Hey /mu/ I'm a twinky little white boy that has never skateboarded or seldom even done anything athletic in my life and I've been hired to make a website for a skateboard clothing company
I don't know if the aesthetic of these things is over my head but I could really use some inspiration or generally things that do skateboard culture justice
Here are some examples:

>>66386201
Blink-182

Hip hop

>>66386244
>>66386274

SO HERE I AM
Just listen to any Tony Hawk soundtrack
If it's a decent brand just use whatever music you want (look at what supreme uses)

But dude. You gotta try skateboarding to understand the vibe. Nothing quite like skating barefoot down a hill in nothing but boxers and a T-shirt. Like, an adrenaline rush and meditation at the same time.
Try Little Wings "the shredder" and the shredder sequel
>>66386201
no
none of this will do
some early 90s / late 80s hip hop, but not gangsta rap

Awesome thanks guys, I'll give it a listen soon as I can
Watch a couple skate vids by girl, chocolate or toy machine. They've all got good music. Also the king of the road comps hv good tunes too.
>>66386201
Ska punk is the way to go. Operation Ivy, Choking Victim(Leftover Crack now), and NOFX are all fair game.
Its also probably good to go back to hardcore punk in the early 80's, Dead Kennedys and Bad Brains are good places to start.
Can't beat tony hawk soundtracks for skate music introductions
Some best ofs:

The Offspring's Smash, Suicidal Tendancies' s/t, NOFX's Punk in Drublic, some Metallica, underground hip hop, gangster hip hop and some good ska punk are great introductories to skate vibes.
If you want the full skate experience, go watch some classic skate tapes, I'm pretty sure all issues of the 411VM tapes are on youtube and loads of classics are up there too.
Essential part of skate history is definitely Search For Animal Chin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STqE9JXgKJU
Seriously though, play some Tony Hawk games. The videos and everything are pure skate and it will introduce you to some GOAT skaters. Just stick to THPS1 through to American Wasteland.

HOLDIN' ON TO WHAT I AM
Underground 2 Soundtrack
>>66386201
I really hope you realize that skaters just listen to what they like. Most I know mostly listen to hip hop.
I listen to chvrches while I skate

my skate friends liked the skate 3 soundtrack a lot, also joey badass
>>66386221
Hitting a no comply over a mulch bed right into a pop shove it hippy jump over a security gate blasting too drunk to fuck is a good feeling.
Goldfinger
Adele? She used to rip southbank
>>66393961
Lol what?
>>>>66393961
Bitch owes me a bag of weed and a box of fudge rounds. Wouldnt even shread southbank with me. You'd think maybe she'd at least sing a little to me? Nah shes passed out before we got back. Left her in the car and went to a party.
>>66394057
She didn't rip exactly. Ollied the stairs and flipped on the banks. She used to stay down all night boozing with us. She was a bit of a skate groupie
fu manchu is the way to go
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqYeedwEA4E
first three wavves albums are the way to go
If yr just doing a sesh. I go with hiphop (RTJ, wu tang, death grips, gucci mane) old punk (discharge up through lagwagon, leftover crack) psychedelic rock (uncle acid), stoner rock (truckfighters, Kyushu) T. rex, bong ripper, sleep, the clash, the ramones, and many more.
Just do what you want to enjoy OP. I'll blast Ariana Grande while I fuck some streets or pools up.
