    @Pure Energy There is no susch a thing as a best headphone nor a best headphone for dance music. Moreover, since you are asking a totally subjective question, and accordingly, the answers can't be objective. Any of the professional grade open back headphones, and some closed back like the Focal Spirit Pro will do the job. The choice, however, depends on you, and your budget which you failed to mention. My advice is to try as many as you can, and to read reviews that tell you about the build quality. Doing both will help you make an informed decision. BTW, there are lots of threads here in which we have discussed headphones. Indeed, the exact same topic of this thread has been explored already.

    beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 250 Ohms for $120 ish

    you will need a high end audio interface, or a dedicated headphone amp to power them.
    Generally the more Impedance/Ohms the more resolution your low end will have
