What's the most annoying music possible?
What's the most annoying music possible?
The house next door to me is going up for sale soon and I’d like to delay that process as much as possible. What would be the most annoying music I could play when prospective buyers are next door?
Reggae can be fun, especially to dance to, but when heard through a wall, you mostly hear the bass and all reggae has the same bass track. It's almost comical, like that beat is a requirement of the genre. After hours of reggae you'll wanna smash that stereo.
Alright. Y'all ever hear about the shaggs?
A dad was told by a fortune teller that his yet-unborn kids were destined for musical stardom. After that, the dad had no choice but to force his eventual kids into a band.
These kids had no musical training. No sense of rhythm, no sense of pitch.
Their released music is the auditory equivalent of a child's crayon drawing hung on the fridge. It's astoundingly disjointed. It's all wrong. Frank Zappa said they're better than the Beatles. SOMEONE out there likes screamo. Some folks out there like bagpipes. Then what happens? Your neighbor loves blasting screamo. You've played yourself. Unless Frank Zappa is moving in, you'd be hard pressed to find a potential buyer that like the shaggs.
When German people go to hell, or skiing, they are forced into little tents, served shitty overpriced beer, and are subject to repeated blows to their ears by a type of parasitic earworm whispered fearfully only in dark circles as "schlagermusik".
Once exposed to it, it eats into their brain and gets behind their eyeballs, forcing them to wear manic grins, and tap tables to the weak, incoherent, barely thought out beats drumming mercilessly into what's left of their soul.
I'm just going to say Nightcore.
I get that Nightcore has an audience, but what makes it annoying for me is when I am trying to search for an obscure song and think I've found it, only to realize that it's yet another low-effort nightcore remix.
I'm not certain about the most annoying, but this song is pretty bad
There's always the risk that people who visit the house next door are into whatever annoying music you're playing and end up moving there and blasting it for the rest of your life
I'll raise "Sales Call Abyss", a hold music made for torturing telemarketers if you have access to your work's phone exchange
Skrillex
*takes extra deep breath
Fuck I hated middle school
Why annoying?
Based on what kind of people they are, you might be able to get away with something else. Maybe play some Christian music if you think they don't want to live next to a god-botherer. If you're bible-belt, put one of those 24 hour Mecca livestreams on loud, and go do your grocery shopping or something.
If you want just plain annoying, you can't go wrong with Justin Bieber or tween pop.
It is, and always will be, children's music, like Baby Shark.
You need to look up Komar & Melamid. They did market research art, and they commissioned "The Least Favorite Song" after a survey that showed the least favorite features of songs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_People's_Choice_Music#The_Most_Unwanted_Song
Anything played with the recorder
Limburg Carnaval music. Hoompapa hoompapa…or Darude - Sandstorm on repeat.
A novelty Christmas song played six months after it spent six plus weeks at number one in the (TOTP) charts. "Aga do" anyone?
[Not sure that any recent charts in this century are worth a damn.]
Can't go wrong with the Goat Simulator soundtrack. https://youtu.be/DHdpuzqD2wg

Clown Core is for those with discerning tastes.
It's something that I don't know whether it's a dying subgenre ofa subgenre (genre?), but the nightcore music where all they do is speed up the music and shift the pitch. Literally no other edits. I would be running fast if a neighbor of mine started blasting that.
My highschool blasted Christmas in Ignace - Arrogant Worms every single day during fundraising drives, they'd stop when they hit their goals. Was very effective.
Why try to delay it? Also trying to buy a house in this economy sheesh
Play banana phone on repeat 24/7 at max volume
The ice cream truck in my area plays the calliope version of “It’s a Small World” every summer, every day, and I want to burn it all down when I hear it. Alternatively, you could plays sounds that are above the adult frequency of hearing if they have children. The kids will be super annoyed and the adults will have no idea it’s even happening. Look up the “mosquito tone”.
The Cattle Callin album buy Hank III. Every song is "music" played along with cattle auctioneers doing their thing
Nyam cat for sure
I'm so sorry.
Someone went ahead of me and mentioned Nightcore, but I'll add any song by DJ KHALED would work too.
Opera singing and high pitched violin
I vote for Japanische Kampfhörspiele!

Edit: I take it back. This is awesome. Those laser guns are legit.
Not sure about annoying, but have you considered psyopus? It tends to be my goto to piss people off
Crazy Frog
This is not a judgement of the musical genre and I think it's way more profound and expressive than the average commodified pop music we have. However, I remember making a report about the history of music (for an arts appreciation class in college) and I ended the report with some Japanoise (a genre of noise music) like this one:
The teacher was really delighted, but my classmates were like "WTF?"
EDIT: Reworded some confusing sentence construction
happy hardcore
Turn on the radio (to a contemporary pop station) and you'll see. Especially with all that christmas music right now.
The soundtrack to The Music Man
Nightcore and heavy mental.
It's not necessarily the most annoying- but to give an impression that you are people you do not want to live next to, just crank some psytrance. I love me a good doof party, but holy shit I would not want to live next to one.
You will Annoy the shit out of people if you play this, especially '@@@@@' at full volume
The Crazy Bus Title Scree theme
Scat
Baaabyyyyyy SHARK! Dolodolldoo, Baby shark dolldollodoo, baby shark !
If you really want the sale to not happen, put any brazilian funk on max volume. "Proibidão" for the worst of the worst
For me, it has to do with context.
Upbeat pop music while heading to the finish line of a 5k? Pretty good.
Upbeat pop music while I'm waiting in the psychiatrist's office so I can tell them my life is spiraling out of control? Not preferable.
I dont know its Name, but there was once some phonk music in my local tech store that mostly just repeated „toma toma toma” by the most annoying sounds in existence. Its cover was red. If anyone knows it, please tell me
German "Schlager"
Anything Morgan Wallen.
