What music do you drive to

[Kep]

Recently i realised i spend around 2 hours a day driving and i always seem to listen to the same stuff so i thought id throw it out there for discussion to see what everyone else listens to while they drive and whether they change music depending on how "enthusuastically" they are driving.

I'll start off, for normally everyday driving im bouncing between a bit of Enter Shikari, The Midnight Beast, and (my geeky sin) The Black Mages. But when im having fun with the motor i seem to slip more towards old school rock/metal

 

[darklord]

Depends on the mood, but usually old school rock / metal.

 

[Loz]

If find my CD of outer Mongolian nose singing suitable for most drives out.

 

[geraint13]

Rock, reggae and a bit of boppy stuff if I'm in the mood to loose a few mpg's

 

[Yugguy]

Dead Letter Circus and Karnivool at the minute.

Thrash Metal for higher speeds. Slayer, 3 inches of Blood, OverKill

 

[Yugguy]

Lol. That reminds me of 2002 when I got stopped doing 96 on the m61. The copper asked me why I was going so fast. I said 'metallica'. I got away with it cos I said it with a wry smile on my face.

 

[HDi fun]

Barbra Streisand is in the changer just now

 

[gwrscoob]

papa roach. blink 182. linkin park. kenny ken. groove rider. pink floyd. the list is endless. if on a good hammer though no music just the engine

 

[T9 man]

For me its mostly Jazz, Soul and Reggae music; if I want to be a little more chilled out while driving then Classical music dominates the iPod :bigsmile:

 

[leddoes]

I always listen light music and pop music, I think you don't like.

 

[turbonutter69]

Try coming down to London and visit the legendary Ronnie Scotts Jazz club, great food and drink and marvellous music by some of the worlds best artists

The Jazz Cafe in Camden have great bands and musicians entertaining you, but the food and drink waiting times are just ridiculous and the toilet facilities are practically medieval :sad2:

 

[Loz]

I like Jazz too, DJ Jazzy Jeff is one my favourites* & I've got lots of jazz magazines too.







I'd like to thank Family Guy for part of that joke.

 

[T9 man]

I've got lots of jazz magazines too

Yes and I still remember what you said you were going to do with those jazz magazines once upon a thread ago!

 

[andyalbone]

hardcore and a bit of dnb in the rover but when in my cars cant really listen to fast music i find it makes me put my put down

 

[Loz]

Oh dear I'm recycling jokes again.

 

[lexus8]

Now you see I'm teaching my six year old daughter to appreciate the finer things in life, she loves a bit of ACDC.

[obi_waynne]

Listening to a lot of electro swing at the moment, plus plenty of latin tunes, JLo Pitball Enrico etc...

 

[Lunchmoney]

Love electro swing.
My current line up includes a lot of mash up music.

 

[TCJBOLDIE]

Haven't a clue about that ^^^^^ but seeing there is a vast age difference between us it's understandable

 

[thexav]

I busted out my classic Rock tracks this week, it felt good. ACDC Def leppard etc...

 

[Lunchmoney]

Mash up is where the instrumental from one song is mixed with the vocals from another. It's an artform in itself as it's very easy to get wrong. Hip hop is popular for this as the vocals should work with any music.
And Electro Swing is a mash up genre
Back when I was a DJ I used to mash up tunes all the time. One of my favourite memories was having a chap come up to me to ask what song I was playing - across my 4 decks I had 3 different riffs on loop and a vocal from Madonna playing out.

 

[TCJBOLDIE]

Lunchy you have only succeeded in confusing me a very senior citizen even more

I'm into country like Willie Nelson, Glenn Campbell, Johnny Cash etc + Beach Boys , The Fureys , John Williamson , Bette Middler , Rod Stewart, Stuff that I can understand and not the heavy metal headbanging stuff but hey we are cool as each to their own OR whatever rocks your boat LOL

 

[obi_waynne]

Electro swing is actually REALLY old stuff, to a modern beat rhythm and style. You'll like it @TCJBOLDIE
