i have about 6 playlists to cater for mood and mode. apologies for any vagueness, i'm trying to do it from memory
1 (AKA standard wipeout playlist).
All my favourites from the wipeout series
similar tunes on game 3.0 and the kitsune maison compilations
pendulum - Hold your colour (album) and a couple from in silico
flashback by Cyantific & logistics
neon neon - i lust you
gotta have some kraftwerk in there
2 (similar genre but more electro-worthy).
crystal castles - Air war, crimewave, untrust us.
justice - Phantom Pt II (boys noize unreleased turbine mix), waters of nazareth, never be alone
does it offend you, yeah? - weird science, epic last song, we are rockstars, attack of the 60ft lesbian octopus, battle royale, doomed now
late of the pier - broken, space and the woods (neon plastix remix), bathroom gurgle, the bears are coming, heartbeat, focker (rolmops remix), random firl, white snake
neon plastix - on fire, electricity, gentleman's gold, 18-30's, neon invasion, prick tease, what's so funny, dream

3. zone playlist
assortment of ASOT's 1-350 split into 20 min sections (even though i never last that long)
4. generic pseudo-indie playlist that i can sing along to
libertines
babyshambles
the clash
the smiths
radiohead

5. DnB
pendulum
dj hype

ellis dee
lots of DnB compilations
6. getting high to zone mode
1200 mics
infected mushroom
more compilation stuff (helpful i know)
i'll try and edit it so it's a tad more specific :)
Here is my personal playlist.
for example:
Rennie Pilgrem
Adam Freeland
Daft punk
Crystal Method
Massive Attack
Prodigy
Chemical Brothers
Pendulum
Bukem
Apollo 440
I have to admit that i have many other no electronic songs but only to cheat my friends when we play at home,like:
Donde estara mi carro - Manolo escobar
El baile del pañuelo - Leonardo Dantes
and many more.
kisses to girls,hugs to guys.
LTJ Bukem and Adam Freeland are great producers, can't get enough of Adam Freelands "Circles".
Edit: Uh oh, i mixed Adam freeland to Adam F so can't get enough of Adam F's "Circles" :D
But Adam Freeland is still cool also.
I'll recommend the music of Gez Varley (aka G-Man). I got his album Bayou Paradis cheaply, before Wipeout HD came out, when I learned that he had been in LFO. I tried it with Wipeout and loved it. I picked up Avanti as well and it also works beautifully (although I took out the "Lollipop" track). It's not quite the kind of music I usually listen to, but I think it's great for racing.

I also enjoy using stuff from the Kompakt label, but I don't have as much of that as I'd like.
Good recommendations Feisar, I like the sound of those for racing. The odd mellower track on my playlist is a good thing amid all the thumping breaks and trance anthems! It sounds a bit like some Laurent Garnier tracks I have, and also a bit of Sasha/John Digweed stuff that I race to.
I agree with the general shout for LTJ Bukem, but I think you have to be careful with him. His quality stuff is mesmerizing but, imo, he easily crosses the thin line between this and pretentious new age cheez, often complete with psychobabble lyrics, which tries way too hard to be inspirational and visionary. I think I`ve found all the stuff I like from him, the rest I just find quite depressing.
I found quite a lot of good racing music lately, I`ll post links when I get time. Thanks everyone for ideas, this is a great thread. :)
Don't laugh but I added the Bee Gees "You sould be dancin" to my playlist and it totally rocks....think I might try some more disco music :lol
LMAO : deserved to be in the monthly quotation !
Haha maybe the Steps version will suffice :p
QOTSA, Blur, NIN, The Mad Capsule Markets, Beastie Boys, Wipeout 3/Fusion/Pulse OSTs, Cowboy Bebop OST, Turrican (Amiga) OST :D
oh and some pluggin' for my bro doc - http://www.myspace.com/breakbeatdoc
his tunes are on my PS3 too, keep clicking next track til you get to his DooM E1M1 remix, its proper FRESH! seriously though, he's got a bit of Cold Storage in him, gonna go far. check out the track DnB Sadness, that and some of the others sound like they were made for Wipeout.
well well ever heard about van halen...it will blow your mind when racing
Hey! I just added you as a friend on PSN after some good races with you today! Glad to see you here on WipeoutZone! You should introduce yourself in The Pilots Lounge! Hope to race you again soon!
Oh and some choice tunes from my WipEout HD folder :)

Chemical Brothers - Under The Influence (Mix 2)
London Elektricity - The Great Drum n Bass Swindle
Out of curiousity, anyone have marilyn manson's "beautiful people" on his/hers too?
Don't have it, but i like it.
I listen to trance ... it seems to slow things down for me.
I tried listening to Ministry ... and I could not stay on the track. Being spaced out seems to work better than being angry.
I listen some long mixes of progressive psytrance (psychedelic trance), especially in Zone mode ; it let me stay on the rhythm ascending AND get me zen & cool :) I recommand you !
Some artists in this category I recommand a lot :
• DRURY NEVIL - FREAKS OF THE DARK
• Phatmatix
• Brain Driver (Lume)
• Khopat (Re-Activate <3)
• Rev (Bilateral dysfunction)
• Pirated Machines (pirated mind)
• Psywalker (chemical trance)
• Atomic Pulse
...
I think this type of music corresponds PERFECTLY to wipeout HD !!! you MUST try for an absolutely amazing experience in flow !
• KRAFTWERK is excellent mixed with Wipeout world !
For tournaments and unique race, I'm listening more darktrance and techno industrial music...Then when you beat your AG opponents in a big explosion, you get high on hardcore muzik !
• X-Fusion
• Noisuf-X
• Alien Vampires
• Groupe T
• Angoria
...
But not too much hardcore too, because too disturbing to rest concentrated and cool in bends Oo ! Use with moderation ^^
(Sorry if my english is poor, I'm french ^^)
But definetively electronic music. Experimental...Ambient : why not try ? IDM...Breakcore...Trance, psy...GOA...Industrial :)
Hey guys!
Fresh Wipeout HD convert here, just got the game a few days ago. Now, I haven't played racing games since Wipeout 2097 for the PSX and Motorhead for the PC (both of which can only be found in museums now, I guess :D ), but I remembered how much fun I had with them back then so I decided to give HD a try.
Of course this means I'm probably going to have the worst lap times of all the forum-goers for a long time (RPG-s don't exactly require you to have quick reflexes and fast wiggles on the analog stick...), but that won't stop me from trying to get some silverware (i.e. trophies) now and then. :)
Anyway, before I drift even further off-topic: one of the aforementioned oldie racers, Motorhead, actually has a brilliant soundtrack (and one that goes so well with WipEout that you'd think it was originally made for that game), made by a swedish composer called Olof Gustafsson. If you can get a hold of an original copy of the game, you'll find that any CD ripping utility will recognize the tracks as CD audio (with the exception of track 1, which is of course the game). If not, you might bump into the guy's website via Google and get them there, though I haven't searched for it in like 6 years, so it might not be available anymore.
Another recommended album is Millenium Fever by Apollo 440. Great songs that really match the fast-paced action on screen.
Oh, and one more song that deserves an entry here is Ride the Comet by Ayreon (album 01011001), I just got to Zone 42 while listening to it! Currently I can't imagine getting anywhere near 75, but back when I tried this zone mode I couldn't imagine getting two perfect laps in a row either, so... :)
It may be a stupid question, but it seems to me that you cannot play a custom soundtrack (by selecting an album on the HDD) and include the official WipeOut HD soundtrack at the same time. Am I correct ? or do I missed the option to use include both soundtracks ?
If that so, the only solution would be to get the WOHD musics on the HDD but that would be stupid to have to do this when the soundtrack is already in the game u_u
Heh I'll give that a try, at the moment all I have on my PS3 are the albums Pretty Hate Machine and Broken. I seem to be loving their old sound more, but some of their later songs are awesome too. Sorry for the 4 month delay on the reply :P
I'm liking the Blur and QOTSA attention as well, nice one Stinkleroy and SaturnReturn :D
Got two more I somehow missed...
Dave Tipper (His album Tip Hop is my favourite album of 2008, such a great scratch/hip hop sound)
Does anyone have a sound system with some really PHAT bass potential? If so, please listen to this Mistabishi track with it turned up loud and tell me how long it took for your pants to vibrate down to your ankles, its goddamn sweet this tune.
Also Sch@dows no you can't do that I'm afraid, your only option is indeed the silly time wasting option :P But hey, at least if you put it on your PS3 you can play it in other games. I've always wanted to ask everyone as well, ever notice how the random function doesn't work that well? I've had all my songs put into an 'all' playlist, over 200 songs, and I'm sure I keep hearing the same damn tracks.
I think you`re right about the random playback not being truly random, or even very close to random maybe. I have 284 tracks on my playlist and sometimes I think it is just that our minds are inclined to see patterns where none exist, and that tracks are not really being repeated too much, but then at other times my PS3 seems to have an affinity to one particular Paul van Dyk track so much that I now hate it. Anyway I found that changing the playlist order might cure it. I put a different track as the first on my playlist and haven`t heard that one PVD track since, although I could be imagining that too.
Of course if you have the Pulse soundtrack you can copy that over to your PS3's hard drive (like I have with all the Wipeout games' soundtracks), and that way you'll be able to hear the songs that come as default with Wipeout HD. Basically HD's soundtrack is 1/2 of Pulse's soundtrack (9 out of 16 tracks from Pulse).
I ripped (as maybe many of you) the three first wipeouts of 32 bit. I put Fusion too.
Away from WipEout, i played so much Uplifting Trance and i thought it was not very WipEout style in the first time, but it feels good when i am racing, for example now i have a set from M.I.K.E. from March, of the Clubbin' program of Slam FM. I like when sounds Rafael Frost - Red (Ferry Corsten Remix) and i am in Ubermall.
Another tunes of this style could be
LNQ - You can trade me for something Good
Chicane - Saltwater
Myon & Shane 54 - Not a lot Left
Pitcher - Strike (Kay Cee Remix)
Pound & Harris - Formentera (Definitive Mix)
Some of these i putted in custom soundtrack.
But if you want another style with more wipeout feeling, i played these:
Oscar Mulero @ Zona 3 1999. A set from a Spanish techno dj of a radio program. A set of his best years probably. Techno and Hard Techno.
Sets from Derrick May.
Tesox - Go Ahead London
Emmanuel Top - Stress
Hallucinogen - LSD
Timo Maas pres Mad Dogs - Better Make Room (James Holden Remix)
LSG - Netherworld (Either Original or Oliver Lieb 2004 Remix are good)
Moby - Go (Original or Trentemoller Remix)
Hypetraxx - The Darkside
and of course, the entire album of Future Sound of London - Dead Cities. Really cool.
And the last one: M.I.K.E. vs John '00' Fleming - Icecream
Beach Boys - "I get around" on repeat... over and over again ;)
Nah, but I found that Röyksopp is a perfect match with WO racing :)
I simply listen to wipeout fusion, pure and pulse soundtrack... and some from previous episodes too
which i added some Pendulum, drum n bass fits good.
the titles are :
Propane Nightmares
Hold your colours
Fasten your Seatbelt
Bacteria Remix
Slam
Remember me
etc...
and with some DJ-Tiesto, DJ-Sasha, Chemicals Brothers to enhance my game experience...
i'm happy with the Resume option, cause most of them are 6' long.
However, anything with enough BPM fits...
nice track
but when it comes to audiosurf, i don't really understand why people spend ~10€ on something like this,
and it totally looks like zone mode.
dutch gabba beats! trancy hard style..i find these great for sucking me into the zone.syncapated electronic stimulus:hyper
Aw maaaaaan try come with us by the chemical brothers it's too cool. Cannot wait for the DLC. :+

thx to Darkdrium777 i didn't know C.S. made that mix.
http://www.coldstorage.org.uk/music.html
http://www.icecubes.org.uk/mp3/Albin...ED_EYE_Mix.zip
I've been reluctant to say I like these, but the fact is, I listen to them while playing WOHD a LOT - so it's time I face the facts...
Armin Van Buuren - A State Of Trance Year Mix 2008
It flows so smoothly, yet it has enough beat for Wipeout, I have it ripped as a single track - so it progresses nicely. Especially good for a long TT / SL session, or tournaments.
Nightmusic Volume 3 Mixed By The Thrillseekers
Another good one I've been playing to for a while.
Both of these have vocals, but they aren't distracting at all, the music seems to keep pace even with.
Didn't try classic rock atm though that's what I'm listening most of the time, I love the album Direct by Vangelism but I think many of his songs could be good for wipeout too like Spiral or the End Titles of Blade runner :)
see
Vangelis - Elsewhere :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=su3i-jX5pnI
Vangelis - Intergalactic Radio Station :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI6t6vW4VpA
Vangelis - Blade Runner (End Titles) :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiW6n...om=PL&index=19
of course given that you might guess which mode is my favorite ;)
Bad Company - The Nine
Bad Company - Pulse
Hustle Athletics - Lekker EP
Rascal&Clone - Hyperkenetic
Sasha - Xpander (David Newsum Remix)
Ridgewalkers - Find
Max Graham - Automatic Weapon / Does She Know Yet
not to brag, but Noisia are actually friends of mine hehe, we even preformed together a few times. We always have a great time, talkin about all the good old days when drum n bass wasnt that big in the netherlands.(and wich tracks will be on the next wipeout hehe, inside information!) Maybe some of you have the track they made together with Cyrax, wich is my turntable partner in crime.
