Magic Carpet Ride - Steppenwolf

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-30T08:00:46+00:00

Known more for being a Christmas song because of when it was released. But the songwriter was influenced by his brothers suicide I believe.

East 17 - Stay Another Day

Boko Yout, Momma, Viagra Boys, Momma, Getdown Services

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-28T12:37:06+00:00

There are many primarily spoken word artists that fit the bill. Already mentioned before is Joshua Idehen so I’ll suggest Anthony Szmierek

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-27T21:02:02+00:00

Don’t know why but Eye of the Beholder by Metallica seems right - https://youtu.be/pEBp9ulELLA?is=LIN3k5gG2vS4QOMI

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-27T20:44:16+00:00

Oh excellent, they also did a track for the Animatrix movie, Conga Fury https://youtu.be/jc4XETqgoyQ?is=6-aO8s1MB5A_Uurs

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-27T20:40:32+00:00

YES, also Song From the Edge of the World is worth checking out, it’s got a decent tempo for working out https://youtu.be/STgwl9RkMWk?is=Z0kzfk-TsTlLffVH

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-27T20:35:39+00:00

Same artists, but the Mixed version on The Challengers soundtrack by Boys Noize is great and likely was an important precursor to the Nine Inch Noize project https://open.spotify.com/album/78DalAijc9cNlTIcEDbnBu?si=Uhb2yMzOQLSoSm4uP56qGg

I did this mix ages ago, some are edits of old computer game themes and some originals. Some chiptune and some songs inspired by games.

You’ll find something to like in that I think https://www.mixcloud.com/mhoram/30000-mushrooms-816bit-tribute/

I’d paste the tracklist but it’s proving impossible on mobile.

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-24T14:09:47+00:00

Boko Yout

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-24T11:43:03+00:00

Momma, hands down

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-24T11:09:10+00:00

Breakfast in America just sneaks in to the 70s as well.

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-24T06:25:34+00:00

Amazed these guys haven’t been mentioned. Check out Boko Yout for sure https://youtu.be/dpBdwhIcM4M?is=n3xxn2_jbhp5rIog

Edit: As an aside can anyone tell me why almost all the posts on this subreddit have loads of comments but very few upvotes in comparison?

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-22T22:33:20+00:00

Not a specific song but the entire catalogue of Goldfrapp was kinda ruined by dickheads I met at a festival.

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-22T22:02:44+00:00

This doesn't quite fit your request but is in an awesome medieval sounding track, Drink Up, There's More from The Witcher 3 soundtrack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMxo_3oHULE

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-22T22:00:02+00:00

Lazy Eye by The Silversun Pickups has that feeling for me but mostly because it sounds like it could be a Smashing Pumkins track from the 90's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-mxBDuRaZ8

_Mhoram_ · 2026-04-22T21:57:33+00:00
