Some good old old industrial

If you fancy the visuals, the whole tape is called Kinetic Engineering. Good stuff. And epilepsy warning, not so much here but definitely in song Hacker and few others.

Hokuto No Ken is not a particularly good anime (despite Akira Kamiya's memorable performance as the equally memorable Kenshiro), but its soundtrack is easily my favorite anime soundtrack after Shunsuke Kikuchi's Dragon Ball.

Since the weather finally remembered that it is supposed to be snowing in December, I felt like listening to this excellent Donkey Kong Country 2 remix:

@ducon what do you think of the Alan Parsons Project albums? I've only ever listened to Tales of Mystery and Imagination and I used to love it as a teenager. Never really explored their other records. I think I listened to I, Robot once but if you held a gun to my head and told me to name a song I'd say shoot me. I'm sure it's good, I just don't remember a thing from it.

It’s a bit old-fashioned, some might find their music too pop, too clean, too easy. But I robot contains some choirs that might have been played in 2001 a space odyssey. It’s an audacious and risky choice in such a pop album.

Try I robot and Eye in the sky. Then you might think about listening to the others. I did not buy Gaudí, at the time, and I still did not. May be in ten years.

That's one hell of a vibe. Is that a planning or debriefing track? Or something you'd hear in the field?

It’s part of the planning music, there’s like 4-5 planning tracks for the game. I think this track in particular is called “Launch”.

I really like Ministry, I had a dentist who was a fan of Pearl Jam and I once shared to him this acoustic performance featuring Eddie Vedder:

 

 

He ended up liking it quite a bit. I think Al sounds great there, and that Bob Dylan cover is very well made in my opinion. Really enjoy the studio version of the cover as well.
