The song of tinnitus. It sounds like the high pitched squeal of a failing power supply.

My kids are making me play K.K. Slider tracks from Wii's Animal Crossing City Folk in Brewster's Cafe (I am time traveling to Saturday). Cafe K.K. just played.

Do I recommend it? Yeah, cool cat.

Every so often, I'll listen to this song, because it's just piano + ambient sounds of public transport, and that takes me back to when I used to regularly take the train.

ADDERALL by maezi666 . It’s good but you have to like the nightcore adjacent music.

toomanypancakes@piefed.world · 6 pts · 114d

Mine is Divide and Conquer by Epica, and I would defs recommend it. It's not their best song I think, but it's still good and it's off my favorite album of theirs.

thesohoriots@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 114d

“Taxi to Baltimore Dub” by Scientist. It has an interesting genealogy: Randy Newman’s song “Baltimore” was done as a reggae cover by Nina Simone, then covered again by an actual reggae band called The Tamlins, which then got remixed/dubbed by Scientist. If you listen to Newman’s and then Scientist’s, they’re effectively unrecognizable in relation other than lyrical snippets. I absolutely recommend it.

"Prisoner's Awakening," from the Dead Cells soundtrack, which frequently comes up on my workday playlist. Definitely recommended, that game has an amazing soundtrack. Instrumental, varying from orchestra and acoustic guitar to sometimes electric guitar and synth (or, synth-like?) tracks.

I was listening to... Boston, Longtime / Foreplay. Quite the hard rock canon I suppose. Not my era or genre, but a great song. Going down the rabbit hole with this old band.

dunnyfood@piefed.social · 4 pts · 114d

Memphis LK - Some Kinda Heaven. Pretty solid song if you like the Y2K Electronic/Hopecore type of sound. Fun fact: she is actually the daughter of Paul Kelly, who made legendary songs such as Dumb Things and To Her Door.

Sleep Token - Gethsemane  
Sleep Token - Infinite Baths

Read this right at the end of Gethsemane, so I have two. I recommend both, especially Infinite Baths; and the rest of the album at that.

As The World Begins To Wane - Absent Moon - Chuck Salamone

Its like ballad or opera rock or something and it tells the story of what happens to the characters of Hylics after Hylics 2. I'd only recommend it if you played the Hylics series.

Not The Same Anymore - The Strokes

It's OK, but my personal favorite from the same album (The New Abnormal) is Brooklyn Bridge To Chorus.

Currently I'm listening to Tom Waits' 1983 album Swordfishtrombones. The specific song playing is Frank's Wild Years although it switched to the title track while I was writing this comment.

Waits for sure has some great songs, but he's an excellent album artist and I would recommend Swordfishtrombones. It's one of his best albums and I would whole heartedly recommend it. Mule Variations, Bone Machine, and Rain Dogs are also fantastic albums. Fair warning though, Tom Waits is very polarizing, you either love him or absolutely hate him.

Far Horizons - Skyrim Soundtrack. And yes, it's simultaneously chill and makes me want to go stand on top of a mountain and gaze into the distance moodily.

I have a collection of video game soundtracks that I keep running at a quiet volume pretty much 24-7 for my cats because they have separation anxiety and I'm gone a lot. Skyrim, Oblivion, all 3 Witcher games, Stardew Valley, Terraria, Baldurs Gate 3, a couple of the Assassins Creed games, and a couple others are in there. Currently I have over 1000 songs in my main playlist that I run, but I have way more soundtracks that I don't have in that playlist.

Barry Mann - Who put the bomp? because somebody referenced it in the !tenforward@lemmy.world thread about James R. Kirk's middle name.

Kinda fun as far as '50s pop goes, I guess.


Edit: Now I'm about to go listen to "video killed the radio star" because I double-checked the tenforward link was correct and found a thread referencing that in there too. Why is it unusually musical tonight?


Edit 2: it is now the next morning, and "Who Put The Bomp?" remains stuck in my head. Send help.

R.E.M. - Ages of You. It came up in random rotation of ~5000 MP3s I have on my phone. Great song. Reminds me of being young. I used to belt it out in the car driving around as a teenager. It's on Dead Letter Office which is a collection of b-sides they released in the mid-late 80s.

Deathwatch (Warhammer 40,000) by Jared Moreno Luna

7/10. It was great background music while playing Satisfactory, but now that I'm actually focusing on it, it's pretty repetitive. Playlist started with Starcraft music - also a pretty good match for Satisfactory!

AceFuzzLord@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 114d

I don't have the album link, but I got the individual link to the song I was listening to while I found thus question: Last Words by nostraightanswer. It's part of their Specters album, which I have on CD and LOVE, so yes I recommend it. This song happens to be about the fear of others passing away.

It's my maybe 4th favorite in that album behind Empty ( about depression ), Lies In Their Blood ( school shootings ) and Face to Face ( dealing with a stalker ). It's a pretty serious album that manages not to be super dreary throughout the whole thing. Would recommend.
