Music Fan Irritated At Lack OF EDM Based Soccer Chants

NEW YORK - NYCFC fan Carl Harbottle was reportedly irritated at the lack of EDM based soccer chants as he encouraged fans around the league to start adapting songs from his favorite genre for their teams.

“EDM Lyrics are just 1 to 2 bar samples anyway. They lend themselves to chants,” stated Harbottle to The Nutmeg News. “I don't think it's THAT hard to get everyone to simultaneously sing the part of Deadmau5 2448 where the beat drops. EVERYONE knows that song. That’s just an easy thing to do. It’s not like I’m asking people to sing s950tx16wasr10 from Syro by Aphex Twin. Now THAT would be a challenge for only the greatest supporters group and I really think we can get it going next season if we focus and have 10 to 15 extra-curricular practices with a trained vocal coach.”

According to Harbottle, performing the complicated upbeat tracks would not be difficult if Supporters Groups would organize themselves better.

“Screamers get to the starboard side of the group! Anyone with ADHD get buckets and sticks! I'm working on being able to imitate Aphex Twin's Roland MC-4 Microcomposer synth from the Analord 1 days. Everyone else spin in a circle and try to imitate the hollow sound of a percussive beat, but don’t pass out!”

With Harbottle putting the challenge out to fans across the league he said that he doesn’t really want to be pretentious about the whole scenario.

“What’s important is finding a new well for fans to sing from. So, here's an oldie that everyone knows. When they're introducing the starting players Fire Fans could do, ‘Chicago Fire Starters.... Twisted Chicago Fire Starters,’ and that’s just the start. Sporting Kansas City fans could sing the synth part from Eric Prydz Opus or they could go with something simple like the booming part of Hardwell’s Spaceman. It would be easy.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as Harbottle tries to start a letter writing campaign to have all night games start with glow sticks and the stadium lights turned off.
