Music?

[mixwell]

Does anyone listen to music while they ride? If so, what kind of music gets you pumped to ride? I usually take my Minidisc player(no skipping) on a few of my "cruising" rides. Just curious to see what everyone is listening to.

[X Boarder]

yeah i do sometimes, i listen to pretty much anything. mostly metal/rock though, and songs from BMX videos :D

[mixwell]

what videos do you suggest to a fairly new rider?

[EtniesBMXer03]

what videos do you suggest to a fairly new rider?

The ones you watch on a t.v. :D

[mixwell]

oh, we got a comedian! haha, i just don't want to waste my time on horrible videos, i just want a video to kinda inspire me before i ride.

[Antagonist]

i usually listen to hardcore like champion
and if im riding at night i might listen to some hip hop like aesop rock, slow, laid back and steady

[havoc]

hardcore metal

[justanotherkid]

i listen to any type of music that will get me into a mode or relaxation. so i can flow. i listen to mostly rock that will "make" you nodd your head and you cant stop so you look like a complete idiot.

[Diluted_Acid]

I listen to metal, but most the time, i tend to cruise round the skate park at a slow comfy pace, doing stall combo's etc. Spanish guitar music works well for me, i dunno the artist, just music my friend(a guitarist) gives me.

[vinchenzatron]

to any nubes id recomend bands like slayer ,hatebreed, machine head, fear factory ,anthrax and all sutch bands oh check out raging speedhorn. these bans listened to whilst or just before riding help you to get angry and attack the ramps whith everything you got it helps me to get up when i have a nasty fall too like in a moshpitt you get up streihgt away and go at it harder i love riding im goin right now..oooh i cant wait im gonna listen to hatebreed - last breath its probably the best mood setting tune ever!!
SLAYER!!!!! :twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted:

[stjimmy810]

for me it is always screamo bands like underoath, senses fail, brand new, alexisonfire, etc.

[Smickus]

for me it's just any stereotypical band for a certain genre...


on my mp3 player i have:
dizzee rascal
dido
baby d (early 90's d n b / dance group)

[lowcar100]

i dont like the heavy metal screaming stuff where the singers sound like they are trying to sound like demons... and they dont. they sound like a hungry disabled person (im not trying to offend anyone, my best friends sister is mentaly disabled so i feel for it and notice i didnt use the word "retard"). although sometimes the music on those songs is pretty good.

I like to listen to stuff you can understand and has a consistant non-complicated beat. i hate songs that have like 18 things going for a beat.

i used to listen to rap but i hate it now, its just too commercialized and its pretty much all R&B now. so im a rocker now :rock: lol already growin the hair out w00t. anyway i got about 50 songs on my mp3 and im not gonna list em all so yeah.

[|)eA(|]

i like stuff that nobodys really heard of. i used to like classic rock but now evrybody loves and is wearing ac*lightining bolt)dc shirts so its ***. i like punk bands that mostlikely u wont ahve heard of. ex.no use for a name.

[deritsbrandon]

i'd like to get a ipod shuffle that i could wear on my neck to ride with. cd players don't fit in my pockets and it wouldnt be worth the risk of breaking it.

[Andy G]

I take a 256MB mp3 player sometimes just around the neighborhood. I use my own playlist for it. Usually all teh good songs for riding from my cds.

[lowcar100]

i use a 512 mb mp3 and its plenty loud enough and lasts about a week on a battery for me, if i listen to it every day.

I'm no where near filling it up cause ill over-listen songs and take em off of it and then put a few new ones on.

[Danuel]

I use a 5gb mp3 when i ride. A few songs from riding vids but mostly punk. Mainly bands that are big in america but nearly unheard of in the uk. All american rejects, Fallout Boy, Hot hot heat, Taking Back Sunday. Cant beat a bit of funeral for a friend or red hot chillis while ridin.

[reyesjr02]

I listen to everything. Progressive rock, punk(crust, anarcho, street, oi, etc), metal(viking, melodic death, death, black, folk, progressive, power, thrash, you get the point), jazz, little grunge, grindcore, old school hardcore(not this new metalcore shit), old school hip hop, funk, and tons more....

[ozz]

I really cant stand those little headphones that go in your ear! i just ride when i ride and listen to music when im at home.

[Maiden]

I sometimes take my mp3 player on long rides, i listen to most metal, hardcore, emocore music

i hope you weren't listing those bands as being big in america but 'nearly unheard of' over here because they are actually quite well known...

[Valve Stem]

mainly hip hop (i make hip hop music when I'm not riding), rock, some metal
