W00t That's What I Call Geeky Music! Vol.1


I was just thinking a bit more about Spotify and realised I've never tried out the collaborative playlists.

So in the spirit of social networking I have created the (potentially) ultimate nerd album: W00t That's What I Call Geeky Music! Vol.1.

Click it, launch it, and add your geekiest choons. I added some classic Tori to kick things off. If you add a song, let me know which one in the comments...

Let's create a social soundtrack!

You cannot have a geek music list without 'They Might Be Giants'.

Particle Man, Particle Man.
Universe Man, Universe Man.
Triangle Man, Triangle Man.
Person Man, Person Man.

Dont forget about me - the geek gets the girl in The Breakfast Club

Ultravox - Vienna
Muse - Muscle Museum
Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism

Samwell said...

Gimme Shelter by the Stones (one of the all time greatest songs in the history of songs) and Boy Named Sue by Johnny Cash.

I might have also added a certain baggy trousered legend (and I'm not talking about Madness) :-P

Slipped in Dopplereffekt – CellularPhone. The best of geek pop ;)

Jon said...

Nice.

We're nearing the ideal soundtrack to late night blogging / coding / hackering...

Time to make the album cover, methinks.

Knights of Cydonia -- Muse -- Boy-e
and a splash of green day makes any geek list complete

Just added Blue Monday...because incredibly nobody had yet. You have to have early electro pop indie in there. Couldn't bring myself to add Kraftwerk or M, and in the end New Order just edged out Depeche Mode.

I have added another song... Because all geeks wish they were a little bit taller!
