Good music for Pumping people up

Good music for Pumping people up

I have to DJ a Pep Rally for our D1 Football team.

any ideas for some good songs that get people going.

i was thinking along the lines of
Dada life -Kick out the epic
maybe some Aoki
Who is ready to jump- Chuckie

Any other ideas?

Play music they know, and add a twist to it.

Good luck

Bumaye - dimitri Vegas and like mike remix

Who (pharoahe Monch sample) - tujamo and plastik funk - or you could just use Simon Says by Pharoahe Monch.

Stand up (halftime) - Henry Fong

pep rally = epic classic megamix

dude this megamix has been pumping up pep rallys for over 15 years, and will continue to do so.

Its pretty much Americas second national anthem haha

Some tracks of my personal collection:

DVBBS & Borgeous - Tsunami
Carnage & Borgore - Incredible
Knife Party - Rage Valley
Daddy’s Groove - Stellar (Martin Garrix Remix)
Deadmau5 & Wolfgang Gartner - Channel 42 (Nom De Strip Remix)
Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike - Wakanda
Don Diablo - Give It All (Don Diablo & CID Remix)
John Dahlbäck - Life [Diamonds In The Dark] (Feenixpawl Remix)
Miike Snow - Devil’s Work (Dirty South Remix)
Nari & Milani - Atom
Steve Aoki - Ladi Dadi (Tommy Trash Remix)
Style Of Eye & Tom Staar - After Dark (Hard Rock Sofa Remix)
Tiësto - Adagio For Strings (Blasterjaxx Remix)

Grandmaster Flash and the Furius Five - Pump Me Up.

Do guys really get motivated by that electro/progressive house stuff? I can’t stand it when I work out at the gym.

This

Not sure how a room full of everyday people will like to bangout to a bunch of thrashy electro.

Bumaye is by Major Lazer, Diplo is pretty much a household name these days, and it’s just a good song to get up to.

The Pharoahe Monch sample is instantly recognizable. Then again I guess I’m a bit older than most college age kids by a year or two - or 5 for freshman, but I assume Simon Says is still a well known sample.

Henry Fong’s stand up is pretty easy to groove to and the marching theme fits in with a pep rally.

Or you could just play jock jams volume 7 I guess? I dunno. Be cliche and open up with some fatboy slim Whomp! Then be ironic and play a lesser known Fatboy Slim track. The hipsters will go apeshit, you will be a god amongst individuals who were Gods before it was cool, and became human as an ironic display of their godlike powers.

I know what you mean, but if he’s playing for faculty and parents too then who knows.

Actually, Bumaye is by The Flexican and Typhoon (Dutch rapper) and was originally released around 2005:

Technotronic - Pump up the jam,
Robin S - Show me love

:cry: you got me. Lol. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

But the Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike remix is a remix of Diplo’s remix…sooo…agree to disagree?

Please don’t.

That youtube video is jokes!

Sandstorm…

You can’t go wrong.
