I would say something quick but slow in parts. Muse perhaps? Pendulum and Daft Punk do have that diabolo-ey feeling to them. Arctic Monkeys or The Fratellis even??

pendulum - blood sugar, propane nightmares, granite, slam

i also like slow beat, relaxing songs to train to :
tommy lee - good times
kid rock - all summer long
bob marley - all of his songs!!!
stevie wonder
etc..

but sometimes i am in the mood for rock...

I've (~recently) been listening a lot to these albums while diaboloing:

The Roots - Things Fall Apart
RJD2 - Deadringer
Wax Tailor - Hope & Sorrow
Typhoon - Tussen Licht en Lucht
Gorillaz - Demon Days
Novastar - Almost Banger (dunno, but for some reason it really works for me

)

Any objections to me using Jump by Van Halen in my montage?

i recently found math (track name) in obsolete? (CD name) by pixelh8 (artist) when looking for 8-bit
music ( classic computer game type songs) it has a very good beat and it is simple so the audience (if there is any) concentrate on the diabolo more than the music. But it is quite short so i lengthend it on a music editing program (Garage Band on mac)

p.s please tell me what you think about my posts as i have been away a little while and have grown uncertain about my posting style.

If you enjoy pixelh8's stuff and 8-bit music, check out 8bitpeoples, an internet label specialising in chiptune music. Not my usual sort of thing but I quite enjoy "Sting Operation" by Anamanaguchi.

Or you could try making your own 8-bit sounds using Famitracker, a tracking program that produces music on an emulated NES sound chip.

Porcupine Tree - great progressive rock, lots of variety, long songs. works for performances too

Ok Go - many great songs, kinda rock/pop/rhythms, great for practice

Featurecast's and Prodigy's music is good diabolo music.

Marijn · « **Reply #334 on:** May 31, 2009, 09:44:49 AM »

I've been listening to the Jurassic 5 LP a lot lately. Perfectly laid-back for a nice practice session

RandomSeaBadger · « **Reply #337 on:** July 04, 2009, 02:59:53 PM »

I quite like Rokia Traore stuff, "Zen" is a good summery track for the headphones!

almost anything used in the right context is good music to diabolo to.
