Biking music

You’ve bought yourself a helmet cam and you’ve videoed your favourite 5 minute bit of singletrack to show your mates/wife/gf/bf/etc. What artist/track would you dub over the top of the video to bring out that singletrack whoop feeling?

lo fidelity allstars- Battleflag

slayer. ‘jesus saves’ and ‘post mortem’.

Mmm. Call me old fashioned, but would like to hear some suggestions for some slightly lighter stuff than metal, punk etc. Seems that all biking video music is set to that sort of thing, so was trying to get some originality from the great and good of STW’ers

The Pussycat Dolls

Murcof – specifically “Louis XIV’s Demons

Gathering moss- Super Furry Animals

If it’s not mad fast technical stuff then something like Boards of Canada might work well.

call me old fashioned, but i still say ‘slayer’… haha!

Don’t Stop me Now – Queen
Radar love – Golden earing
Jessica – Allman brothers
Rain King – Counting Crows
Minesota – Dandy Warhols
Senses working overtime – XTC
Tusk – Fleetwood Mac
Gimme Shelter – Rolling Stones
Maybe Tomorrow – Stereophonics
Just Like Heaven – The Cure
She sells Sanctuary – The Cult

lo fidelity allstars aren’t metal.

How about something by Underworld. Like King of Snake. That’d go well.
Gentler? M83, Sigur Ros, Mogwai..

was trying to get some originality
and someone suggests Queen. Arf.

Impressed by someone mentioning Murcof!

Yackety Sax.

Aqua, Barbie Girl.

aP, just tried Murcof. Think you must be doing a different type of biking to me 😕

Jesus Jones, the Liquidizer album. It used to be my bump skiing tape…. ha, tapes, remember them?

I have to agree. Staring at a black wall in a dark room is about all that matches Murcof

Blame – Stay Forever

With a bit of vid editting to make the breakdowns fit into suitable areas

OK then, how about Nortec Collective

Bit of Flying Lotus or maybe Portishead – Silence….bang on 5.01mins long.

Dead Can Dance – Anywhere out of the World (Within the Realm of a Dying Sun)

Fly-Lo definitely not flowy enough.

How about Cockney Thug by Rusko. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=dWQukgO1X6c

That’s the one, I tell ya.

Last Bongo in Belgium (Grandmaster Flash remix)

Thanks all. Probably showing my age, but not heard of half the stuff suggested so will give them a quick listen via the iTunes library later this evening. Keep them coming

Oh, and IanMunro, thanks for the suggestion of Benny Hill. Didn’t realise we knew each other.

The KLF – Last Train to Transcentral
The Cult – She Sells Sancuary

or this which some of my mates did

QUALITY 😆

I look forward to watching your Cockney Thug soundtracked video tomorrow 🙂

Nickelback – If Today Was Your Last Day

It’s part of the new album ‘Dark Horse’.

Owt by Elgar.

@ DezB

You say that but RobertaFlack by Flying Lotus was on one of the Atherton’s Commencal podcasts a few episodes back

Anyways, final suggestion:

Jehst – Nukeproof Suit

You say that but RobertaFlack by Flying Lotus

Cool. But been done then.

I don’t wanna die, don’t expect me to die.
I’ve got my enemies within my sight.
We’re look through a stain glassed genocide.

I don’t wanna die, don’t expect me to die.
What’s joy without the tears filling our eyes.

Memories of a perfect time.
We dream of nothing or so we say.
We dream of discovering a perfect trail ….

Biffy Clyro The Atrocity
