FIRST Music
 

I want to know what's your favorite FIRST song? For ex. Don't Stop Believing by Journey seems to be a big around here!

Re: FIRST Music
 

Sandstorm - Darude

epic sax guy - no doubt

Re: FIRST Music
 

Either this or this.

Here's the sordid backstory.

Re: FIRST Music
 

I see that Sandstorm - Darude has already been spoken for.

We also would happen to be a fan of Basshunter, particurally I Can Walk on Water.

Generally anything techno-y for our team. Basshunter, Daft Punk, Deadmau5, and I'm trying to get them into some Skrillex.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Popcorn (Techno Remix) - Hot Butter. Look it up on youtube.

Re: FIRST Music
 

"I Gotta Feeling" by Black Eyed Peas.

I've heard it so many times at regionals. Plus, completely appropriate.
Tonights gunna be a good, good niiiight~

Re: FIRST Music
 

I highly anticipate me being able to say that "The Final Countdown" is one of the best FIRST Songs, because that means I got to the finals.

Really good tension builder for the final matches, especially when there are underdogs vs established teams.

Re: FIRST Music
 

CRAZY FROG!! Gota love it. Or cotton eye joe.

Re: FIRST Music
 

I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet!

I call ThunderStruck, by ACDC! :D

Re: FIRST Music
 

Last year it was the Casino Royale soundtrack, now it's Dan Mangan.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Sirius by The Alan Parsons Project.

Re: FIRST Music
 

"The Geeks Will Inherit The Earth" by I Fight Dragons. It totally fits :D

Re: FIRST Music
 

DAFT PUNK! And of course, The Prodigy. They're a great techno group.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Re: FIRST Music
 

Best FIRST associated song.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Best finals song!!!

Re: FIRST Music
 

If this season doesn't feature Sweet Georgia Brown heavily in the playlists, I'm quitting.

Also the entire Space Jam soundtrack.

Re: FIRST Music
 

YES. That, or Winter Wrap Up. Because I'm a brony.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Mr. Roboto..?

Re: FIRST Music
 

If you are going to start going towards MLP music, I would recommend "For the New Lunar Republic" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf0tYs5U5RI
For actual FIRST music, my favorite has to be Sandstorm. I swear, they play that song 5 times a day at the Michigan district competitions...

Re: FIRST Music
 

Well we have a nice set of cds playing in our basement while working and our favorites include Daft Punk, Ke$ha, LMFAO, 3oh!3, Justice, and Pirates of the Caribbean Soundtrack.

Re: FIRST Music
 

"You Too As Well" by Pete Calandra

http://freeplaymusic.com/search/cate...h.php?t=v&i=28

It's song 4. You'll know what it is when you hear it.

Re: FIRST Music
 

I had never even thought to wonder if that was the beginning of an actual song, I thought it was just a sound byte that was specifically for FIRST!

Re: FIRST Music
 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPJKu...eature=related

Metallica - Enter Sandman

Re: FIRST Music
 

Thanks guys!!!... Keep up the good work, this is helping me out a lot!!!

Re: FIRST Music
 

I tend to zonk out on a mix of 70s progressive rock (Yes, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Genesis, King Crimson), mashups (Mashup Manifesto by Isosine is the current fav), Winter Wrap Up, The Big Bang Theory Theme Song, and the Flaming Lips for the entirety of my teams meetings.

Re: FIRST Music
 

The senior members of my team have taken a liking to Levels by Avicii this year.
As far as general "bands" go, Pendulum, The Glitch Mob, Blackmill, and Skrillex are good, though we like to mix in some alternative and jazz music occasionally.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Civilization by Justice & Fly Like an Eagle from Seal/Steve Miller Band.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Just today our team was discussing this to some degree...

we seem to all like party with pinkie...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sryqa...ure=plpp_video


As well as:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6xRSafBV8o

Those are the only 2 I know by name, we also all agreed on some smooth jazz and classical.
along with alot of the other songs/artists mentioned here. (IFD FTW!)

Unfortunately, not all of the team has the same appreciation for Winter Warp Up that I do... although, sometimes those who disapprove are outnumbered... :P

Re: FIRST Music
 

My team mostly prefers rock/alternative music but they seem to have taken a liking to Deadmau5's (or is it Deadmau5'?) - Ghosts N Stuff though

Re: FIRST Music
 

personally i like the Orgy cover of Blue Monday by New Order...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAt9QTmVc7Q

and then you can't go wrong with Intergalactic by the Beastie Boys... which has a special place in my heart from our rookie year at the Portland regional...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qORYO0atB6g&ob=av2e

and a number of Muse songs are good too. I like Hysteria in particular

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt_uAiBU0Mk

Re: FIRST Music
 

You've probably already checked this out, but Skrillex did a pretty good remix of Levels. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRqZAW1YCG0

For those interested in electronic type music, I'd also recommend Digitalism, and Eric Prydz (The full sets he releases tend to be better than individual songs).

Re: FIRST Music
 

All AWESOME!!!! Is there any new hustles out there?

Re: FIRST Music
 

"We are the Champions" - Queen, you know....:rolleyes:

Re: FIRST Music
 

I'm a fan of any song that starts off loud and upbeat. Those always seem to get me pumped for whatever I'm about to do. (Calc tests not included.)

Some examples of what I mean, generally rock:

Journey - Separate Ways

Ozzy Osbourne - Crazy Train

Alice in Chains - Man in the Box

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit

And for some reason, I really like Jay-Z and Kanye West - Paris (Don't worry, it's the clean version.)

Re: FIRST Music
 

Yeah, what he said ^^^^^^

Re: FIRST Music
 

Hands Up - Daft Punk

Although Party in the USA was played 7 times in one day at the Hartford CT Regional last year...

Re: FIRST Music
 

Notice that techno and rock/alternative feature heavily here...

And yet GSR has had a steady diet of Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift for the last few years. In fact, they've accomplished a remarkable feet...making a playlist that is almost identical to KISS 108 and yet, somehow, far more passe.

BRING BACK THE TECHNO! GSR in 2003-2004 was excellent... Eiffel 65, Darude, etc.... All the classics.

Re: FIRST Music
 

It seems our team loves anything techno or older rock music and even the occasional pop song.

Personally, I love Bassnectar, Skrillex, and my new favorite song of all time is Rainbow Factory. It's really disturbing.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Appropriate this year might be -
Led Zeppelin - Houses Of The Holy - The Crunge
((ending))
Take it take it
Excuse me
Oh will ya excuse me
I'm just trying to find the bridge
Has anybody seen the bridge?
Please!
(Have you seen the bridge?)
I ain't seen the bridge!
(Where's that confounded bridge?)

It might make it onto knowledgeable DJs' playlists, particularly if we give them clues.

Re: FIRST Music
 

And they should time it so that that part starts around the 30 second mark. :)

Re: FIRST Music
 

Aww man. Rainbow factory is great! Have you seen the excellent PMV somepony did for it?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PjIh...ure=plpp_video

Re: FIRST Music
 

Cool indeed. They might slip some Dave Mathews in there too. Anyone seen the bridge?

Is there a London regional? Isn't London Bridge in Arizona now? Come to think of it, didn't Fergie have a "bridge" song? (Oh Snap version for the tender ears at FRC tournaments)

Re: FIRST Music
 

I think this year a fitting one will be
Basketball by Lil bow wow

Re: FIRST Music
 

Movin' Like Bernie of course
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRBLmogRL4c

Re: FIRST Music
 

Deadmau5 is definitely a good choice. I'm also thinking something a little mellower, like Cake.

Re: FIRST Music
 

You can't go wrong with Ghosts n' Stuff. It's also a favorite on my team.

Re: FIRST Music
 

I'd like to hear more of The Prodigy, Deadmau5, Skrillex, Nero, and Pendulum. Personal favorites of mine, and a few other members of our team.

Re: FIRST Music
 

EVerything was kewl until you mentioned Skillrex...lol ::safety::

Re: FIRST Music
 

This ^

Re: FIRST Music
 

Locomotion by Little Eva... :rolleyes:

Re: FIRST Music
 

Ohhhhh Cake is a great choice... Ima go add that to my robotics playlist...

Re: FIRST Music
 

Cake is a good choice for anything. Well, almost anything.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Eeyup!

I hope they play some of it at the competition this year... although, it might not be upbeat enough for their taste...

Re: FIRST Music
 

Anything can happen :D

Re: FIRST Music
 

Grand Funk Railroad version all the way!

Re: FIRST Music
 

Ponies.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Ponies you say?

Re: FIRST Music
 

Ponies I say. (/brohoof)

Re: FIRST Music
 

Quite.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Re: FIRST Music
 

Let's get this thread back on track.

CAKE and Deadmau5 are good for competitions but, how about some jazz. It IS a basketball game after all.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=rbfOocOjZCU

Re: FIRST Music
 

Space Jam needs to be the next sandstorm until we get sick of it.

Re: FIRST Music
 

In that case, on the topic of music:
I find that this song is pretty nice while studying for finals.
Its kinda jazz / techno mix-ish.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnBrp...ayer_embedded#!

Re: FIRST Music
 

Yeah, it was off track a bit, a lot of the music that bronies make are amazing.

I set up Yelling At Cats with DiscordianBeats for the song Dragon Tears.You'll have to look it up as I'm on my phone and can't find it, but it's on DiscordianBeats's Youtube channel.

Re: FIRST Music
 

I believe this is the song thou speakest of:
http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=.../0/iq_HrCRQUlk


It's pretty good. I'm usually not all that into this ^ style of music, but it's very well made.

Re: FIRST Music
 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfhhWA9GF0M

/product of the 90's.

Re: FIRST Music
 

I dont know if its been mentioned yet, but anything by Approaching Nirvana.

Specifically this or this.

Re: FIRST Music
 

A lot of Nickelback is heard in our lab, along with Skillet, Metallica, My Darkest Days, Nirvana, .38 Special, AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Rammstein, and of course The Rolling Stones.

Re: FIRST Music
 

The Stones, Metallica, Nirvana, and Rammstein I approve of, but Nickelback? We had an intervention with one of our mentors on his liking of Nickelback.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Our team has adopted Piano Man by Billy Joel as our unofficial team anthem, mostly just because people play it way too much :P

Re: FIRST Music
 

Today our team listened to a bunch of
Zelda Music,

THIS:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWTFG...ure=plpp_video

And a bunch of music by Flogging Molly
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjSlNE_F-g0

Re: FIRST Music
 

Every song by Pendulum

Re: FIRST Music
 

Alright, here's a huge list that I always hear:

Cotton Eye Joe - Rednex
I Gotta Feeling - Black Eyed Peas
The Time (Dirty Bit) - Black Eyed Peas
Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO
Whip It - Devo
You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC

And there are also the classic FRC competition mascot dance songs, such as:

YMCA - Village People
Cha Cha Slide - Mr. C
Cupid Shuffle - Cupid
Jump On It (Apache) - The Sugarhill Gang
Electric Slide - The Hit Crew
Crank That (Soulja Boy) - Soulja Boy

I got every one of these on my iPod, because we plan to play FRC music at our scrimmage, rather than boring radio music. And the dance songs are for a dance session, to give the teams some relaxation time.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Ever since I found this thread I've been working on putting all our teams favorite songs in a youtube playlist

Heres what I have so far:
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL47180174F655A10B

Its lacking a few key things (like IFD), but I think it's coming along OK.

Re: FIRST Music
 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zz2yLQdEC74
"RoboBee (Parody of "Firework")"
for sure :D

I also like FRC 449's "I Built a Bot"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hBIB...eature=related

Re: FIRST Music
 

New season. I need new music.

Sorry if I'm not supposed to revive 'old' threads, but hey... I have no idea what I'm doing.

anyways, all the monstercat.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwSkC85TDgY

Re: FIRST Music
 

My team have been listening to The Final Countdown for everything new that we do. It is becoming quite annoying. Though while working it is typically a lot of Imagine Dragons.

Re: FIRST Music
 

I'm actually surprised that no one has mentioned this yet as it is my favorite FIRST song by far.

I do not know the name:( , but the song they use in the FIRST Steps video, with the crazy drumming. That always gets me ready for a regional!

Re: FIRST Music
 

It's definitely one of those high-energy dance songs everybody knows the moves to... but there are so many of them!

Re: FIRST Music
 

No diggity- black street. (I gotta bag it up)

Re: FIRST Music
 

I'd just like to say that you're my hero.

Re: FIRST Music
 

The song that gets me most pumped up for anything FIRST related is easily Hall Of Fame by The Script ft. Will.I.Am

Re: FIRST Music
 

Right before my first match driving, the Imperial March came on. Shortly thereafter, Under Pressure by Queen and David Bowie was played. Definitely some of my favorites to hear at competition.

There's also a song called "The Tempest (The Siren's Song; The Banshee's Cry)"
by The Agonist, which I especially love because of the team name association :cool:

Re: FIRST Music
 

Robot Rock- Daft Punk

Re: FIRST Music
 

Could you link the video?

Re: FIRST Music
 

At Competitions

Bom Bom- Sam & the Womp
Mr. Roboto- Styx

Working

Dropkick Murphys Pandora

Re: FIRST Music
 

If no one has mentioned it yet, The Black Pearl - Dave Darell Radio Edit. But it has to be used/timed perfectly, otherwise it doesn't work.

Re: FIRST Music
 

I'm sure nobody actually knows the name of this song *single tear*, so here's a video. This was probably the most popular song at 2000's hockey games.
Kernkraft 400

Re: FIRST Music
 

Right-o.

Re: FIRST Music
 

Timed perfectly? Whatever do you mean? The only special thing I could find was that the song's intro is in fact, exactly 15 seconds before the song "drops" into the main part. Now if only I could remember why 15 was important...:rolleyes:
