Hello one and all, you may or may not have heard my band from the other threads I posted (www.myspace.com/ascensionbanduk).

Anyway we love to have a laugh at gigs and so have really cool (read: cheesy) classical music as Intro music...

We have used "Mars" by Holst (I edited it shorter) and also the Kirk vs. Spock fight scene music (from Amok Time) - they have gone down awesomely!

Now I am looking for more music along those lines... really powerful, just awesome intro music!! Any ideas?

We use "Faith of the Heart" (The ST: Enterprise theme music) as "outro music" when we are tidying up lol... it's awesome too!!!

Help Ascension OCUK! Much Obliged!

We used to chop loads of Kung-Fu samples in...In homage to a certain UKHC band ;)

"YOU MUST DIE! I SHALL SUCCEED! YOU MUST DIE! I ALONE AM BEST!"

*Cue blitzkreig drums, guitars tuned down to A (NOT drop-tuned), a wall of feedback and growling that would put anyone to shame*

I was thinking more Classical music but I admire those suggestions lol!!

I like "For those about to rock" - that would be cooll...

the awesome thing about the outro music "Faith ..." is that I didn't have time to tidy my gear as I was leading the crowd in a swaying, lighters in the air type way! was bloody awesome i tell thee..

but anyways back to the intro!!

Steal an idea from D. Bowie and play some Beethoven from the 'Clockwork Orange' soundtrack, try the William Tell Overture :)
I guess that it should be something that people will recognise so how about something from '2001 a space odyssey'?

We used to start with Pink Floyd's "Pigs on the Wing Part 1" and end with "Pigs on the Wing Part 2" but it fit our style / the other songs quite well.

Play a rock version of the Star Wars theme, or Pachabel's Canon like the guitar kid :p
