Music for fast paced chess games.

Sort:

I don't really play too many live games but in some of my correspondence games they move at a pretty fast pace.  I've been playing and listening to music as I play...since...pretty much always.  Its what I do I guess.  Anyway I think the Beastie Boys - Hello Nasty is a good one to play chess to (for me anyway). 

What do you listen to when you play?

Grieg - In the hall of the mountain king

Surely I can't be the only one to think that fast paced music doesn't suit any kind of chess?

These all are great fast paced songs!

P.S. If you want to find out which one is which, just listen to all of them, you won't be disappointed ;)

@Kyriazis I totally see how that is great for chess! Love it!

@Razdomille Why not? It makes perfect sense.  You should give it a try, its fun!

@Karatekitte You really like video games, huh?

@Estragon I like some of your suggestions...but not all.  We all have different musical tastes I guess.  That's okay though.  We all still love chess and wouldn't be on here if we did not. 

Thanks all for the input!

 

Heavy Metal and chess go together for me at times!  Rap/Hip Hop and chess work for me at times.  It all really depends on my mood, and how the games are going too.

Entombed's Wolverine blues album hits the spot for me.

Any Music that touches the soul, or any music that is familiar with rehearsal or hit song are all favorites of mine :P)
