SOAPing Music
Sep 15, 2006 by Jard39

i was just wondering is there a soaping music? because i know skateboarders and rollerbladers have a certain type of music they listen to. so what would that be for SOAPers?

SONIC MUSIC!!! lol jokin. Basically it's kinda the same as skateborders and rollerbladers. Any type of good rock. and can be slow because theres a lot of walking around in soaping.

Traditionally Soap vid's have been comprised of Rock and Dance music, with the very rare occourances of Rap every now and then.

Really you can use any song/genre you want. When you're editing the video and you get the feeling that a song compliments it very well or you're able to sync up grinds and beats, then you're good.

Well, I haven't made a vid yet, but I have my own style when it comes to listening to music while soaping some where..

Usually is rock and house, along with some J-rock/J-pop. =D

Okay, no offense to those who have used Sonic the Hedgehog themes in their videos, but
"Escape from the City" isn't really a good selection.

And Crush 40 certainly makes it sound cheesy, as the same goes for most of their other tunes. Johnny's "ooooh"s and "yeeeah"s often sound fit for a commercial about Transformers or Hot Wheels, etc.

Some of you are probably pissed off at me for saying this, because you used it.
Consider this one of the boldest things I will ever say.

A good song if it's really intense vid, could be the music in Sonic Adventure 2 on the Jungle level as Sonic, it's heavy metal with a fast pace. THe mission was a time mission so the music was designed to get your adrenaline pumping.

There is no "SOAPING" music......Whatever you listen to is your Soaping music......wow

what an odd question.
its whatever you enjoy listening to!

If its for a video, then i guess you would have to be more selective, choose something that fits the pace/theme of the vid.
if its fast grinds and all out madness. Then maybe some punk, heavy rock, dance etc.
If its a little slower-paced and technical, maybe some hip-hop, electronic, trip-hop, rap.
but seriously, there really isnt any such thing as 'skater music/golf music/soccer music/boxing music/soaping music'.
You listen to music for the enjoyment of it and if theres some tracks that really get you in the mood to bust-out some mad tricks. then rock-on.
but dont start Labeling it as 'soapers music' as everyone has different tastes.
create your own style, enjoy the music you like and have fun with it.

true that, although i would have to say, good luck fitting country music to soaping ;)

Sep 21, 2006Wesker

I think Sloppy Seconds had a song that was countryish.

I don't know Trev ... a little Cross-Canadian Ragweed or the new one by the Wreckers gets a TX boy going (the chicks in the Wreckers are hot!). Add some more cross-country, finish it off with some Tool, followed by a little Led Zeppelin, and an AC/DC "Back in Black" or a Bob Marley finale and you have totally mixed-up mix.

I agree with Kaz ska is like perfect for soaping, it like punk, but then with the energeticness to it, but also metal, it gets you in a hardcore, "i can do anything" mood

Sep 22, 2006Kaz

Sep 22, 2006dunk
