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.
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.
I am listening to the raw sounds of my own ambient recordings.
What I have recorded so far: Waves at the beach in Calabria, Italy and the nightly concert of frogs and crickets in Sri Lanka https://on.soundcloud.com/Q7iqssGRtnLNQW8ivg
“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.
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.
"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.
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.
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.
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.
My daughter and I have been listening to Jesse Welles' (Under the Power Lines versions) of Autumn and Anything But Me quite a lot. Certain is also fire, but a little too political for my 6-year-old to grasp.
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.
What I hear right now:
Tuomas Holopainen - The Life and Times of Scrooge
(Genre: Celtic, Heavy Metal (don't agree with claim lol), Symphonic Rock, Rock)
Various - 攻殼機動隊 MEGATECH BODY.Cd.,LTD (Genre: Electro, Tech House, Techno)
Various other songs for which I am to lazy to list.
Usually EDM or J-pop/rock.
Some Artists:
(label) Monstercat Uncaged/Silk
Akatsuki Records
Starset
DECO*27
shiey
Edit:
Forgot to mention, I mention, I really like the releases of "Eye" -> https://open.spotify.com/artist/3zqz8Khnygbv4LJia0v0iY (if you dislike spotify, the artist is also on YT)
Specifically "Majestic Sadistic" and "Domestic Drastic"
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.
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.
My earworm. Haggard - Chapter I: Tales of Ithiria. Yes, I recommend it, but it's not their best album. I prefer And Thou Shalt Trust the Seer or Awaking the Centuries.
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!
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.
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.
There's multiple fans loudly humming next to me from various machines. One is constant, one is surging, and there's a few others ij the background. Add to this the vibration of the engine being tested and you have a truly symphonic experience.
It doesn't have a title but it goes like "Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click."
It's my ceiling fan. I recommend it if you're hot.
The window's open and I can hear the birds singing outside. Yes, I recommend it.
John Cage has entered the chat
The song of tinnitus. It sounds like the high pitched squeal of a failing power supply.
All the time or intermittent? One ear or both? Mine started in 2006. I notice it a lot less now, especially if i have any other noise around.
Constant. I’m ok with it.
Faithful companion for 47 years on both ears
Me too. I just woke up with it one day. Life didn't suck enough apparently.
HOME - We're Finally Landing I'd say definitely give it a listen if you like synths.
Feels like somebody just set a speedrun world record.
I like Decay, it's a good song.
All I can hear is the fan on my computer blowing. I don't recommend it.
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.
Hell yeah.
But I dislike the records. I am instead listening to the hourly background tracks.
I've had the 24 hour tracks play while working before, haha.
They are great for background noise (who would have guessed :p)
im rawdogging the ambient sounds of public transport
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.
Sounds like you are in the station and someone whipped out their keyboard.
Neat!
Thank you, this is great 👍
I am listening to the raw sounds of my own ambient recordings.

I use them if I have trouble sleeping
What time of day?

Sisters of Mercy - This Corrosion
Hey now, Hey now, now
¿Alburero, gótico y lemming? Eres una extraña combinación.
Jajajajajajajajajajajajajaja lo gótico y lemming es reciente, lo alburero ya lo traía 😂
Melissa, Mercyful Fate. Yes.

ADDERALL by maezi666 . It’s good but you have to like the nightcore adjacent music.
The Dillinger Escape Plan : One of Us Is the Killer
Yes... if you're into harsh music.
Gary numan, Savage. So good . before that, NIN, Fragile
The magpies outside my window having a lengthy conversation.
"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.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzK3z8MLSpA
That's a fabulous choice from an amazing game
I Spy - Dead Kennedys. Yeah it's a good tune
My friends talk... And only if you like magic the gathering.
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.
NF - Fear
Would only recommend if you're in a bad place in your life... otherwise, it will just depress you.
My phone's detection app says Close to You by Dayglow. I'm on a plane waiting to takeoff. The song is fine, I guess.
Aesop Rock. It's a mess out there.
i don't want to be with you - i hate myself and i want to die.
Awesome band if you like that mid 2000s emo skate punk sound
You've piqued my interest, I gotta check this one out
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.
Bridge of Death - Manowar
Would I recommend it? Uh... how's your sense of irony?
Absolutely.
The Green Fields of France by The Dropkick Murphys
https://youtu.be/zRmJwqVbtQI
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.
that album slaps I've had it on repeat since it came out
Same lol.
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.
My daughter and I have been listening to Jesse Welles' (Under the Power Lines versions) of Autumn and Anything But Me quite a lot. Certain is also fire, but a little too political for my 6-year-old to grasp.
Pelagic by Covet
Absolutely recommend, very chill instrumental math rock.

Ironstone - Death So Grim
I'd recommend them.
Do Hot Girls Like Chords? by Knower
Yes. Sort of Prog/Funk/Jazz. Mind blowing musicianship.
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.
Safari - James Holden remix. If you like electronic music, yes I would recommend it.
Right Now?
It'll do if you like pop-punk.
Rain out the window, 100% recommend
Beni Beni - Niyaz
https://tidal.com/track/2738147/u
Yes, would recommend
One Headlight by the Wallflowers. Absolutely yes - it's one of my favorite 90s songs.
If we're counting what's stuck in my head, it's the live album version of In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins.
HIGHLY recommend either it or the studio version
https://song.link/https://tidal.com/track/102716937/u
video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vKM46KYgnQ
Rain, Rain, Beautiful Rain - Ladysmith Black Mambazo. Do recommend. Maybe not my top pick from them, but pretty good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nNu8RBI5lM
Hemina - What's the Catch
If you like prog, yeah, definitely.
Barry Mann - Who put the bomp? because somebody referenced it in the [email protected] 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?

If you want to audibly groan, I cannot recommend this Siivagunner mash-up enough.
The third movement of Mendelssohn's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra in E Minor, with Hilary Hahn on violin. It's an absolute banger.
My earworm. Haggard - Chapter I: Tales of Ithiria. Yes, I recommend it, but it's not their best album. I prefer And Thou Shalt Trust the Seer or Awaking the Centuries.
sttng opening theme. and yes. because what comes after.
Adam Freeland's 2008 essential mix, you should dig it up and give it a listen
Orange Juice Jones by JPEGMAFIA & Danny Brown
Hell yeah. It's dope.
Atarashii Gakko! - Fly High. Highly recommended.
The sound is like the Phonk version of
Headbanger by Babymetal
and
Iconic by 花冷え (HANABIE)
Ships in the Night by Be bop Deluxe
Edit YouTube link
https://youtu.be/psvhl6SMf_Y
Little Brain - Into the Sun
This one: https://open.audio/library/tracks/434296/
Wouldn't particularly recommend it, though. 😅
You can tell that it's an instrumental track with the vocals missing.
Here's the song with vocals: https://www.joshwoodward.com/song/SymmetryandthePocketofAngels
I certainly like other songs from the guy better, though...
Rick James Super Freak lol
6 feet under by Carter Vail. My wife and I love him. I would happily recommend the song.
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!
battle beast - touch in the night. It's a powermetal song, and yes, i would.
Subterranean Homesick Alien by Radiohead. If you're feeling sort of like one just now. Pay attention to the lyrics
The quiet fan in the bathroom.
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.

Courtney Barnett - Pedestrian At Best
On the way home from work now. I bought her new album and started listening to her older stuff again too: https://youtu.be/o-nr1nNC3ds

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.
Sky´s Falling Down by Hypocrisy. I like it, metal is not for everyone tho I realize
Loverman, Metallica cover of a song by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Absolutely recommend.
Xanadu

Rather the one by RUSH.
Uranus Moon by Levete on soma fm's Drone Zone. it was chill. Now on Emergence by Louigi Verona
Don’t fuck with my money- Penguin prison
It’s alright
There's multiple fans loudly humming next to me from various machines. One is constant, one is surging, and there's a few others ij the background. Add to this the vibration of the engine being tested and you have a truly symphonic experience.
No. lol
It doesn't have a title but it goes like "Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click."
It's my ceiling fan. I recommend it if you're hot.
