God forbid I want to listen to shit I like while I’m giving my friends a lift
Metal and sea shanties with Alestorm
Also Stormseeker
sea shanties and gregorian chants are the fedoras of music genres
Removed by mod
actually, fair enough
Yeah, I just put my whole collection on shuffle and have come to appreciate the simplicity of that.
I use this web music player at home, which only supports shuffle and because it’s a web thing, I can’t either use keyboard shortcuts to skip songs (without switching to that window).
And I actually like that I can’t distract myself with selecting just the right music. Because if I don’t distract myself and just get into coding or whatever, I’ll quickly stop noticing what precise music is playing.Mind if I get a link to some of the stuff you listen to? Always down to try new things. Giggidy
So this guy’s meme actually hits pretty close to my music tastes somehow lmao. I think it’s got to be because I grew up with Linkin Park and halo. So that set my path into metal, electronic, and liking chants/shanties. My tastes have grown and changed but generally the meme is right lol.
Metal
Good intro metal bands of various subgenres (featuring catchy clean vocal parts frequently)

Electronic
Currently I listen to a lot of retro EDM. Synth wave specifically. It’s like modern EDM writing a lover letter to the 80s we all see in stranger things. Which, unironically I love the intro to that show. Music like the Weeknds blinding lights fits under this umbrella of genres (https://youtu.be/4NRXx6U8ABQ).

Shout-out to Phonk as a genre too. It’s great for studying or background for working
For sea shanties, the assassin’s creed rogue and ac black flag soundtrack has great versions or real shanties.
Also look up the dreadnaughts
They are polka and shanties. It’s awesome.
The longest John’s are another sea shanty / folk song band that rules.
And the monk chants for me really is just the halo menu music lol. It’s the best game music I’ve ever heard.
I would just click on this stuff and see if you like anything. There’s so much more to these genres than what I’m posting.
Disclaimer: This is just a taste and I just picked some stuff quickly and randomly
Inb4 “sleep token isn’t metal”

Sea shanties just hit different, especially when sung by native speakers.
No mention of Dwarven metal yet?
So, like… Sleep Token?
No joke though, this is incredible: https://youtu.be/JJpFTUP6fIo
In my day to day playlist I have mostly brutal metal and jazz, with some '90s British trip-hop, Romanian traditional music & hip hop fusion, a bit of manouche, 2000s alternative and '90s grunge here and there…
That’s when I work or work out.
The Diablo or Witcher OSTs are for when I read or do my taxes.
Normal activities: normal music
Taxes: boss music
Add Mongolian Throat singing and Tibetan chanting to that list.
my favourite “genre” of music is happyish songs about death
examples:
and also all the songs that give me specifically the same vibe. my friends are often confused
Let’s not forget our modern folk artist!
I don’t like music in major-key but make an exception for Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival, who specifically talked about how he made the juxtaposition between upbeat music and lyrics about the apocalypse and doom a deliberate choice and made one of the all-time classic songs.
Not a ‘revival hymn’, but more of a ‘survival hymn’. (As introduced one time by the artist.)
oh that one scratches the itch yes, perfect, thank you!
I can’t click those right now, but very much look forward to them. Have one of my favorites:
Mix in some rap, old school country, jazz, and dubstep with that group and you have an exact replica of one of my playlists
I want an artist that combines all four of that into an album, even if by techno it might mean “just some form of electronic music, and not necessarily techno”.
Hmmm…
Go to a science fiction convention. Seriously. There’s some wild live music. I wouldn’t be surprised if you heard it there.
I used to go to several in the Northeast US, like Arisia, Lunacon, Philcon, Boscone. Of course yor best bet would be WorldCon.
Gregorian Death Chanting Shanties - now in Techno!
See if Heilung does it for you. It’s light on the sea shanties, but covers the rest pretty well. Check out their live performance videos on YouTube too, the stage show is arguably the best part.
Yeah I’m into indie hip hop and medieval beekeepers
If you dont mind French language songs:
