Your favourite exploration music?

[Deleted member 166264]

If I'm exploring in or near the Bubble I'll just leave the in-game music on. Otherwise I have an iPod with just under 4,000 tracks on it I'll listen to. Mostly metal or alternative/alternative rock.

Klaus Schulze, Pete Namlook, the more ambient-y stuff of Bill Laswell, Tangerine Dream, Can, Lindstrøm, some Aphex Twin, Hauschka, Modeselektor, Apparat, Moderat etc.

Or if I'm too lazy to set up an actual playlist, then just open Soma FM and choose an appropriate station.

I have 2 new (to me) discoveries, both on Bandcamp.

First band, Cosmic Ground, already the name is telling you they fit. Electronic, laid back, ambient but has a tune. Very nice.

0110, by Cosmic Ground

5 track album

Second up is for those who like it a bit heavier, guitars, some sax, very nice, not throat bleeding deathhore, just a good bit of prog rock.

Dag & Natt, by Kungens Män

10 track album

You can listen to the tracks on Bandcamp for free but not endlessly.

Usually for me it's Klaus Schulze, State Azure or T.Dream to add to the atmosphere (pun intended). At the moment I'm halfway to Colonia & to break the insane monotony I've got S.O.A.D., Rush, Maiden & Slipknot on rotation, but tonight I'm planning on 3hrs of Greenslade, tomorrow may be Beethoven, Ted Nugent or The Mahavishnu Orchestra, who knows. Thing is, on my ship I can play whatever I want to, there's no one else to tell me otherwise, apart from the voices in my head.

As the title says. if you don't watch TV or listen to the in-game music, what bands or types of music do you listen to?

I'll start

I really enjoy "The Midnight" they have a good pace and a great electronic sound that keeps me motivated when discoveries are slim and far between.

I didnt know there is a music in ED... But your selection is awesome... Although I am a rock and metal person, I do enjoy 80s in any form... Thank you!
