#skate soundtracks

[thebonesofhoudini]

My skate soundtracks have changed over the decades. Back in the late 90s to early 2000s, I would record underground hip-hop radio shows on cassette and listen to them on my boombox whenever I would go skate (inspired by Chad Muska).

But now, I've been experimenting with listening to different genres of music when I skate like Ambient, House, Techno, Shoegaze, Downtempo, really anything goes when I'm on my board.

not to figure skating post on an f1 rpf blog but ilia malinin (currently probably the best men's skater in the world) repeatedly doing programs to kpop songs and popular tv show soundtracks when the majority of figure skating programs are choreographed to classical music of some sort is so fucking funny to me. king shit??

On May 21, 1998, the first soundtrack (ost) for the popular anime series "Cowboy Bebop" was released. One of the standouts of the series was the jazz inspired music. The show would kick off with these words, "I think it's time we blow this scene. Get everybody and the stuff together. Okay, three, two, one let's jam," and then launch into the driving theme "Tank!" The theme was even used by the figure skater Kevin Reynolds, dressed as the show's lead Spike Spiegel, in one of his short programs. Most of the music was performed by composer Yoko Kanno's band "Seatbelts" that she put together for the show. The first album contained the tracks "Tank! (opening theme)", "Rush", "Spokey Dokey", "Bad Dog No Biscuits", "Cat Blues", "Cosmos", "Space Lion", "Waltz for Zizi", "Piano Black", "Pot City", "Too Good Too Bad", "Car24", "The Egg and I", "Felt Tip Pen", "Rain (lyrics by Tim Jensen and performed by Steve Conte)", "Digging My Potato", and "Memory - music box".

It's been a while since I've posted a big digital art piece, so tada!

I got the idea for the Hello Kitty roller skates and the Heelys from a couple of friends and for some reason decided to make them into fully-rendered illustrations with amplified perspectives for some reason. I've also really started to love the pink/cyan/yellow color combo, so I used that in both drawings.

(Also Maria probably has really goth/punk roller skates that look like this or something:)

throwback to that time when I was in my first year of high school and I got a concussion while listening to ex-wives from six

I don’t think I’ve said it on here before but why didn’t ice dance teams immediately jump to use 80’s movie soundtracks instead of terribly editing the same 5 songs for the rhythm dance.
