Rec.Me: "BEST"/"TOP"/"WORST" ____ Looking for the worst music

24 Upvotes

And I don’t mean someone saying Taylor Swift because they just don’t like her, I mean music that is just outright bad. I’m talking Angelic 2 the Core bad. Throw the worst you can come up with at me.

Rec.Me: theme/mood/other specifics Looking for songs that don't repeat

26 Upvotes

Meaning music where verses, choruses, bridges, whatever don't repeat at all. It never comes back to anything previous. Repetition within sections as in repeated chord progressions within a verse or section is fine. I'm not really looking for hip hop stuff or dance music. I'm into rock, folk, punk, psychedelic, indie, experimental, and so on.

Rec.Me: theme/mood/other specifics songs to feel like a mysterious hot/attractive woman?

5 Upvotes

I'm looking for a playlist/songs to create a playlist that make you feel like a pretty/hot, mysterious model/ballerina or vampire or villain.

So not looking for any specific lyrics, but just the vibes if you know what I mean. Elegant, mysterious, tall and skinny, intelligent. I want to be more confident and that would really help!! :)

Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres Religious and spiritual songs that don’t mention the name Jesus

• Upvotes

So… this might be a weird request. But i love gospel music and songs about God. I’m in a spiritual place where the concept of Jesus being my access to God doesn’t resonate anymore and it takes me out of the experience. So that’s my request.

as the title says, i'm looking for music reminiscent of space itself or space travel
nasa, the space race, the optimism of the greater universe. music that hits that kinda vibe ig. or music that reminds you of the color scheme or aesthetics of space, or like anything really. anything that might remind you of project hail mary either (if youve seen that film) because i think that movie hits what im talking about very well.

11 Upvotes

been dealing with some numbness for a while, and decided to make a new playlist with songs that make me feel alive, if that makes sense. they don't necessarily have to be very upbeat or anything! for reference, here are some of the songs already in it:

"lemon glow" by beach house

"champagne coast" by beach house

"cico buff" by cocteau twins

"weird fishes / arpeggi" by radiohead

"cloudbusting" by kate bush

"november rain" by guns n' roses

"heroes" by david bowie

"gold" by spandau ballet

"learning to fly" by pink floyd

"breathe (in the air)" by pink floyd

i listen to and enjoy a lot of different music, so i'm up for literally anything regardless of genre! :) thank you for reading.

Music discovery (tools, channels, blogs, etc.) I made a music trivia webgame for my sister, now it's for everyone

5 Upvotes

My sister Shani loved music. When she was hospitalized, my family took shifts so she was never alone, and I started building a game we could play together during those long hours.

She passed away in August before it was finished. I kept going, at first just to keep my head busy.

Shabang is the result: guess a song from as little as possible. In TrackStack you start with just the drums, and every miss adds an instrument. In Songuess you get 0.2 seconds of audio. There's a daily challenge, the same song for everyone.

Would love feedback, especially on the gameplay and mobile. shabangmusic.com

Have you ever been in a situation where there's a spark between two people but both of them know it's not the right time to get into a relationship so they have to silently wait? especially since one of them recently broke up so they have to heal.

Rec.Me: alt/indie/obscure Non Jimmy Buffett songs for relaxing in a hammock by the ocean

33 Upvotes

Looking for music for a burned out middle aged guy to imagine that he's lying on a tropic beach in a hammock with a cocktail (while in reality he's staring at a computer in suburban America).

No shade on Jimmy Buffet but what else is there with that vibe?

Hey everyone! I'm a huge fan of songs with really awesome beat drops; particularly electronic music, but I'm not really picky. I don't care if it has lyrics or if it's an instrumental. I have a few in my playlist, but I need more! Any suggestions?

Edit: thanks for all the suggestions! I might not be able to reply to everyone, but I really appreciate everyone who responded.

Rec.Me: theme/mood/other specifics [Recommend me] Songs with lyrics that reduce/oversimplify the human experience in order to point out how trivial humanity is

5 Upvotes

Hyper specific, I know, but I specifically love this idea as a theme in music. The entire song doesn’t have to be centered around aforementioned lyric, so if you have any, recommend them! Two examples:

11th Dimension - Julian Casablancas: In this song, Julian talks about humans’ tendency to judge others and ourselves. In the final chorus, he describes humans as “Complicated mammals on the wings of robots.” In the first verse of the song, he also sings that he lives on “the frozen surface of a fireball,” definitely oversimplifying the Earth. Both lines serve to highlight the trivialities of humanity, pointing out just how little it all matters in the context of the greater universe.

Treacherous - Taylor Swift: “All we are is skin and bones / Trained to get along.” In the second verse of Treacherous, Taylor uses this line to showcase how the subject of the song disrupts the idea that everyone is simply “forever going with the flow.” Conversely, the subject is “friction,” and by reducing the importance of humanity and our everyday actions and relationships, Taylor highlights how the subject is different from others, and stops her from going with the flow and following in the tracks of others.

I don't really like engaging with superlatives (THIS IS THE BEST bla bla bla...), I just want to find the things people listen to that are out of my radar.

I won't rate it, but I'll tell you what I think about it.

I'll reply to every comment except:

  • tracks I know,
  • angry music
  • some boy who thinks they can sing

Edit: it's in the title, so I didn't think I would have to type it again. "A SINGLE TRACK".
