E30 Zone

right ok, just thought i would see what e30 drivers are listening to while driveing. i was comeing back from work this morning, 5th gear, mpg gauge was on 50, 45mph the sun was just riseing, window open and im listening to dire straits ''sultans of swing'' through the clarion and original pioneer speakers. it dosent get any better than that. what do you listen to?

I have an ipod with ove 24,000 songs from 50cent to Justin Timberlake so i have lots of choice

i also have an ipod plugged in with about 1000 songs everything from hardcore to madonna this morning was cream ibiza classics

I am running a mp3 JVC front loader and original speakers, currently listening to the greatest hits of Limp Bizkit....."roling ,rolling , rolling, rolling"

im listening to dire straits ''sultans of swing'' through the clarion and original pioneer speakers

you're just having an 80's timewarp moment aren't you?

Must admit I've got a mp3 keny and i listen to all sorts from AeroSmith onwards, At the moment im playing the scarface soundtrack

esp when the "sultans play creole"

dire straits=top band!

I often get comments that i'm psychotic with regards to music.

My cd's generally chop and change from nina simone->pantera->the corries->The haunted etc

its a bit mad tbh but it suits me!

The corries I thought it was just me that that was an old man in disguise! Im a big fan! Makes the hairs stand up up the back of yer neck.

10 CD MP3 changer so whatever it fancies!

Also stick a CD in the head unit when I wanna decide - currently in the car are some Bowie (Ziggy of course & others!), Pink Floyd, Pearl Jam, Lou Reed, Stone Roses, Chilis...

lol, you gotta love dire straits, money for nothing, what a track. i love the old stuff, its really suited to the e30. the clarion is also a mp3/wma player but it takes a little too long for my likeing between tracks.

agreed!

my tastes are so varied

could be anything from floyd to 50cent to oldskool 80s/90s jungle

just keep it oldskool and ya wont go far wrong

its got to be funky house or artists like papoose/mobb deep/biggie/or dipset dats how we do in the south

i love the busta rhymes track touch it(video version) papoose does a great pice in it, i have a very weird taste in music, everything from elo to busta from busta to mj.

On my way to work I'm listening to proper old school stuff, the original of this (dont know who sung it b4 britney its mark's cd)

I saw him dancin there by the record machine
I knew he must have been about 17
The beat was going strong
Playin my favorite song
I could tell it wouldn't be long till he was with
Me (yeah me)
I could tell it wouldn't be long till he was with
Me (yeah with me)
(sing it)
I love rock and roll, so put another dime in the
Juke box baby
I love rock and roll so come and take the time and
Dance with me
Ow!

and a few songs from the commitments, blondie and all sorts of random stuff.

I have only 1 cd in the car and I am fed up of it as its a compilation I made about 3 years ago of the darkness, POD, OPM, Papa roach and other random skater bands.

On the way back after fetching my son its "if you're happy and you know it", "twinkle twinkle little star" and allsorts of great tunes

Got ice but i dont use it, just roll down the window and listen to a silky 6 pot!

Do you like the Naked Music stuff too?

I've been listening to a lot of electro/techno (esp. Legowelt) in the e30 recently
Also ripped all the radio stations out of GTA Vice City to mp3, good for a laugh getting into the 80's vibe, cruising in a white car
