Music selections for different games
Posted: Sat Jun 22, 2019 9:35 pm
After playing games my entire life, only recently have I realized just h1ow much an appropriate song (not so much thematically, more in a vibe? sorta way) can improve a game experience, not just for enjoyments sake but I've found in certain contexts with certain songs I can achieve that 'Zen' state much easier. That state of being where you are so completely in the zone that you are achieving the maximum performance possible given your time/effort involved. I now taylor make playlists for pretty much every game that it feels appropriate (plenty of games have perfect soundtracks that encourage that zen state, Olli Olli is a great example).
Here are some songs I've found to be wonderful for Better Than Wolves (not much zen state required for this but they help to not panic and fit the feel)
Giovanni Sollima - Hell pt 1
Neil Young - Dead Man Theme (thank-you rockstar for helping introduce an awesome muso to a generation)
Alice Coltrane Turiya and Ramakrishna
Charles Mingus - Moanin'
Various others that I will add on when I remember my YT deets.
Was curious what music people play in certain games, specifically Better Than Wolves and if we have any Elite:Dangerous guys what their go-to's were.
