Anon shares his taste in music

There are people that seriously think like this
- How does someone's entire conception of video games still involve quarters in (after) 2023. Thats honestly insane to me. Like how do you let that person create any type of art, let alone a tv show based off of a video game, if they have that little awareness of the world around them. Like ehst did this guy do before this. "We want you to make a commercial for our new operating system. 'Oh computers, thats easy. Most computers are pretty simple. You feed in a punch card and you can make the computer do things. MacOS XV changed all that, it doesnt even need punch cards.'"'
  
  It's boomer cringe manifest.

A lot of games have great music. Instead of calling it video game music, which absolutely invites people to say stupid shit, just say you generally listen to atmospheric soundtracks.
Growing up in small town east Texas taught me to create euphemisms for all kinds of fun shit.
- "Atmospheric soundtracks" might make you sound like a jackwad, especially if it is further clarified that you're talking about video game music
  
  Whenever I come up with euphemisms like this, I'm openly honest about the reason and this has done me a lot of good.
  "I call it this because people tend to react this way to the normal phrase, but that view isn't accurate to my experience"

That must mean anon also listens to Luigi
- We pray to Luigi
  
  Hallowed be thy name. 🙏🏻

Gonna play this in honor of anon.
- And this

Video game music fucks. I have the entire Banjo Kazooie soundtrack and the Diddy king racing sound track on my main playlist. Even a couple songs from Zelda, star fox and golden eye.
Yes the N64 was my first console how did you know?
- Every day my grey hairs get greyer. I was already in my gaming prime by the time N64 came around. A seasoned veteran of the gaming world. Having had saved the princess in multiple series, in multiple games, in mjltiple consoles, for over 10 years by that point......
  Now the kids ask if I got "Rizz". No. I know not of this Rizz.....what I do have is a very particular set of skills. Skills I have developed over a prolonged career. Skills that make me a nightmare for punks like you. If you put the controller down now, that will be the end of it. I will not pursue you. If you don't, I will look for you, I WILL find you, and I'll plug my toys r us gold exclusive N64 controller into port 2, I will pick Jaws, insist you pick oddjob, and still wipe the floor with you!
  Hail to the king, baby!!! Oh, sorry, wrong N64 shooting game.
- I have the Jet Set Radio, Jet Set Radio Future, and Bombrush Cyberfunk soundtracks in regular rotation. If only I still had knees so I could rollerblade...
  
  Would you stop playing with that radio of yours, I'm trying to get to sleep!
  Another one I love is the Space Channel 5 music, oh and Parappa the Rapper.
  
  Don't worry, I'm a gen z who can rollerblade but wants to get better and know cool tricks and shit because I love those game OSTs and wanna pretend I'm one of the characters, despite never having played them (maybe one day I'll bootleg the JSR games). I also wanna learn how to skateboard to em. I'll skate in your honor.
  I have fucked up loose ankles tho so we'll see how far I get before I wipeout for the final time
- NFS:MW radio playing on my headphones 24/7.
  
  Need For Speed: Modern Warfare?

sister starts humming the Super Mario overworld theme

- The rare good ending. Not seen very often on greentexts

It's really ironic that a lot of people equate game soundtracks with some sort of "kid music" or something that isn't "real music".
Most of UT2004's OST could be used on a rave and nobody would know any better.
- Try being into board games. "Oh like Monopoly" NO NOT LIKE A 100 YEAR OLD GAME INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED NOT TO BE FUN AS A CRITICISM OF CAPITALISM. There have been new board games made in the last century and they're actually fun.
  
  I wish Catan was the go-to boardgame instead of Monopoly.
  
  I'm already there 😅
  Even worse, the Brazilian version, Banco Imobiliário, which is what "everyone played" here, was an even worse game than Monopoly.
- UT music made me remind that electronic music can be good in the times when my main exposure for such music were really bad trance songs, but which had (awful) Hungarian lyrics, thus was a "must listen to" in my country.
- I use doom OST to work out.
  
  The doom OST are absolute bangers. Can't argue with that.
  
  Doom 2016, or Doom dot matrix style?
- **Marty O'Donnell has entered the chat
- There's this music genre in Brazil called funk (different to the US funk from the 70), and they're pretty experimental on what they mix in and they use a lot of chip tune and other video games songs mixed. One of those DJs (DJ Bassan) regularly mix in donkey Kong or Chrono Trigger OST in the middle of her sets.
- I’d personally throw the Frostpunk OST in their face and see how they react.
  Especially The City Must Survive.

  This song is, and always will be a massive banger.

Meh just own it.. Fuck yeah I listen to Mario, have you ever heard the Super Mario Bros. 2 music? Shit is off the chain.
- There's a reason it's won game of the year so many years in a row.

Anon's favourite music genre:

I mean, it is a good zing, mate. sometimes, ya just have to eat shit.
- Fuck that. This lil bitch is talking shit about Koji Kondo. I won't stand for that bullshit. Motherfucker needs to get stomped on Mario-style.
- Next time just come out with that: "mostly the Mario theme over and over."

Hey now the mario soundtrack is a banger

Na na~ nanananana~ na~ na~ na, Katamari Damashii
- If you started with the beatboxed version at that family table, I would back you up with the bzzchek budda bucheck sounds. Greentext's family doesn't know the classics.
  
  someone brings out a fucking trumpet from under the table
  everyone else starts chirping, doo doodo do doo doo!
  neighbour leans in the window and starts making deep Jubbajubbadzabajzaba sounds
  -Hey!-

"Actually I prefer the Donkey Kong Country 1-3 OSTs."

I mean, have they heard Mario Odyssey's music? It's really good!

Ok but Mario slaps so I wouldn’t be offended at all if someone suggested that. Dire Dire Docks, Gusty Garden Galaxy, Super Mario Bros 3 athletic theme? Yes please
- Throw Steam Gardens on there too.
  
  Yes steam gardens is great. Such a funky tune!

Detroit: Become Human theme music make me have an existential crisis

Literally have multiple playlists that are video games soundtracks. One is just all of the songs, others are game specific. Cyberpunk, Warframe, and Fallout have some of the best music imo

Sometimes when it’s quiet and I get a moment to sit, ponder, and allow myself to be bored, I’ll hear either The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time title theme song or, if I’m feeling energised, I’ll hear the opening theme for a new game start in Super Mario 64 (where Lakitu is flying around with the camera and Mario jumps out of the warp pipe).
- Ocarina of Time soundtrack lives in my head rent free too. For me, its usually Lost Woods, everyone who played remembers the tune even if they don't know the name.

An(n)ons favourite song: https://youtu.be/xvT2h0DRfX0

Mega Man 2 OST is an incredible work of art.

I usually say "harder styles of techno" because most people don't know what the hell Hardtekk, gabber, hardcore, Speedcore and Extratone are. Especially Extratone gets quite a lot of undeserved hate. Most people shit on it without even knowing what it is and that it isn't monotone beeping. Melodic Extratone is absolutely great and it uses techniques that you can't do with other genres.
- I like gabber but don't know some of the others, I'll have to look them up, thanks!
  
  Hardtekk is a genre quite popular in Germany. Its know for having not much melodies, being repetitive and using a lot of distortion so that everything sounds a bit cheap. It is also quite popular in combination with German rap.
  Speedcore is techno with 400+ bpm and Extratone is everything above 3600 BPM. This is The Rate at which the beats turn into a single tone and you can't hear the single beats.
  Hardcore is the evolution of Gabber with harder kicks and a usually darker theme. Nowadays hardcore is heavily influenced by Uptempo. This is why I prefer the old school hardcore over the newer stuff (Uptempo is cool, but I want to listen to hardcore but Uptempo light).
  Another genre I like to listen to is terrorcore which is insanely brutal underground hardcore.
  Examples for Hardtekk:

  Examples for Melodic Extratone:
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AH4khgBBpY
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HaK_MR0KXg
  Examples for Extratone:
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkivY3wwQHc (this one is technically Splittercore, but it does has good Extratone elements)
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i85jXEhukz8 (the end is Extratone)
  Examples for speedcore in general:
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOU4WDMchMY (check out the part starting at 4:20 that shit is sick)

  Speedcore and Extratone are devinetively nothing that's gonna become mainstream, but it devinetively doesnt deserves the hate it gets.

My 2yo goes fucking nuts when Bobomb battle field plays, particularly the Hang onto your Hat remix album. Whole family dancing, kids spinning around, good times had by all.

damn, they should just listen to the Nier Automata and weep silently
- Heck yeah. I’ve been going through a phase where I’m rotating listening to the NieR:Automata and Persona 5 Royal soundtracks.

Skyrim and Fallout 3 soundtracks are masterpieces that take me out of the mundane existence of my job. There is so much good music composed for video games.

Relatable, I listen to political and historical music and nobody takes me seriously. Sadly people dont appreciate good music :c
(Einheitsfrontlied is beautiful, people just also dont appreciate German music)

Hop on Yoshi and the drums kick in

proceeds to AI generate a deahtmetal version of smb3 and cranks it on the family "HIFI"

Okay but if you literally only listen to video game soundtracks at least try a little

Ratchet & Clank tracks absolutely fuck

Castlevania has some killer tracks
https://youtu.be/gK-OSTjiVWw

Mario Bros. 3 world 7 theme 10 hours.
stares

Same bro, game OST (Especially Touhou,Tf2,Halflife and Portal) are the shit.

Well, the power metal rendition of the mario theme by Powerglove does slap.

that's why I always say "idk"

This one?
- 7 years ago! What the heck
  
  We are farther in time from the release of Odyssey than the release of Odyssey was from the release of Galaxy 2.

  More likely it's texas after all

Anon should have kept his rifle by his side

Both Red Dead Redemption and RDR2 have some great music.

Game freak for all the bad execution they do, have killer soundtracks

Surviving Mars: Free Earth Radio
I'll listen to that on eternal repeat through a full day of work.
- Paradox games never miss with the music. Stellaris is also amazing.

Me listening to a 10hr loop of the SMB2 overworld theme
"No!"

Naah, I will just start playing The only they fear is you.

I did not need this meme interrupting me in the middle of athletic.mp3
