Music

[Anuarie]

When you play games (Smutty or mainstream) do you listen to music? If so, what genre?


I tend to listen to hard rock, Hip hop, or electronic.

 

[Kesil]

a) It depends. b) It depends.


P.S. I am fairly sure it could have been considered as necromancy, but, given such generic thread title, I would have sworn that it was a duplicate of this thread.

Well shit, must have goofed with my quick search in some way. Thanks for the heads up.

 

[Kesil]

You're welcome. Not that it matters now, but still... I searched for "Music" in content titles only. Hope this helps!


I tend to enjoy video game soundtracks (factoid: I am currently listening to one as I type), but I mute them at times to play my own music.

One does not make statements like that without providing examples. So please do.

 

[Kesil]

Are you inquiring about my factoid, good sir? If so, I shall provide a most insighful link, for I feel devastated when released soundtracks won't include each ingame track.


*Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage (soundtrack rip): a roughly complete collection of each song used in the first Berserk game, which was released for Dreamcast.

Everything pretty much from dub like deadmouse & ford to jazz like frank Sinatra 

 

[Galvani]

I only listen to music when playing a game if I don't need the game's native audio, so when the game doesn't have any sound and/or doesn't require a great deal of focus.
The genre depends on my mood, could be anything from Dark Cabaret to Synthwave.

 

[NEET-Hime]

I'm not complicated.

 

[Mei97]

I'm all over place when I listen to music and game, but my top choices are-


1. Metal (5FDP, Black Sabbath, Slipknot)


2. Steampunnk (Steam powered giraffe, Cog is dead)


3. Classical (Mozart)


4. Dubstep (knife party, skrillex)


5. Fantasy (Gaelic, Celtic)

Nice list, yoinked some names for research purposes. However shouldn't #5 be 'Ethnic' instead of Fantasy? Pretty sure Gaelic and Celtic people haven't been made up by some author.

Have you tried Witcher 3 soundtrack? It can be a great gateway drug for Eastern European folk music. And Folk is the proper name for the genre, so I've derped myself.

I have binged listened to witcher 3, dragon age i, and skyrim music on a number of occasions. All are amazing.

Seeing how this thread is around, I'd like to take a chance to grieve for Kōji Wada. He made my life happier.

Oh shit, he died? Well that sucks, I remember him from from my childhood watching Digimon. 


Well uh, Nujabe's anyone?

 

[Kesil]

Yes, he did. He passed away from cancer. Just like Origa (okay, I'm cheating here-she was Russian). Just like Satoshi Kon. Almost like Satoru Iwata. Can't recall the cause of Nujabes' death, though, but it feels terrible to see so many talented Japan (a country with a high life expectancy)-based people die when they're in their prime.

 

[Corivas]

Reminds me of Monty Oum (Not a music artist, but the music featured in Red vs Blue and RWBY were good so it counts). Still sad about him dying.

 

[Woider]

Recently, I've been playing a lot of Pennywise whilst gaming. Generally, my taste in music is Metal (Thrash, Folk, Power and Industrial) and Punk (Hardcore or Skate)

 

[dumbfrogposter]

I use last.fm, do you guys have a last.fm? Let's share our last.fm

 

[Kesil]

I do use Last. fm. Sadly, I haven't scrobbled anything interesting lately. I miss their radio stations, even if you could guess which artists you'd get if you kept on playing a certain station.

 

[PyrateHyena]

Currently I'm listening to Björk. Other genres include Metal (especially Rob Zombie, Murderdolls, Iced Earth and Hypocrisy), german Extremecore (Doomlord 666, Catcore), german EBM (Einstürzende Neubauten, Winterstahl, Schwefel, Unter Null), EBM in general (especially Psychic TV), J-Gabber (Dj Sharpnel and the like), Punk (Sex Pistols... duh), german Punk (WIZO, Heiter bis wolkig and Normahl) and a lot of 80s stuff that I tend to call 80s Underground Pop, although it's mostly just called New Wave (The Stranglers, Joy Division, The Sisters of Mercy, The Psychedelic Furs, Blondie and so on). Pretty much the same stuff that I hear all day long. Oh and german "Kommerzpunk" (Die Ärzte) of course.
