Tunes for the Shop

[Tallboy]

Well, after a spree of listening to Charlie Sheen remixes last year, our team has yet to settle on a new favourite song for the shop.

I'd like to get an idea of what other teams are listening to right now, maybe it'll help boost productivity around here. Mozart, anyone?

Currently, we rock anything from Metallica, Soundgarden, Daft Punk, Deadmau5, to Creedence Clearwater Revival.

[flavorPacket]

I thought the Daft Punk Pandora station was officially re-named "FSAE"...

[RobbyObby]

We usually just throw up dubstep in Pandora and let it do its thing. Seems to do the trick. Doesnt hurt that its pumped through some pretty hefty drivers. Plus it has the added benefit of keeping out the unwanted senior design students building projects cause they don't wanna deal with the music.

[Trevor]

Final countdown, Highway to the Dangerzone, disney songs, Bloodhound Gang, Jon Lajoie, and cooking by the book.

Best played after 1 am.

Otherwise dubstep and bad 80s are good choices.

[Chapo]

Rebecca Black friday and Look at my horse; anything that will drive you insane, yet they seem to sound good after listening to them on repeat for hours on end...

[ed_pratt]

How about the music from the keizer wheels website? http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[acedeuce802]

The tunes most often heard in our shop include: Steel Panther, Kidz Bop, etc.. you know, the usual.

[Adambomb]

I recommend Maniac by Michael Sembello or anything from the Scarface soundtrack http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

We created a station in Pandora called Baja radio that was explicitly created to drive them out of the shop. It definitely falls into the category of music that will drive you insane, yet sounds good after listening to them for hours on end.

Baja Radio! (http://broadcaster.pandora.com/t?r=927&c=901946&l=37961&ctl=1BDF234:71929AB8E4D32667FF02A6486093AA90050542 759970026E&)

[scotty young Taylor Race]

Limp Bizkit.... I did all for the Nookie...

[Ben K]

Dub Step ftmfw.

Also--Glitch Mob, Daft Punk (especially the Tron soundtrack).

Ben

[Ben K]

Or go for what Drew P. used to listen to--Abba. Lots and Lots of Abba. Dancing Queen ftw?

Ben

[Kevin Hayward]

Lots of Led Zeppelin, Richard Cheese, and Flight of the Conchords.

Good to see that most have gotten over the 'Horse Pop' addiction http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Blasphemy Pat! You can never get over horse pop.

[scotty young Taylor Race]

Wow..... that is really all I can Brian....that is all that comes to mind......

[Drew Price]

It's a lot of Muse in the R&D shop I work in now.

When I am doing a lot of welding it's gotta be metal - specifically Swedish deathmetal (Amon Amarth is a good station seed).

[Markus]

During design phase we mostly listen to metal, Chronix (Aggression) and the national Radio Rock seem to work.

During build phase we usually tune to "Groove FM" that plays 80s hits especially in the night time. Nothing beats metal work and 80s music together! http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif
National hit (Finnish melancholic sort-of-tango music) and national talk radio also get some airtime.

We also play somewhat a lot of Eläkeläiset - something the germans seem to like. http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[AxelRipper]

Depending on the night and who is working in the garage it will usually be alternative rock, hair metal, 80s pop, modern pop, dubstep, country, or some combination of all of the above and then some. My Cake station on Pandora hasn't actually played Cake since 2010.

Also, it is amusing when you have a radio out with one of our member's iPods attached to it while at another SAE competition. Apparently the Clean Snowmobile guys don't regularly kick their Fridays off with Richard Cheese's awe-inspiring rendition of Rebecca Black's 'Friday'.

[Dunk Mckay]

When we had a DAB radio we listened to the aptly named Amazing Radio, that was well over a year ago now. Last summer it was mainly whatever we could get tuned into on some cheap radios that, in turn, all died from dust inhalation. Unfortunately that meant a lot of pop music, with the same 5 songs repeated over and over. There's only so many times you can listen to "I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is what I need..." Before you start screaming about how much you wish you could give them a blinking million dollars just so long as they promised never to play that song again. I think we all went a little mad because of that song.

Clicked on link. First song that came up : Dancing Queen by ABBA. Great Success!!

[Mbirt]

This playlist should be all you need for extreme productivity and to keep the ladies around in the shop: http://www.youtube.com/playlis...t=PL69079BC480BA36B4 (http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL69079BC480BA36B4)

[Bemo]

I'll never get why all non-Germans don't get that you should listen to David Hasselhoff as often as possible http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[MileyCyrus]

Only one real choice.

Miley Cyrus, obviously.

Though My Little Pony mixes are a refreshing change. http://youtu.be/4oZM4Z7W0_M

I'm just going to leave this here:

[Claude Rouelle]

Kevin,

Didn't you forget Barry White?

http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Claude

[Kevin Hayward]

Claude,

I thought working at OptimumG I would learn the ways of romantic people with help from my French speaking colleagues. An appreciation of Barry White would have helped.

Instead I learnt how to curse a bit in French and that the English really like Roast Beef. My wife was not impressed!

You are a bad influence on young engineers http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Kev

[Drew Price]

Can we hear a yoke now?

[Vandal Hybrid]

The only station for us is Danger Zone!!!!

[Wos]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucmsunDs3jE

[Drew Price]

I put the 'Baja' (or is it 'Anti-Baja'??) station on.... and my wife knew all the lyrics to the first 6 songs in a row....


Good stuff in there.

[AxelRipper]

Everyone needs more Nickelback in their garage. Thanks Canada!

[Claude Rouelle]

I've been up and down and over and out*

But I know one thing:

Each time I find myself flat on my face,*

I pick myself up and get back in the race.

Frank Sinatra. That’ s life

[MCoach]

This might be a great one for you guys after all that hearing damage from years in the shop:

[M. Nader]

Haven't tried this one out yet, but i bet this would be the one to look for
summer time (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWaJ0s0-E1o)

[MCoach]

We also tend to just throw on season 1 and 2 of My Little Pony.

The fan made episodes are great as well:

This tune has been playing over and over for the past one week or so in our shop... something about it is so addictive.

Yep, ABBA is a Baja Radio staple! Since then I've also come up with another "secret weapon." It's a montage of montages.

[Owen Thomas]

Endless FEA?
Exhaust routing?
Assembling the master CAD?
Welding?

Three words my friends. Epic Sax Guy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxopViU98Xo).

Only listened to 60% of that particular video, but I have a feeling the last 4 hours are just as good.

[Paul Achard]

These songs have been on repeat for a few weeks:

This is what I have to say to that.

This one is my personal favorite, along with the Fresh Prince one.

Can't remember where I found it (it's not on youtube), there's a 50 Cent one that matches up perfect.

[Simactive]

WE got a ghetto blaster in our shop along with soon a record player. We put anything on mostly radio since the CD player is broken but then again I try to chill out when working.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8iKcdh5Ims&list=RDKuVcuTYWPHE

or just throw on a million snowboarding videos and F1 stuff.

[AxelRipper]

New one...

[Nicholas Kuhajda]

Why not start a playlist on spotify that every formula team can add music to? I have created a spotify playlist labeled "Formula SAE 2014" and if you can find it (URL: http://open.spotify.com/user/1251124...yqXjvbRJo45wwE) you can add to it your team's favorite shop music, and maybe this can turn into some sort of cool potpourri of FSAE/FS music from around the world. Music on this thread can be added to the playlist for easier listening

A collaborative playlist means everyone can add and delete songs. I do not want to moderate the playlist, so I ask all who participate to not abuse the playlist, but all music is welcome. Check to make sure what you want to add is not already in the playlist, and DO NOT go around deleting songs because they do not fit your taste.

I hope this is a fun experience for everyone, at the end of the season I'll remove the ability to edit and open a new playlist for the 2015 season.

Cheers,
