There’s a lot of great classical & orchestral pieces that would be awesome at a FIRST event:
-Ride of the Valkyries
-William Tell Overture
-1812 Overture
-Sabre Dance

And then there’s all the great soundtracks:

-Duel of the Fates (Star Wars ep. I)
-Wheel of Fortune (Pirates of the Caribean)
-Requiem for a Tower
-(I'll think of more)

Techno (preferably trance and drum-and-bass) is always a winner. So is classic rock and hair-metal.

But this is an Israeli Off-season event, so I’d say play what’s popular over there.
Oh, YEAH!!! I would LOVE that. Excellent choices. :D I'd probably add some quality tracks from Lord of the Rings in there too. And some Indiana Jones . . .

lol, Buckeye played that last year. Very fitting, though some of us weren't "white" we all felt the same way. Generally, I liked the selection of the music we had. I don't pay it that much attention, but I'm sure we'd all miss it if we didn't have it. Personally, the only requirement is fast-paced songs, [nearly] any genre, after the 90's-era.

FF7 and FF7 AC soundtracks would be VERY nice!

Especially the rock songs like Tatakau Mono Tachi and Battle in the Forgotten City.

I concur wholeheartedly, but I doubt anyone else shares our musical tastes.
I wouldn't mind Battle of Yavin by John Williams, or Tatakau Monotachi from FFVII or FFVII:AC.

What, no showtunes? :P


I'd think the overture to Phantom of the Opera would be quite cool - FIRST event music needs more pipe organs....

I don't mind any kind of music however I would like it if they would turn it down a little-- at the Arizona regional we were calling desperately for a tether--our pit crew mis heard because of the music volume and brought a hammer.

As a human player I wore ear plugs. It shouldn't be that way.

I can't get enough of Welcome to the Jungle, Thunderstruck, and Back in Black. Rock all the way.

I remember that Toronto had a significantly better song list than most regionals I've been to last year. Whoever picked that one out... good job.

If I remember correctly at the West Michigan Regional last year we heard the FF7 Battle Theme and the FF7 Boss Battle Theme. That brought back some memories ^_^

Sirius, The Middle, White and Nerdy, and the Final Touchdown should be played at all regionals for sure.

Interactive songs that are commonly played that people like would be stuff like cotton eyed joe (though it is a bad song when you have a pneumatics leak in your robot and you're waiting for it to be over)

Ahem, that's the Final COUNTDOWN, not the final Touchdown. And of course, don't forget Sandstorm.

Sandstorm by Darude has always been the one song I associate with FIRST.

Most people probably don't know the name since it has no lyrics.

Techno is the only way to go. Think about it. What else would you play with a bunch of robots running around a track? and for all those who said classical you'all are crazy. I don't go to competition to sleep

Brutal Death Undeground Grindcore metal would also go well with robotics :P
