Any good tunes out there to either listen to while flying, or to put behind videos

Saw a flexifoil vid where they put "high" by feeder in and it seemed to fit really well...
Also heard a song on the radio that made me think of flyin, it was "reach for the sky" by social distortion... let me know any others!

Flexifoil demoday (high by feeder, 2nd song)

Reach for the sky

I'm a big fan of "Fly Away" by Lenny Kravitz also, "Alive" by P.O.D.

I prefer music without lyrics, Thievery coorporation, Fila Brazilia, Mr Scruff, Kruder and Dorfmeister.....all good stuff.

Until my flying technique improves, I might have to look into Collections of Polka Hits, or Three Stooges soundtracks, (complete with percussive sound effects)....:wink2:

As some of the video sites are cracking down on DRM, this might be of interest to those doing video work on a regular basis:

lad.... that is funny :D:D

Yeah amazon is a good place to start for sound bytes, usually about 60 seconds of each song. iTunes has the same.

Thievery has about 8-10 albums, my favorites: Radio Retaliation, Outernational sound, and Richest man in Babylon

K&D check out Sessions, and DJ-Kicks (albums)

Fila Brazilia, every album is good but Black Market Gardening and Brazilification are my favorites.

Mr Scruff only has a couple albums that I know of and they are both good.

If you insist on Lyrics, check out Spoon, OK Go, Black Keys, and the god-father of soul James to the M-effin Brown.

Folks, to put forbidden soundtracks on YouTube vids, you just gotta do a little, intermittent mix with the videos background audio. You can even do this in Windoze Movie Maker.

Have the WHOOSH, WHOAS and WHAMS drift in and out over the soundtrack, esp. in the beginning. With the right, subtle blend, you may beat the dreaded DRMbots (unless they're a lot more sophisticated than I thought!).

I've recently gotten interested in Tool. It is one of the few bands I can listen to while working that doesn't distract me from my work but I can still enjoy it in the background. I also thought it would be enjoyable in the buggy or while flying for the same reason. Its there but not "in your face".

Wind noise and singing lines - what better music?
One of my pet peeves is people who make motorbike video then feel the need to 'enhance' it with some rubbish music ...!

techno music makes you go fast

Very true, that's what I resort to every time I'm feeling a little backed-up.

APC (a perfect circle) it is tool spawn ...maynard on the vocals

sloth is always refreshing

lyric free is preferred sometimes , most any ambient

phuture primitive, buddha lounge, buddha garden

lately i like to work on my classic guitar cord changes on the subconscious level while working on something else

Dig the tool! big tool fan myself, its usually playing in the truck on the way to the fields...

Bigben i listened to some of the Radio Retaliation album last nite and its pretty sweet... reggae is best for me when im just crashed out and want to veg... mmm old days when i "crash out" and listen to 'the joint' on XM... mmmm

PHREERIDER: Aside from APC and sloth, ive never heard of any of those! gotta look into those!

I will say i had some metal cranked up yesterday on the way out to fly and that got me all psyched to try some new stuff... a little Slipknot and Five Finger Death Punch will get you amped enough to try anything!!

augustin barrios mangore-la catedral-prelude c minor-el sueno la floresta-estudio #1---villa lobos--etudes #1-2-6-11-12 and preludes #1-2-4----bach--BVW999--prelude in d--bouree--etc--robert de visee--famous suite in d--fantasia by mudarra--soleares by turina--pretty much all classical guitar--albeniz-tarrega-guiliani etc etc

A bunch of my favorites:

went boarding yesterday at lunch and threw in some CKY on the ol' ipood ... good mix!
if it works for skateboarding vids, it works for ATB boarding

Thumbs up to the Tool fans, The older the cd the better.
Now extreme kiting needs extreme toons!!!!!!
Its gota be METAL
Lamb of God....ruin
As I Lay Dying......nothing left
Devil Driver.......clouds over california
Anything Pantera......

like i said, Slipknot is great for this stuff... need to break out as i lay dying... that'd be sweet

Hey Sailors,

I have lots of time to buggy.
It's a big lake bed and I am slow.


Safen Up! Buggy On!

"Often wrong... Never in doubt"

the coreylama

Ok don't laugh but I have this ritual as I take thr exit to my playground and I put on. Sinatra. "Come fly with me". helps with the butterflies in stomach as I see the trees swaying

lol those 3 are the only ones ive heard of... i like marley and Santana... but ill skip the chris isaak... "no, iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii dont wana fall in love" hot chick in the video tho

and dgkid78:
Sinatra is the man! Ive got tons of his music... havent took him out flying, but he has made some good tunes for sure!

I agree with the old school. Just go so far back the BOTS won't recognize it.

Especially if the artist has long been gone.

The only ones that are recognized are from the artist that asked for this from youtube. So I’ve read somewhere.

The Bakerton Group - instrumental from the members of Clutch

Yes oh yes to all of these. My fav Lamb of God is Descending.
I just did a video that starts out with Mozart's symphony #4 and cuts to Mower-Road Rage right as I have an OBE (camera angle from the hand held 100 yards away and then me getting yanked over the top of my on board cam.) I just watch that part over and over and laugh like a little girl. Once my friends band Ditch Digger gets more recording done, I have permission to use their stuff- bluesy southern style crunch with a little punk. Think Down meets Clutch.

Going to see Clutch in July and Down in Aug in SF
Temptations Wings by Down or Sea of Destruction by Clutch would be good

Lots of good choices from everbodies input. Was just thinking about doing some vids and adding some tunes. My all time fav to get stoked is "Higher" by Creed turned up so my two 12inch subs push enough air to launch a kite.
