Music that Needs to Be Shared

[Torrasque]

Oh god, this thread has a huge potential for me to run wayyyy out of hand o_o
Here are 4 quickies:

Your links to those videos don't work. I opened your spoiler boxes to find blank whiteness. Quote one of the posts in here with a working video to see how it's done.

All the same I quoted your post so I could copy and paste the URLs. Nice picks! I especially like "Chambermaid Swing".

Fixed the links in my original post, so you can all bask in their awesomeness now
I'll check out all the songs people have posted since I posted.
And yeah, I don't usually post youtubes on Escapist, and the forums I usually troll have a different system for youtube links /shrug

How do I do the video inside the post?
Edit: Nvm. Got it.

 

[Torrasque]

Stupid double posts >.>

I guess this is an excuse to post moar epic win music!

Spoiler

Spoiler: Opening to the 2nd season of one of my favorite anime

Spoiler: Fan made video of Assassin's Creed done to the extremely good tune of Beautiful Lies

Spoiler: This guy remixes Disney movies into songs, using only sounds from the movie. Pretty epic, and sounds amazing too.

Spoiler: The "Shit is about to go down" song from Escaflowne - Dance of Curse

Everyone has been posting such great songs!
I'll be sure to come back later and check out moar

Some of these make me weep for future generations (cough, autotune, cough, cough), but some also leave me hopeful.

Some lesser known (on these forums anyways) but excellent tracks from an old guy.

DJ Shadow - Awesome sampling DJ (NOT mashups, FU Girltalk)

Spoiler: The Number Song, from Endtroducing

Spoiler: & Blood on the Motorway, from The Private Press (long intro, really hits at 5 mins)

And for God sakes listen to something by Aphex Twin - Here's PWSteal.Ldpinch.D, from the Chosen Lords album

Yes! I'm constantly telling people to give them a listen.

And because it took me ages to find it, and it's a good song: Drive by Joe 90.

Seeing as you bastards went ahead and picked Radiohead out of the list. (Grumble, grumble; I've got one or two things to share.

First of all, who knew that Radiohead singer/song-writer/god had made a solo-album and was in a super-group with Flea From Red Hot Chili Peppers, among others?

Ladies and gentlefolk, I present, "Atoms for Peace - The Eraser"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDSbDf6uAO4&feature=related

And then to mix things up a bit, how about a sprinkle of "Tv on the Radio - Wolf like Me"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1-xRk6llh4

And how about some "Portugal, The Man - Guns and Dogs"?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUet9-UTr1k

And some "Fleet Foxes - Mykonos"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT-dxG4WWf4

And my second last one, I give you "The Pixies - Hey"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIkWJZf33UY

And to finish all of this up with a flair of integrity,

"Joy Division - Disorder"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PldpBJEn4vQ


Cheers for all the tips, guys, some decent music out there, after all.

And yeah, I know it's not all so very obscure, but I reckon most young folk couldn't tell The Pixies from Nirvana, so I thought I'd share.

Well, since you asked:


and from the video game with possibly the greatest sound track of any game ever made:


Nice topic, share the wealth that is music! >:O
