KORG have two current workstations out: The M3, and the light version - the M50.
then there is the previous workstation range, the well trusted and reliable Triton series - at the top you will find the Triton Extreme, all the way to the bottom of the market where you find the budget products - the TR, X50, MicroX...

however, if you are looking to make dance or other forms of electronica, I can't recommend a better product than the Radias (or possibly the R3, but either way you will have to work with a computer to get the most out of it as they have no sequencer, and the R3 has no drums), or one of the electribes, which are great pattern-based groove sequencers/synthesizers.

the ES-1 and the newer ESX is based on sample manipulation, whilst the EM-1 and EMX are based on pure synthesis like the Radias mentioned above.

combine any of the above synths or workstations with a Kaoss Pad (KP3) or a mini-KP, would make a fantastic combination.
