Music used in XCM?

[Seanhawk23]

Alright, after the weirdness of my last thread, I decided to get down to serious business. I am pretty sure the following has been discussed before in other threads, but what kind of music do you people use/believe magicians should use in XCM or magic? I'm not talking just about youtube or magic shows, which are definitely within the realm of answers, but just normal ambient music that could help you practice. My choice is rave music for this sort of thing (seems right for XCM).

So... any suggestions? Tell me, what is your music style?

I listen to music that inspires me, or has a good beat. Both end up bieng Techno Music/ Electronica, so...

CELLDWELLER FTW!

Oh, also, I'm looking for new stuff to put on my iPod, so names of the artist, album, and/or track would be appreciated

I think the music should be something that makes it look like the performer is feeding off of the beat and energy of the song.

Feeding off the beat and energy of the song... What do you mean?

311, The Last Shadow Puppet, Metric, Riverside, Magnum, Dana's stuff, Artic Monkeys, Cage The Elephant, Nova, Yves Klein Blues and others.

All worth a listen.
Particularly 311's latest, I'm hooked on it. and Yves Klein Blues, full of win.

This is pretty much just background music as I practice though.

Wow you said a mouthful. I'm going to look into those when i get a chance, thanks.

Right now i want to get a good song to make a video with. I am getting decent at cardistry, definitely good enough to make a small video to put on facebook, but i want to get the perfect song for it. Any ideas for a good song?

I am very much into linkin park type songs,especially the new one "New divide" but i believe it is too mainstream. Plus, i wanna add sound effects when i do something cool like de'vo does for the cobra videos. And all his videos for that matter.
