What will be the first song coming out of the speakers of your Aptera.
My kick off: Peter Fox, Haus am See….

First Song: Let’s Go Brandon!
-
@Blanco 👍
“When the tigers broke free” Pink Floyd
-
Pink Floyd for me too…Set the controls for the heart of the sun
-
only song, this poll is done.
Anything else needs heaps of Ad Hominem or Argumentum Absurdum to stop ’em in their tracks, for they are knuckle dragging flat earthers 🤓

I am trying to listen to everyone’s song so I listened to this song last night. I’ve listened to Pink Floyd for 40 years but never their earlier stuff, just the wall on, this song has a great story behind it, never heard it before, maybe I can call myself a true fan now. Thanks for sharing.

Much much better would be FDT.

Driving your Aptera, passing thru..Brandon Falls. 😂

Solar Power by Lorde!
-
Nice song, very laid back and relaxed!
-
🌞 Solar Power has got my vote. 🤗

Brahms’ String Quintet #2 in GM, Op. 111 – nothing tests the range and accuracy of a speaker system better than acoustic string music: The sparkle of the high violins must be clear and crisp and the mellow depths of the cello must resonate in your solar plexus.
-
For every time you pull out of a lot into the street, you could always go with a little Strauss…
Also Sprach Zarathustra, Op. 30

this is also very nice.

A true audiophile! If it was classical I would select The Bartered Bride by Smetana
-
-
<div>Well I’ll be super excited to drive it for the first time so something like this 😁</div>https://youtu.be/t5s0m8HezW0
-
Nice song!
-

Whole lot of thoughts and choices here, (Really wish the children with no impulse control towards the top weren’t trying to spoil things though.) But I think I might go with…..

“Child with no impulse control…” Yeah, trying to spoil things. Christopher Cross’ Ride Like the Wind or Wu Tang Clan’s Protect Ya Neck 😁
-
its been a long time since I heard Christopher Cross. What a great voice!
-
I would listen to Christopher Cross as a kid in the 80’s all night, love that song. Supertramp, Boston, Rush, Boston, Alan Parsons. Good stuff.

Ahhh, the offending items were removed from above, the sweet sound of future Aptera owners who don’t feel the need to make every post a political shot at someone, rules the day.

Great taste in music, Oz. I was about to chime in when I found this. Now I’m thinking of changing to Let it Roll. Actually, a lot of good ideas here. Think I might put a personal Aptera mix together for that first ride from California to South Carolina. In the mean time (probably about a year before delivery), here is the beginning of a short list to consider:
1) Let it Roll.
2) Finger Tips (Stevie Wonder).
3) O Fortuna from Carina Burana (Carl Orff).
4) first movement of Verdi’s Requiem.
5) finale of the Saint-Sean’s Organ Symphony no. 3.
6) Money for Nothing (Dire Straits).
Starting to get excited. Think I’ll add the upgraded sound system to my order.
-
-
Not sure why, but this one sounds just right for the occasion. (Although Oz’s “Let It Roll” by Little Feat is fitting and has always been one of my favorites.)
-
Ooh, I like that one. 👍
-
This I like a lot!!!
-
Never underestimate the healing power of gibberish……

KraftWerk: Autobahn, followed by Eagles: Take it to the Limit.
Cars! MEATLOAF! Paradise by the Dashboard Lights!
Also thought of Also Spracht Zarathustra
-
Guy, actually it should be rigged to play Also Spracht Zarathustra on outside speakers anytime you start it up, or ideally as the valet brings it out for you.

George Jetsons theme song as I head off to work.
-
Some classic techno, lol. Want to test the sound system. I don’t listen to techno much, but when I do, nice speakers help.
-
I haven’t listened to this album in ages! That’s going on the playlist for today 😁
-
inspiration for me yes!
-
Yes! The guitars at 1:00 are my quick test for any automobile sound system. That song was my introduction to Infected Mushroom.
-
-
Whatever is playing on The Beatles Channel on SiriusXM.
-
Awesome!
-

That’s a very difficult question to answer. Too many factors to contemplate. There will be at least a year before I get mine. No telling what B@$$ Ad song comes out between now and then. My mood, day of the week, and who is around can change what that selection will be.
As of this very moment without putting much thought into this, here’s my probable top 5:
“Cars” by Fear Factory (cover) or the original by Gary Numan
“Going The Distance” by Cake.
“High Speed Weekend Survivor” by Feed Me
“Energy Wizard” by Squarepusher
“Carry The Sun” by The Glitch Mob
-
Lifted by Trombone Shorty.
-
give us ability to change fake engine sound, someone can apply a higher pitch version of lexus lfa exhuast, or whatever. inside cabin sound only.
-
Beatles, “Here comes the sun!”
-
Oh, yeah that is a great one!
-
-
<div>This first song, just because it feels like a win</div>

-
Wow!!
-
-
Soak up the sun
-
Cheryl Crow yeah!
-
Great choice! This songe came to mind for me, as well.
-
-
Ride of the Valkyries by Richard Wagner
-
Another great one. Just don’t say, “I love the smell of napalm in the morning”. 😆
-
Good beat!
Wish I knew more German than Gesundheit and other lines from Hogan Hero’s
-
Thanks. That’s my Aptera Blackmobile (Noir) Battle Cry
Always an adrenaline rush upon intro 😂
-
You can practice with that first suggestion…hahaha

Eric, you can read the English translation here: https://lyricstranslate.com/en/Haus-am-See-House-lake.html

Going with the Pink Floyd theme, “Learning to Fly” Next segment courtesy of Brit Floyd, an excellent tribute- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU5Wme_Y3DA Aptera, wing-less bird, seems apropos. Just an Earth-bound misfit, I…

Scorpions – Rock You Like A Hurricane

To test audio in new car speakers, I’ve always used Queen and 39 and the Prophet Song! They get me speakers range and channels going back and forth.
Queen – ’39
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNc9DDDr9qE
Queen – The Prophet Song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idILBuDuVqY
But for some quality mood music for driving in such a sweet ride, can I recommend instead:
Four80East – Eastside
-
My go-to audio test music is the credit music from “Cry Freedom”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Juam-4pPgyUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Juam-4pPgyU
James! Fly to Pretoria!

The first thing that sprang to mind was Willie Nelson singing “On the road again, like a band of gypsies we go down the highway…”
But truthfully, when I pick the vehicle up in Carlsbad, there will be silence for quite a while. I have to hear to it talk to me for quite a ways before I’m comfortable playing music.
