Playlists
Posted: Thu Jul 25, 2013 11:06 am
This is a topic that doesn't quite know what it is. I'm not even sure where it should go, but a general discussion sounds safe enough.
So anyway, I like making playlists for different moods (I'm sure this is a common enough occurence) but recently I feel like I've been stuck in a rut with my music. If anyone feels they'd like to offer me some new listening experiences to add to my current favourite playlists, please do so! (Maybe check the music I've listed first, to see if we have similar tastes. )
And, should anyone else want to swap around their favourite picks for favourite playlists, this would be as good a place as any, I guess. I'd be interested in hearing something different!
Chilled out music:
Joao Gilberto; Oscar Castro-Neves; Carla Bruni; a little bit of Hans Zimmer; Tomohito Nishiura (Moment Of Rest from Professor Layton series, End Theme from Professor Layton series); Thomas Newman (Finding Nemo and WALL.E soundtracks)
Upbeat, 'tech' sounding music (which is great inspiration for programming):
A lot of Portal, Half-Life, and other Valve stuff; Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross (The Social Network soundtrack); Some tracks from GB games Link's Awakening, Pokemon Red
Sad music:
Ludovico Einaudi; Alexandre Desplant; Philip Glass; Howard Shore (Gollum's Song from the Two Tower's anyone? Amazing.) Also more Portal (Exile Vilify T_T )
Get Creative Inspiration from Fantasy Worlds music:
Almost entirely consisting of Howard Shore, Koji Kondo (Legend of Zelda) and Jeremy Soule (Morrowind), with some Ludovico Einaudi
Get Stuff Done music:
Deadmau5; Skrillex; David Guetta; Basto; Macklemore; other assorted popular artists who produce loud, rhythmic and repetitive songs that make you get stuff done.
Oh, I'm on Grooveshark, that's where I do most of my listening. Does anyone else like this site?
