Paperclip Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Let's have a bit of fun. Post up what you think is the best soundtrack/song used in a trials video in the comments. The lead up to Christmas I'll post up a poll of the most popular ones and let that run up to Christmas day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Morris Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Could spend all day thinking about this and still not come up with an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 All three of the below are complete cliche, but in my mind all three videos are pretty iconic for their 'genres' of trials. When I hear any of the songs i immediately think of the video regardless of where I am. If i had to choose one then Toxicity...such a good video / song choice. Old school: Toxicity by System of a down from "Toxicity - Trials kings" - https://youtu.be/42Pvyrcdp8s TGS street: Lying from You by Linkin Park from 'Gilles & Giacomo coustellier in nottingham" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0EV2FZPugc Street trials: The funeral by Band of horses from 'Inspired Bicycles - Danny MacAskill April 2009' - https://youtu.be/Z19zFlPah-o 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see Leeds in there hah, who are the riders? CLS Zoo! Video 28 (4 words) and Danny Mac (the funeral) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeperson45 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 If I have to pick one it would be The Distance by Cake from what I think was Danny Mac's first video? Back when videos could go viral from being called Mountain Bike Trickster and automatically generated thumbnails. I can't not list the honourable mentions that I still listen to regularly when I ride... The TGS rock music thing never really did it for me, I'm pretty darn mellow. Jon Byrne - Cigarette Song (Rowan John's CS video, and now I've finally realised CS most likely stands for Cigarette Song...) Slackstring - Sunday Jen (Ben Travis - Sunday) The Album Leaf - Always For You (Mike Bentham - Monday) Hermitude ft. Steve Clisby (Lewis Greenhalgh video I can't find anymore) Little Dragon - Twice (Joel Bennett - Twice) The Avalanches - Frontier Psychiatrist (East Coast Trials 2 - Dave Dennis 2003) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 For whatever reason Phil Williams gorillaz fivefour video sticks with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davetrials Posted December 15, 2020 Report Share Posted December 15, 2020 Hooberstank, not a clue what song.. old school Si sagar video, always stuck in my head. Finch 3 simple words, Danny smith in Morecambe, filmed on a potato. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topsy Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 I don't actually remember many songs from videos. Band of Horses has been mentioned already so I'll go with what introduced me to riding with ska: Shootin' Goon - MTV / Do the Goon intro from Matt Berridge's Do the Goon Again vid. Also, from @aener 's Jezebel vid, Iron & Wine - Jezebel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aener Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 Or Or Or (Or... Could probably do this all day. Impossible to choose really.) None of them are my favourite music, but in terms of working with the video... Yeah. They're the ones that first come to mind, anyway.

Ali C Posted December 19, 2020 Report Share Posted December 19, 2020 I was also going to mention Rowan’s video and music combos, they were class but seeing as that’s been covered, I’m going to mention Andy Ts Vincent Hermance in Colorado (2?) video with Arcade Fire and possibly Modest Mouse? I remember those being watched on repeat, the riding was the best I’d seen and the music helps the hype... so good! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted December 19, 2020 Report Share Posted December 19, 2020 I also really liked the beach section from crux, the beat and the riding just fitted perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbertlemon102 Posted December 19, 2020 Report Share Posted December 19, 2020 for some reason, this for me. bersha always seems to be on it with music choices. that, or really liked this. im a bit weird with music though. probably not popular choices.
