What music does everyone listen to when they’re training? I mean at home really, but if you listen to some in class, tell us what it is. Obviously if you’re doing Chi Kung you won’t have music on, but for working out on the bag, lifting etc. I listen to hip hop (Lyricist Lounge, Mos Def, lil bit of Dre,) punk rock (West coast NoFX, Pennywise etc, East Coast Civ, Sick Of It All etc), Metal (Vision Of Disorder, Pantera, Deftones, Rage Against The Machine, Snot etc.) dance (Chemical Brothers etc.) and Drum and Bass. Anything that gets you in the mood. What about you lot? Tell me what gets your juices flowing :eek: 😕😃 ---

HHmm nice topic General stalwarts that I’ll always hold close to my heart are: The Fall (Naturally the only band on the planet worth listening to!), Will Oldham/Palace/Palace Brothers/Bonnie Prince Billy/The Anomoanon etc. Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Autechre, Aphex Twin, A.T.R., Captain Beefheart, Beck (and only his good stuff i.e. first 3 records), Joy Division, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Pepe Kale, Sonic Youth That’ll do Im sure. Plus some newish bands at the moment: Lift To Experience, Aspects, and obviously (zzzz) The Strokes & The White Stripes. ---

When lifting weights I listen to Spineshank. Why does no one know who that is? If you want more hardcore songs to lift to, download Synthetic, Malnutrition, and New Disease by Spineshank. I used to listen to In Extremo on my way to the gym, before I discovered working out with a walkman. btw, mad props to anyone who knows who In Extremo is. But it doesn’t count if you run a web search on them right now and then say you are familiar with them 😛 Oh yeah, and screw anyone who says bagpipes and metal don’t mix 😛 😛 😛 btw if anyone wants to hear some hardcore bagpipes and metal, download the song “Ai Vis Lo Lop” (if anyone can tell me what language this song is I’ll be one happy guy. My guess is old french but I have no idea really) “Vollmond” is another good one, but the pipes don’t come in until the solo. Also, another very good song is “Der Galgen.” Der Galgen is German btw, it means, um, those things that you hang people by, not the noose, but the structure that the noose is tied to. Vollmond means full moon. This band sings in various European languages, such as German, old German, and old Sweedish. Sorry QeySuS, no Icelandic, though ☹ Seriously, if someone dl’s these songs let me know what you think.

Dude… I know who Spineshank are. Not to cause offence, but they’re not really my bag. That sort of music is, but Spineshank sort of struck me as unoriginal. But then I’ve only heard their first album, and I thought it sounded like Fear Factory meets Deftones. And talking of Bagpipes, the first ones I ever heard mixed with metal were on Korn’s first album. Anyway… ---

i think when working out it’s ok, but when “meditating” or doing any kung fu you want silence. Also, on an unrelated note, my old maths teacher said that if you learn/do something when there is music playing, say, a certain song, it’s harder to recall how to do it if there is no music or that song isn’t playing. His words not mine but it doesn’t sound ridiculous? That said, i ALWAYS have music playing, i think i am scared of silence lol ================================= What we really need is chicks with a whole new kinda orifice - Fish Sharky, I should expect this level of immaturity from you after seeing your post titled “Hm.” regarding the woman that lives next door to you. I think everyone who unfortuneatly read that post is a bit more ignorant now for doing so. - Spectre All i wanted was some RICE CAKES! Now? WE MUST BATTLE. ---

Celtic Rock - its kinda invigorating, regardless of the bagpipes, not to mention that it is more or less punck rock anyways, Modern Jewish Music - well i am jewish, need I say more?

those bands would be: Celtic: Seven Nations, Gaelic Storm, a mix or two. Jewish: no need to mention, no one’s heard of these guys anyway. Zvika “He’s not dead, 'es resting! Well if 'e’s resting, I’ll wake him up! 'Ello Mr. Polly Parrot…” -Monty Python, Dead Parrot Sketch ---

I can’t really put on music when I’m training. I have just enough music training that when music is playing, part of my brain tends to break it down into its parts and how they relate, and this tends to make it difficult to focus on training. And what would you do with a brain if you had one? -Dorothy to the Scarecrow ---

While doing qi gong: Anything by Vangelis tends to be good. The Tao of Healing Some Yoga musics Massage Therapy music tends to be nice… As Ish says, its really background music, and my focus is not on the music, but it is nice to set the mood, and if you have a cd that runs an hour and a half, when the music stops playing, its often a sign that you can wrap up your qi gong etc if you are on a time-limit of some sort. - Nexus ---
