SoundTEMP’s Ragnarok Online soundtrack

Can't believe nobody's mentioned Good Riddance from from Hades yet. The sudden peace and calm in the middle of a run is amazing

[-] zerosilversky@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

Chrono Cross

Halo always manages to bring me back from wherever im headed

[-] sopularity_fax@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

Can you briefly explain me what Halo is

[-] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago

You play John Halo, AKA Masterchef and you have to shoot aliens while a sexy-alexa talks sarcastically to you

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Probably Howard Shore's LotR score. Prologue, Concerning Hobbits, A Shortcut to Mushrooms, Khazad-Dûm, The Caverns of Isengard, The Road Goes Ever On, Edoras, Return to Edoras, Eyes of the White Tower... they're all bangers.

(Edit: Can't BELIEVE I forgot "The Ring Goes South!")

I also really like Alan Silvestri's stuff, particularly his Back to the Future work and his Avengers theme.

My wife and I also have this super fun game we play called "is it Gladiator or is it Pirates?" because Klaus Bedelt was Hans Zimmer's protege when they needed a composer for the first Pirates movie, and he heavily borrowed from Zimmer. Anyway, those are good soundtracks, too.

I get to sing in a live performance of the Fellowship soundtrack this fall. The movie will play on a projector, the symphony and chorus will perform the soundtrack.

I’ve done this before for The Two Towers and Return of the King, over a decade ago. This year I get to complete the set!

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

Whoa. I've attended a live performance of a soundtrack with the movie playing overhead (Back to the Future, actually), and it's a fantastic experience. I would imagine actually performing it would be even better.

Are the lyrics on your music written in Sindarin (I mean anglicized Sindarin, not actually Sindarin script), or are they spelled out phonetically?

[-] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 3 points 20 hours ago

Everything is spelled out phonetically, but you can bet I was nerdy enough to correct our chorus master when she said we were singing in Orcish and it was actually Dwarvish.

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 3 points 20 hours ago

Nice. That's a level of nerdery we should all aspire to.

[-] Katana314@lemmy.world 4 points 23 hours ago

Ori and the Blind Forest has a great one.

Others I listen to are emotionally powerful, but not exactly generating simple happiness. Even Ori’s are sometimes dark but other times just beautiful.

[-] kelpie_returns@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

Cowboy Bebop for me. TANK! is obviously great, but it's got so many other bangers in there. Pushing The Sky and What Planet Is This both slap so gd hard

[-] sopularity_fax@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 day ago
[-] kelpie_returns@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Without a doubt, yeah. Beside the goated ost, it's one of the most impacting moments in its mediums history for good reason, and it holds up very surprisingly well compared to the vast majority of its contemporaries. Nothing else hits quite like Bebop, and you, my friend, are in for a real treat with this one.

On days when a spring cleaning or packing and organizing frenzy is needed, the Katamari Damacy sound track is perfect. Nice continuity of themes, but varying tempos and energy help make a sustainable work session.

[-] SnotFlickerman 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Katamari Damacy

It's so infectiously happy and upbeat!

Let's clump up to be a single star in sky...

[-] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 10 points 1 day ago

Recently kpop demon hunters, just because my kids love it and the music is poopy, infectious and inoffensive

In the past, the Lion King was the one for me. Great lyrics and some fun songs.

Pulp fiction did it for me as a teen. I think everyone had the ost on cd. It was also 18s rated, so the movie was less accessible or acceptable for a young teen. The excerpts from scenes were super quotable.

[-] medgremlin@midwest.social 2 points 14 hours ago

I have the KPDH soundtrack going on repeat. (My life is extremely stressful at the moment and I need my dopamine from somewhere)

[-] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 1 points 10 hours ago

Haha, and a song like golden os perfect for that. Up up up

Oh, and daft punks song album for trin was great. The movie was like a giant music video.

Rocky's OST makes me feel many feelings!

[-] meekah@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Kirby - Gourmet Race

[-] Mr_Fish@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

LOTR. Especially the themes for the shire and the rohirrim.

[-] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

The LOTR theme has been ruined for me.

Still brings joy, but still ruined.

[-] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

Hell yes. We really need another Battle for Middle Earth game, the music and vibes were so good.

[-] svcg 3 points 1 day ago

If, God forbid, I ever end up with dementia or whatever, I expect that the music from Green Hill Zone will be the last tune I ever recognise.

[-] callouscomic@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago

  • Untitled Goose Game
  • Kiki's Delivery Service
[-] raparperi11@sopuli.xyz 2 points 17 hours ago

Kiki's Delivery Service is so pleasant, it cheers me up even just thinking about it!

[-] Goldholz 2 points 1 day ago

Anno doesnt chear me up but it is such a nice music to have in the background

[-] PrivateNoob@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

I usually notice some time of "being stuck in the past" sadness if I listen to nostalgia OSTs too much, but probably these:

  • NFS Prostreet, NFS Most Wanted 2005 and 2012
  • Nightrunners
  • Danganronpa 1-2-V3 and Project Eden's Garden
  • Undertale
  • Test Drive Unlimited 2
[-] hono4kami@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago

[-] Maiq@lemy.lol 4 points 1 day ago

Most of the OWR (Old World Radio) stations from the OWR FO4 mod.

But especially SynthstreamFM. Love me some Ice Cream Carl, Trash Can Carla romance and the Pirate Macho Man interruptions!

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Pokémon Blue walking to Vermilion City I think, there is this really nice tune.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

some of the FF ost(not 7) , evangelion(shiros ). the original opening theme of enterprise, not the ugly, "puritanical one"

I will never pick an OST over real music.

Test Drive 5 without a doubt. Wait, that's my angry one.

Guardians Awesome Mix Vol 1, 50 First Dates or Death Proof are my go to cheerful soundtracks.
