practicing with music

[DerfMidWest]

so yea, there are a ton of music topics and stuff, and they are all lame.

but I made this one because I noticed that I always practice tech skill and stuff to one or two songs, and whenever I listen to those songs when I play against other people it boosts my confidence and makes me more technically consistent and all that...

has anybody else tried this?

anyway, if anybody cares, I listen to this song a lot:

or the dj ozma version

so yea, just wanted to share this little tidbit. Its pree cool to have a little auto confidence boost in tournament and stuff.

find headphones distracting when playing melee so i cant really use those.
i have thought about bringing a metronome with 200bpm and wobbling people but that does not really help me i have found. tho it would be mad mindgames
also,
my favorite songs right now, Taylor Mcferrin's

Otherwise its the game's music and like above said, audio cues. Because yknow srsface matches. Stuff with high BPM and good synths pumps me up. When I really wanna practice my tech skill I'll put on ambient D&B. The frenetic beats kicks and hats are fun to try and match.

Well i originally started using headphones because i find tournament environments distracting and rely more on visual ques than audio

i like the song vanir. i listen to music sometimes during friendlies or when i'm just practicing.
i kinda agree that the game audio can help me be more consistent with my tech. but also i feel that when i dont have the game audio playing, i can focus better on the visuals: specifically spacing and not doing random tech/wavelands/attacks that arent smart. i can focus more on understanding/reacting to my opponent.

yeah, but u gotta listen to some metroid when u need to get ur samus ready for gaming!

GUNPUNCH THE PEACH MAIN :D

but yea, I think its a personal preference kind of thing, if you use game audio a lot then its harder to play with the music, but I never used it, so its easier for me.
Also metroid music is super boss.

also, @rawrimamonster: yoooo I love hardstyle, but I don't listen to it for smash anymore because the slow tempo throws my ICs off .-.
I do melbourne shuffle though, sooooooo ^^
