Title: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Nomoreheroes on Wednesday, July 11, 2012, 21:57:19 I'm announcing at a swimming gala at the weekend. For the fastest qualifier final heat we normally play a bit of music and introduce the swimmers over the top of it.
In the past I've used tracks such as Prodigy's Omen. Last time I used Swedish House Mafia's Greyhound. Wanted to use something different this time. Any recommendations? Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Barry Scott on Wednesday, July 11, 2012, 22:19:42 How "different"? These are pretty run of the mill, but have a similar feel.

Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Nomoreheroes on Wednesday, July 11, 2012, 22:27:31 Am not getting it with those....Don't seem sporty enough. The thing I like about Omen is that it almost starts with a quiet bit then kicks in with 'big splash' and then moves into a frantic and powerful tune. I can almost see it as an audio representation of a short sprint....Or is it just me?
Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, July 11, 2012, 22:34:30 I'm really liking this at the moment

I can almost see it as an audio representation of a short sprint....Or is it just me? So what does it need to sound like? What I mean is fast, big, loud, electronic, uplifting, nasty, you know what I mean.

Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Nomoreheroes on Thursday, July 12, 2012, 07:32:04 Am liking the Chemical Brothers song and the Avicii one! Not sure it beats the start of Omen though.
Might use it during warm ups - Although I got a complaint from parents and grandparents when I played something a bit 'wild'. Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Bewster on Thursday, July 12, 2012, 07:54:39 How about the theme to Superstars ? ;D
Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: LucienSanchez on Thursday, July 12, 2012, 09:10:43 Play 'Fucking in the Bushes' and be done with it...
Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Bob's Orange on Thursday, July 12, 2012, 09:24:00 Surely 'Eye of the Tiger' will suffice?
Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Bob's Orange on Thursday, July 12, 2012, 09:24:18 or 'Swim' by Caribou?
Title: Re: Background Music To Introduce Competitors Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, July 12, 2012, 09:25:20 Rocky theme tune.
