blue, Controversy
		(D.M.S.R is the really funky song played at the "party" in
		 Risky Business)
Devo - Whip It, Girl U Want, ...
B-52's - Rock Lobster, Private Idaho, Give Me Back My Man, Party Out of Bounds,
		Planet Claire, 52 Girls
Ramones - Sheena is a Punk Rocker, Rockaway Beach, ...
Vapors - Turning Japanese
Tom Tom Club - Wordy Rappinghood, Genius of Love
Funkadelic - One Nation Under a Groove (also George Clinton/P-Funk of any kind)
David Bowie - Scary Monsters
Depeche Mode - New Life, Photograph
Dead Kennedys - Holiday in Cambodia, Viva Las Vegas
Our Daughter's Wedding - Lawnchairs
Michael Jackson - Rock With You, Don't Stop Till You Get Enough
			(avoid Thriller, as it's overused)

That should provide enough for one tape or so.
