:thumbsup:

To be honest wasn't too hot on the Kavinsky one personally but I like looking at new things, checking the list out.

Skeptical about a few myself, but I'm just old school interesting list though.

I'd imagine would appeal to newer minds perhaps.

Not bad, but some of it kinda things I'll need to delve in more to even try to enjoy.

This still one of my oldest favorites and commercials have even lessened it.

Not driving music I guess.

I still listen to it at least once a weekend cranked up.

*edit* won't delete this but I guess it really wasn't relevant sorry.

The Crystal Method - Drive.

Technically for workouts but it's named appropriately and I crossed the country listening to it on my Ninja. ;)

Actually, Born Too Slow and Legion of Boom are better driving tunes from that group but neither are in that album.

I actually like to listen to ambient music when I drive, like Surface to Air, One too Many Mornings, and Star Guitar from The Chemical Brothers.

Speaking of appropriately named albums, how about the soundtrack to "Drive?" It has an '80s vibe despite being very modern, so it's the best of both worlds. Try College - Real Hero for a taste.

just put on some radio channel that does mostly music.

Or don't listen to your sister, younger people can appreciate old music as well.

Blast them with Telarc's horrific 'new' 1812 overture. You want bass? I give you concussion!

Fair enough; I probably should not have put that song first, but I have a massive hard-on for Drive, so I couldn't help myself.

Not a blues fan at all, but I love Danse Macabre; that was awesome.

It's called Sirius Radio....pick the station for your mood. BPM is really good a lot of the time.
