Mountain/Swamp Village Themes from Majoras Mask

I like this kind of music when im feeling like i need to sit with some ennui or just be chilling sorta neutral and keep my mind blank for a bit

I feel strongly that there is value to having it available and it helps modulate to a different productive state after I've spent some time in it

Maybe easy uneasy music is a better illustration haha

I listen to videogame music more than I'd like to admit, and this is subjective so here are some tracks which give me that kind of vibe:

Flip Swap Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy 2

Zelda A Link to the Past Music - Sanctuary

Pikmin 2 OST - Valley of Repose

The Disco Elysium ost by British Sea Power (not a big fan of their other work sadly), similarly Godspeed You! Black Emeror’s got a similar vibe (predates them by a while)

I've always thought Seasick, yet Still Docked was a lovely, low-key, underrated Morrissey song, full of malaise, yet also with a strange, infectious energy.

Also, there's a big, iconic song like this (maybe several) by Mazzy Star. Was it... Fade in to You?

Approximate Sunlight by Bright Eyes

Nights That Won't Happen by Purple Mountains

If it needs to be instrumental, the Disco Elysium soundtrack by British Sea Power is pretty excellent (though it goes through a bit of an emotional spectrum beyond malaise imo)

That Purple Mountains album is great. It's just heartbreaking that it ended up being a suicide note.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

That Purple Mountains is so good! I'd throw some Silver Jews in the mix for OP, too. Same singer as Purple Mountains

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

Country Tropics by Old Saw for some real uneasy ambient Americana listening

Maybe silent hill 2's soundtrack? I'm not coming up with a lot of ideas otherwise, sorry
