Favourite background music while on DayZ

[philbottle 430]

Being a bit of a punk rocker (wish I'd be born 10 years earlier sometimes) I like to listen to Poison Idea or even a bit of Conflict when I'm racing through the wilderness on my own.

If I'm sitting down for a campfire to cook some meat and get myself warm I might play something from the Congos, nice and mellow like.

I'm pretty sure we'd have to go back to the walkman and cassettes in our batteries-only future so I'd get taping now if I were you!

Here's my DayZ Island Discs:

1. Dead Kennedys

2. Poison Idea

3. Blitz

4. Conflict

5. Cockney Rejects/Sparrer

6. The Congos

7. Hugh Mundell

8. King Tubby/Lee Perry

9. Ramones

10. Motorhead

I pity my travelling partner, but what do you/would you listen to?

I like Dead Kennedys and Ramones...plus Slayer too but now I listen to Epic songs.

So, when I'm hunting (players) and find one I play Audiomachine Collossus and open up the mic...so if you hear the song below that means that your END is near.

SPOILER ALERT = Contains scenes from the ending of Games of Thrones season 2.

Nothing at all :P complete silence. With music on you cannot hear an AS50 shot 100 meters away... XD

[tiresomehoopla 37]

I prefer Silence or DayZ ambiance when I travel. When i'm in a fight, silence (Well, aside from gun shots.)

[-Gews- 7443]

The A-Team theme song.

[YorkEagle 23]

surely louis armstrong’s "what a wonderful world" would suit dayz ... just as the inkspots "set the world on fire" did for the fallout 3 intro

[beastoverlord 574]

I turn off the in-game music and only have the effect active. That way I can pay attention to my teamspeak channel and the world around me.

[Dancing.Russian.Man 1631]

Hold on, let me get a list..

Honestly I don't listen to much while playing but when I do it's usually Thin Lizzy or the No Agenda Show.

[philbottle 430]

Think I missed a trick here. Plety of zed related music out there already.

Survivor

Zed Zeppelin

Talking Deads

etc etc :D

Oh God, I don't like the in-game music. I can get confused if I'm in a tense situation and momentarily think it was a zombie or gunshots.

[krihelion 175]

None, Its harder hear whats going on around you.

I enjoy cruising around the map playing this over direct. The Joey Ramone cover is also enjoyable. I think it has a calming effect on players.

[RedUkraine 5]

Usually just the DayZ ambience. Perhaps if I DO fix up my party bus you may here a variety of music... Mainly "Fortunate Son" (Creedence Clearwater Revival) While going through Elektro with more than enough snipers taking potshots at the beautiful bus.

[jubeidok 495]

Rain.

[philbottle 430]

It does rain a lot lol

[RJTurneR 112]

If I play any game while listening to music I play like crap. Only time I play music is on games like GTA, where you just mess about anyway, or like zombies on CoD, some epic music holding off hordes of zombies.

But yeah, how you can play DayZ with music is beyond me. Surely it leaves you at a fairly large disadvantage?

[FinalNinja447 129]

Running in DayZ with this song. Love it.

EDIT: Instrumental version*

[jeremiahn 7]

You're kidding right?

In the house, in a heartbeat - john Murphy, a.k.a. theme of 28 days later

Or....any Burzum

[BioHazard050 49]

Feint, Snake Eyes.

Voicians, Fighters.

Plenty more where that came from, but im too lazy to post the rest :P

[privatewolf 59]

Metalcore, generally.

I always listen to:

August Burns Red and Crown The Empire

(1:00 to skip the intro) Edited January 23, 2013 by WolfOneSix

[h0rschd 27]

this and more from the MP3 soundtrack, i think it fits DayZ pretty well

[bloodtrozorx 145]

Dean Martin, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, the Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas soundtracks and Screamin' Jay Hawkins

[bloodbathsback 5]

This is the only song to roll with in this game. Spam it in direct when you see someone, epic adventures await you.

Don't listen to music, I need that extra sense.
