science fictiony music in here

incandenza_ [Edit] [Delete] 69 replies 02:16 March 7th, 2013

I'm listening to 'Lunatic Harness' by µ-ziq, which as we all know is well science fictiony:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoVko6wozew

real aliens, proper biomechs with lazer cannons. some proper space station-based carnage, right there.

I think we'd all much rather be space adventurers, infiltrating murky interstellar trade freighters to lazer-hussle some freak from the radioactive
wastelands of some backwater twat planet for the energy crystal it stole from our ship.

what would soundtrack your gritty, neon space travails, though?

And now, a hardcore band's take on alien abduction:

That song is how I learned about Whitley Strieber's Communion.

Something ultra-lounge-y

That retro, essentially backward/forward looking music would put a smile on my face while I'm careening through the cosmos.

Twinsistermoon's last album bogyrealm vessells was very sci fi themed in track list and artwork and probably lyrics if I could make them out

      I saw him live last year at a festival he was awsome. Seen him way back as Jamie Vex'd too when he was playing more dubstep and colourful synth stuff alongside the hip-hop, that was so damn good. He's a legend.

synths are pretty essential for spacey music, I guess. vocals give it a floating in a spacesuit, breathing slowly as you run out of oxygen kind of vibe.

The album is fantastic, the film is very trippy. Sun Ra returns to earth to take the black people to Jupiter.

      he has this live trombone thing going on which is kinda fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mubv1Mezrc8 I dunno I can't remember much more about his other albums they didn't hit me like Reeling Skullways. He has soem singles that are on that kind of tip tho: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1J7_BxBeLw / https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RleRdbISDQ they're on more of a rave tip than a spacerave tip.

    - It could be like Wall-E
      
      A malfunctioning wikipedia bot from the 90s is stumbling around a forgoten planet sifting through garbage to a soundtrack of Groove Armada (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-uztVX6QFQ). Gets beamed up onto a neon party ship from the future, gets so confused by the sights and sounds, accidently spills a drink on the console for the hyperspace uplink copasitor and we get flung thru space so quick that we all disintergrate and die to the sound of Rustie Zig Zag.
