teejay Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 After working all summer last year doing our network upgrade, I've carried over some holiday and am taking a month off over summer:cool: Sooo, off touring with the Mrs to France and wherever takes our fancy next week for 4 weeks, have an empty 32Gb SD card which fits into the car stereo and need to fill it with music. Not going to say what music I like, want to broaden the horizons and find our Sounds of the Summer 2011, so over to you lot:rockon:
Oaktech Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 you're going to be doing a lot of driving, so add some The Who and Deep Purple to that... 1

jinnantonnixx Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 And how could I forget "Lines in the Suit" by Spoon? It is both summery and drivingy, so it's a winner. 1
teejay Posted July 19, 2011 Author Posted July 19, 2011 Thanks all, as well as individual tracks, are there any albums to be recommended? I've got a serious amount of driving to do ;-)

creese Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 LPs Marvin Gaye - What's going on Stevie Wonder - Songs in the key of life & Conversations peace & really way out Journey through the secret life of plants 1
Domino Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 BOOOOOM! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z293tG4-488 ..I could do this all day... 1
Hightower Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 You need a bit of daft punk - that is seriously good sunny driving music. Also, any Muse album, any Foo Fighters album, any Biffy Clyro album, and any Queens of the Stone Age album should be a good start. 1
Disaster Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Rancid - Life Wont Wait, lots of reggae/ska influenced punk 1
Domino Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Rancid - Life Wont Wait, lots of reggae/ska influenced punk "..and out come the wolves" surely? 1
RabbieBurns Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 this always reminds me of summer for some reason ci9y8_0ziSk 1
sonofsanta Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 You'll be wanting some easy acoustic in there as well then. Obvious example is Jack Johnson and his general Hawaiiness, but I'd also fervently recommend Iron & Wine -The Creek Drank The Cradle is as fine a place as any to start. You can probably expand out from there on your own as I can't for the life of me think what else I need to recommend without my MP3s handy to check, I'm afraid! 1
Pyroman Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 No Doubt - Tragic kingdom Foo fighters - Wasting light or Greatest hits Thin lizzy - Greatest hits or live and dangerous Pixies - Greatest hits Hugh Laurie - Let them talk 1
RabbieBurns Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 this always reminds me of summer for some reason ci9y8_0ziSk how do you embed bl00dy youtube?
computer_expert Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 how do you embed bl00dy youtube? In the reply box where you have the world icon and the envelope next to it, just click the button at the end (the one that looks like a film) to embed a video. 1
computer_expert Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Dance; Gui Boratto's essential mix from around 2009. Paul Oakenfold's essential mixes from around 1999 are good as well 1
joe90bass Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Tower of Power! I love this track so much by the time I get to work my ears are normally bleeding as I can't listen to it quietly...... 1
Disaster Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 "..and out come the wolves" surely? Of course, one of the best albums ever, from anyone, ever!
happymeal Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Any Foo Fighters album Any Greenday album Daft Punk - any of them Stereophonics - Language, Sex, Violence, Other Blink 182 - Enema Of The State The Killers - Hot Fuss / Sam's Town Less Than Jake - Anthem / Hello Rockview Manic Street Preachers - Forever Delayed Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Californication / Stadium Arcadium Incubus - Morning View (And any album AFTER that...) 1
