Your Build Season Soundtrack
 

Team 1757 stays awake during some of the long days by blasting our mp3 players through a pair of old and junked computer speakers. Does anyone else do the same? By now we have come to a general concensus of what constitutes good build-season music - I want to know what your favorite artists or tracks are to play in the lab. Show off your indy cred!

This year, we managed not to blow out the speakers too often :rolleyes:

but we listened to a lot of:

-Daft Punk
-Strokes
-Gym Class Heroes
-Incubus
-Red Hot Chilli Peppers

we listened to a lot of different types of music, and had a lot of battles on who's Ipod to plug in, but those are the bands I rememeber we played A LOT of.

We mostly listened to Metallica, Pantera, Trivium, Dragonforce. The mentors weren't too pleased with that. Also thrown in were Black Sabbath, Styx, Journey, Tom Petty, and Aerosmith.

We almost always had music going in the animation room. Mostly we played Muse.

Anyone play techno/Eurobeat?

Re: Your Build Season Soundtrack
 

Um... everyone gets annoyed when I play music. So that's why I do it. However, only on Tuesday nights... that's the only night I was able to meet.

With that said... I played:

Cradle of Filth
Dragonforce
Demon Hunter
Bullet for my Valentine
I Killed the Prom Queen
HIM

Among many others... it's good that the kids mostly like that music.

I usually just put my iPod into shuffle mode, and if someone didn't like a song that came up, they would skip it. But these artists/bands were the ones that everyone would usually listen and agree to were mostly rock, including:

Everclear
Aerosmith
Switchfoot
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Fort Minor
Linkin Park
Smash Mouth
Third Eye Blind
Matchbox Twenty
Lostprophets
Reel Big Fish
Streetlight Manifesto
Blue Man Group
Blind Melon
ACDC
Fuel
Moby
Yellowcard
Jet
Cake
Sublime
Nine Inch Nails
The Chemical Brothers
The Postal Service
Death Cab For Cutie
Deep Blue Something
The Fray
Incubus
Lifehouse
Hoobastank
Weezer
Franz Ferdinand
Dropkick Murpheys
Muse
Metallica
Evanescence
Green Day
My Chemical Romance (though only their song Helena)
Closure
Goldfinger
The Clash
The Ramones
Eagle Eye Cherry

Wow, that turned out a little longer than I thought... :)

I like how you put the "but only that one song!" caveat on your MCR mention - I think it's a good sign for the music world that you felt you had to.

edit: I can't help ascribing my music taste (which I consider to be flawless because it's my music taste - a vicious cycle) to the rest of the world. Please don't get too mad that I really dislike MCR...

Mad props to artdutra04 for kickin' it to Reel Big Fish and Streetlight Manifesto (two of my favorite bands in the ska scene). Looks like you'd be well-liked on team 1757.

Push me
And then just touch me
Till I can get my
Sat-is-faction


And, of course, the ever-popular Thunderstruck (AC/DC), and some of my own techno (from the Bonkers series, if anyone knows about it)

Re: Your Build Season Soundtrack
 

Benny Benassi ftw!!! w00t!

Re: Your Build Season Soundtrack
 

All I have to say for our team is Go Oldies! and Go well known Classics!

Re: Your Build Season Soundtrack
 

You shouldn't go a build season without some Benassi, Van Buuren, and Tiesto.

Re: Your Build Season Soundtrack
 

we always have the song "snow" by the red hot chili peppers playing when we are building. its also our accomplishment song when we finish somthing like electrical we play the song.

Re: Your Build Season Soundtrack

Re: Your Build Season Soundtrack
