I dyslexia’d techno-sea shanties and now there’s a genre I need in my life Edit if you can imagine it, someone has made it
TAKE MY MONEY AND MY MUSIC!
I was thinking БАТЮШКА would have the combination of death metal and Gregorian chant covered. Or maybe black metal and chant, I suppose. Close enough though, imo.
That’s the worst kind of “techno” though…
As I don’t really listen to Sea-Shanties or Techno anymore, the only thing that popped into my brain was that Wellerman song that turned into a whole thing on TikTok a while ago. As that was close to unavoidable at the time.
my favourite “genre” of music is happyish songs about death
examples:
and also all the songs that give me specifically the same vibe. my friends are often confused
edit: thank you all for the recommendations <3 a lot new songs on my favourite playlist!
Not a ‘revival hymn’, but more of a ‘survival hymn’. (As introduced one time by the artist.)
oh that one scratches the itch yes, perfect, thank you!
I don’t like music in major-key but make an exception for Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival, who specifically talked about how he made the juxtaposition between upbeat music and lyrics about the apocalypse and doom a deliberate choice and made one of the all-time classic songs.
Let’s not forget our modern folk artist!
I can’t click those right now, but very much look forward to them. Have one of my favorites:
Man I don’t exactly love two out of four of those genres myself, but this thread has a few commenters that seem to want to pretend they’re the adults in the room but in reality they’re just a bunch of miserable cunts that either hate music or only want to listen to the same fucking popular shit over and over.
Like, popular music is fine to be clear but so is wanting to listen to weirder stuff.
No faster way to make otherwise normal-seeming people go full-on rabies-mode is to make a public statement about a kind of music you don’t like.
It’s wild how people take that as a personal attack. In every instance, in a public space, if you type out distaste in a music genre someone is going to lose all reason and restraint and come at you swinging fucking viking axes.
Meh, your take is kinda trash. You should own what you like and dont like and stop caring what other people think about you so much, especially whatever “normal” people are.
How is my take bad? I didn’t say don’t own what you like, I said people around you become irrational. That’s factual, not a take. You can choose to react any way you want to it.
My playlists get sprinkled with a little Ancient FM: Music of the mediæval and renaissance eras.
So, like… Sleep Token?
No joke though, this is incredible: https://youtu.be/JJpFTUP6fIo
In my day to day playlist I have mostly brutal metal and jazz, with some '90s British trip-hop, Romanian traditional music & hip hop fusion, a bit of manouche, 2000s alternative and '90s grunge here and there…
That’s when I work or work out.
The Diablo or Witcher OSTs are for when I read or do my taxes.
Normal activities: normal music
Taxes: boss music
Heck yeah :)
tiktokcore
I want an artist that combines all four of that into an album, even if by techno it might mean “just some form of electronic music, and not necessarily techno”.
Go to a science fiction convention. Seriously. There’s some wild live music. I wouldn’t be surprised if you heard it there.
I used to go to several in the Northeast US, like Arisia, Lunacon, Philcon, Boscone. Of course yor best bet would be WorldCon.
Hmmm…
Gregorian Death Chanting Shanties - now in Techno!
See if Heilung does it for you. It’s light on the sea shanties, but covers the rest pretty well. Check out their live performance videos on YouTube too, the stage show is arguably the best part.
I fucking love sea shanties. It’s ironic because I’m terrified of water.
deleted by creator
Sea shanties just hit different, especially when sung by native speakers.
Combine all 4: dungeon synth
The same thing happens when I put my King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard discography on shuffle. Gotta at least sort by album or it’s chaos.
Seriously. I saw them play a few years back and thought they were amazing. Some time later my friend put on an album in the car and my thought was, “what is this absolute garbage?” Same band somehow.
Yea, they are good at many sub genres of music, but not everyone is into all of them, or just not in the mood for death metal, jam band, EDM, Folk, and microtonal kazoo music all at one time lol.
(Saw them at Red Rocks last year for all 3 shows, everything was great live)
How do they have seemingly unlimited funds to make all these records?
I think they used a combo of self and indi publishing options early and then made their own label. They even released an album for free. So I assume they have low overhead, and just crank out albums.
They also probably make a ton of money touring.
Easy to go broke on tour, especially if you’ve a large band. Definitely helps they’ve their own label. They also seemed to have higher than norm ticket prices when they were in town here.
Boogie rock, folk psych rock, thrash metal, electronica, and even a bit of hip hop.
Metal and sea shanties with Alestorm
Also Stormseeker
Can somebody please make a bot that scrapes a comment thread and produces a Spotify Playlist with all song suggestions? Would be amazing for this thread!
I would love this. Unfortunately I’m too lazy and incompetent to pull it off.
Mind if I get a link to some of the stuff you listen to? Always down to try new things. Giggidy
So this guy’s meme actually hits pretty close to my music tastes somehow lmao. I think it’s got to be because I grew up with Linkin Park and halo. So that set my path into metal, electronic, and liking chants/shanties. My tastes have grown and changed but generally the meme is right lol.
Metal
Good intro metal bands of various subgenres (featuring catchy clean vocal parts frequently)

Electronic
Currently I listen to a lot of retro EDM. Synth wave specifically. It’s like modern EDM writing a lover letter to the 80s we all see in stranger things. Which, unironically I love the intro to that show. Music like the Weeknds blinding lights fits under this umbrella of genres (https://youtu.be/4NRXx6U8ABQ).

Shout-out to Phonk as a genre too. It’s great for studying or background for working
For sea shanties, the assassin’s creed rogue and ac black flag soundtrack has great versions or real shanties.
Also look up the dreadnaughts
They are polka and shanties. It’s awesome.
The longest John’s are another sea shanty / folk song band that rules.
And the monk chants for me really is just the halo menu music lol. It’s the best game music I’ve ever heard.
I would just click on this stuff and see if you like anything. There’s so much more to these genres than what I’m posting.
Disclaimer: This is just a taste and I just picked some stuff quickly and randomly
