Like the song "Airwave" makes me think OH NO THE BOMBERS ARE COMING! QUICK EVERYBODY TO THE SHELTER!
And lo and behold, that's what the song sounds like--a squadorn of B-1s dropping ordnance on hapless peons below. Let this song be a warning to all: When you hear the Airwave, run for your life!!!!
so im guessing they play airwave a lot at places like iraqistan and afganistan

I once heard somewhere that Robert Miles called his track "Children" because of his concern for adrenaline-pumped clubbers causing car-wrecks after primary club hours.
Sounds zanny, but I gotta do some google-ing to remember.
'Children' was apparently 'inspired' by the alarming rise in the number of Italian youths getting killed in car-crashes or being run over whilst making their way back from clubs/raves. juventus! say no to drugs!

Although, it's not really obligatory... of course I can get pictures in my head without even checking out the name.

It depends on the song, really.
Really, a song title that pertains to the emotional content of the song in the mind of the producer can be detrimental, because it predisposes the listener to the producer's mindset, when really, music is supposed to be something that everyone interprets differently. So in a way, I support meaningless titles. They identify the song without giving the listener any predisposition.

Indeed. I'm sure cities in those countries are playing airwaves every night.

G&D + Elevation - Athena = Named because track was finished while G&D were in Athens.
G&D + AvB - Zocalo = Named after the coffee shop "Zocalo" in San Leandro, California (about 20 minutes outside of San Francisco) where they would go to grab a cup of coffee while working on the track.
