Mr Azar Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Specifically, an alarm to wake up to . Heck, I don't even mind part of a track (as that can be cut out), as long as the music in question doesn't get old fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noTuX Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Anything by Prototype Raptor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I've always been partial to Stemage's Crispy Crimson, because of the opening. Another good one is "Stage 1 (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)" from Shnabubula's NES Jams album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melbu Frahma Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Personally, gotta go with AnSo's The Life and Death of the Mario Brothers. EDIT: Ooh, nice choice Proto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xarnax42 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I have had 'Love the Game' from Ben Briggs' Attention Deficit EP as one of my alarms for over a year now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike911 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Scare the living hell out of yourself and use the Metal Gear Solid "Alert" sound with this track: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EovgoaV-Iws Every. Time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollgagh Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 What the heck do you guys use for playing music as alarms anyway I can't stand leaving computers on overnight just for that purpose, so I was curious if you guys used something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 either my computer since it's on all the time anyways or my phone. computer usually uses "Crispy Crimson," phone usually uses the TMNT2 track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garpocalypse Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 You DO NOT want to do this!!! If you use a piece of music you like as an alarm you are eventually going to hate the music through reassociating it with what you are using it for. For example, something I will never forgive myself for, I used one of my favorite Uematsu pieces, Find Your Way, as my ring tone for when work called me. My logic at the time was that it would put me in a better mood to deal with whatever BS i was being called about. Now, i shudder whenever I hear the song. Nothing quite fills me with dread about the immediate future like Find Your Way (which i guess isn't entirely against the mood of the music). My advice is to put a piece of music on your alarm you really really really hate. It will get you up faster, you'll be more awake, and so help anyone who looks at you cockeyed that morning! And you wont mind hating that song because... you already hate it! This one scared the crap out me for years when i was a kid. I don't think I was capable of playing my beloved Sonic games without hitting the mute button when underwater until damn near highschool.

EC2151 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 EC is on the right track. Only one soundchip can sound so inherently awful, and that's the ZX Spectrum! (though to be fair there are gems hidden in that primitive machine) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
