Post up some music recs. with a link to them, preferably. Can include a reason if you want.

This thread can also double as a discussion thread for music in general.

Current recommendations: Honey I'm Home by GHOST (Vocaloid).
I just think it's neat.

[Francisco]

Ooooh, new music thread.

I'm going to recommend Young Animal by Alex Unknown both because it's a nice album and because he's nice and deserves it. It's only his second album but it's definitely an improvement over the first. It has a nice mix of tracks, he's mentioned inspiration from Brockhampton so I'm not surprised they vary so widely. I think you'd like it if you have a fairly open mind when it comes to genre.

The Wolf, by Siamés. Fucking amazing animation. Also, relatable. Too relatable.

This cover of Honey I'm Home by nostraightanswer is lovely. Did you know that he's the voice provider for DEX?

打首獄門同好会 (Uchikubi Gokumon Doukoukai) - I don' t wanna get out of futon A novelty meme song, but the struggles of leaving a warm bed is something anyone can resonate with. Simple but succinct lyrics, wonderfully surprising chorus, and cute animation. 1:04-1:07 is my favorite anime transformation.

Modest Mouse - Sugar Boats. Not my usual genre of music, but I dropped everything when I heard "This rock of ours is just some big mistake, And we will never know just where we go." Tons of great lines. It's fantastically introspective.

The Japanese House - Saw You In A Dream. Good weed song. Never smoked, but it has gotta sound like this.

OH NO I FORGOT THE FUTON SONG EXISTED

[bluebird]

glad i was able to reintroduce it 🤘😌🤘🎸🎸

[Espy]

1.) Cathedrals of Mourning -- Belzebubs

Great animation, even if the music's not... to everyone's liking.

2.) Mine, Windbag, Mine -- Bastion OST

...So, I generally like soundtracks with a bit of an... industrial feel to them? Steel Me from the Ragnarok Online OST also fits; there's a reason why these two tracks are in a playlist I've labeled "Steel City". (Also, Mine, Windbag, Mine starts picking up at around 2:13.)

3.) Yuve Yuve Yu

Er... well. ...Yeah. Also, arrow guitar.

4.) Captain War -- Top Floor Taivers

I love things that are sea-related, okay? ALSO, ELECTRIC HARP.

5.) Sirona -- Miracle of Sound

Celtic Metal. 'Nuff said.

6.) Takao -- Chthonic

So, erm, I like this one for personal reasons. History of Taiwan and all that. Also holy fuck it's in Taiwanese Hokkien.

7.) Bergentrückung + ASGORE

If you thought Undertale wasn't going to make it on here, you don't don't know me well enough. Favorite track (or, two tracks) in the entire game.

8.) Dragon Age Origins Main Theme, and I Am The One

I have a lot of feelings about these two tracks.

9.) Zegarmistrz Światła Purpurowy -- Tadeusz Woźniak

11-bit Studios used this in one of the trailers for This War Of Mine, and, well... I have a lot of feelings about THAT game. Damn good game. Highly recommend when you're not depressed.

10.) The Five-Floor Goodbye

Speaking of good games, Void, I think you'd like this one. It's called Gunpoint. Hell of a soundtrack.

[Stabbsworth]

i'd also suggest Undertale from the Undertale OST. it's a nice song. and Heartbreak for particularly engaging writing or doodling, y'know?

[Espy]

Haha, you use Heartbreak, I use ASGORE.

[Stabbsworth]

asgore is a partial remix of heartbreak, which is made even sadder because of leitmotifs.

also, i'm just going to recommend the entirety of the undertale soundtrack here, because it's genuinely decent.

[Espy]

I used a lot of the boss themes back when I had time to go to the gym. Especially Undyne’s. Because that just pushes me to sprint another half a mile.

[Espy]

Eternal Return -- Dragon's Dogma OST

Gods, I'd forgotten about this song.

The Ballad of Billy the Kid - Billy Joel
<u< I remembered it existed..
