I can't help thinking that I'm one of the 'bad ass rock music' guys that Kaiser is talking about.
My 7 year-old daughter is my co-pilot & most of the time the audio is just lame. In between the unintelligible chirping of the FRS you've got random conversation & laughter punctuated by various oohs, ahhs & whoas. Aside from the occasional "Oh God we're gonna die!" moment, there just isn't anything interesting to hear.
Of course anything involving "Hey y'all, watch this!" or "Here, hold my beer." would be left as is.
I'll agree that most wheeling deserves somewhat mellow music. My first video (Edward's Park) was basically dirt road & a minor hill climb so I chose Anthrax' 'Black Lodge' for the driving part & Johnny Cash's cover of 'Rusty Cage' for the slower hill climb. Seemed appropriate at the time.
This latest video (Hassayampa) was mostly high-speed wash running so I chose 'angry' music for the soundtrack. Incidentally, the same type of music I was listening to that day. Coming down from the mine the focus got knocked out of whack or you would've heard me cranking 'Back in Black' which happened to be on the radio at the time.
I was going to go for a 'techno' vibe (Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, Dirty Vegas), but I didn’t have enough of the right tracks to fill the video.
I guess I won't be using Drownig Pool's 'Bodies' any time soon.
