I'm usually a heavy sleeper against classic alarm sounds, weird enough, very wary against footsteps, and mouse clicks. But anyways, that's why I usually had the, uh, as title suggests, "wake-proof" alarm soundtracks usually. Here's my list:

  1. Korn - Get Up! ft. Skrillex @ 0:14 (Got used to it after few months and slept through it)
  2. Krewella - Calm Down (SKAN Remix) @ 0:07 (Not very effective, several times slept through it)
  3. AWOLNATION - Run (B52 Remix) @ 0:14 (Been using this for more than a year now, but losing it's effect nowadays)
  4. The Quick Brown Fox - The Big Black @ 0:07 (Updated)
  5. goreshit - MATZcore @ 0:05 (Updated)
  6. Pillar Men Theme - Awaken (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure)

So I'm wondering how does SteamGifts wake up everyday?

The usual way

On rare occasions I use high pitched noises and put alarm clock/phone in a walking distance

It's not a soundtrack but I used to hook up a lamp in my bedroom to a timer and point the spot at my pillow. Together with a regular alarm that works pretty well.

My fool proof system:

  • 6:55 - My alarm clock radio plays
  • 6:55:01 - I turn it off without actually waking up
  • 7:05 - My wife starts telling me that I have to get up
  • 7:25 - After being told every 5 minutes with increased insistance, I finally get my ass out of bed

I have none. I'll usually just go back to sleep for half hour-1 hour even after getting up to turn my cell phone alarm off.

I wish I could stay asleep. :(

Unless I get really drunk the night before I am always up at sparrow fart. As soon as the sun begins to poke his noggin over the horizon, I begin to stir. Even the slightest noise will wake me up.

Pink Floyd - Marooned
Don't know how, I always hear this since the first notes.
But now I have a different problem: when I hear this on the radio, during the day, I have the bad feeling that I should wake up, even if I'm already up of course! XD

A classic

I've also used this, the way the intro builds up provides multiple steps to jolt you awake.

Classic metal won't wake me up, since I've once been here before.

I used to have a custom sound from L4D, from The Witch. My wife hated it, hahahahaha!
But my biggest issue isn't not waking up, it's switching off the alarm before I've properly woken up and going back to sleep again before my befuddled brain can get me going. So I got an alarm which I can't turn off without a little effort, so I have to wake up to get it off, that way I don't go back to sleep. And it has a variable snoozetime-setting so I can snooze 5 min first time, then it's only 4 min, then 3, then 2, then it rings every minute until I get up. Brilliant.
Try it out, Alarm Clock Extreme (Google Play).

Works great, until... your half-asleep self figure out the alarm can be defused by rebooting your phone

I suck at waking up early; no matter how long I sleep... I can sleep like 2-4 hours and wake up perfectly in the night, but not sleep 12 hours and wake up at 7AM.

When younger I tried to waking up to music I like, which only made me sleep happier. Then I used FM radio on timer with some foreign station half tuned in so half was static, that very loudly woke me up instantly.

But here's something that's awesome for waking up the neighbors at 5:00 after a night out drinking.

This is a bad idea:

Thought it would be a slow calm wake up as it's continuously rising -> 1 hour later zZZZ
