Dear guys and gals,

I've done some of the preliminaries for "The Big One" video that me and a few others will be making. One question though - I need some suggestions for soundtrack.

Answers on a postcard, the winner will be drawn (and quatered) at random.

Cheers,

Rich

 

Video, no one said nething about a video

 

Hang on let me do my hair, ok ready

 

How about Police sirens? The theme tune to The Bill? :-)

Or some cheesy stock-music that you used to get on programmes for schools.

Something soft-rock introduced by Tommy Vance? "The Big One, Rock Classics. Twenty tyre screeching monsters to get your motor running. Not available in shops." etc. Brian May must appear on there, as must Deep Purple's "Smoke on the water", "Layla" by Eric Clapton, "Money for Nothin" by Dire Band, and maybe even "Whole lotta love" by the Zep.

Or given that 99% of us are 30+ IT geeks, perhaps something by Radiohead would suffice?

No, wait, wait. A bit of drum 'n' bass for the Max Power's amongst us :-)

 

How about starting with Republica and Ready to Go?

 

Bless

U learning Chris ??

 

Chris - ur just copying Gary Handa's

 

Got plenty resources - 70GB of MP3 on a dedicated machine at work

Suggestions from work / friends so far include:

Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze
The Offspring - Staring at the sun

Mikey & Ame

 

Rich, yes mate but it's spot on.

Best to chop up a few tracks unless it's going to be an hour long.

I best have a shave and brush me teeth if there's a video camera about

 

Great ideas guys - may just be using one of them

For fun - I may do a mix to one of the corporate anthems on http://www.zdnet.co.uk/specials/2002/it-anthems/ - this has to be seen (and heard) to be believed!!

 

Bachman Turner Overdrive?

"LET'S ROCK!"

 

Fun Lovin' Criminals - SCOOBY snacks

Ok...I'll leave now...

 

For the start... how about the F1 theme tune they used to use in the good old days on BBC F1 coverage? You know... Dummmmm.... dum dum dummmmm dum dum dum dum dummm dummmmmmmm.... etc.

Also, how about 'Yello - The Race'?

Meat Loaf - "All Revved Up and No Place To Go" or "Paradise by the Dashboard Light"?
