i enjoy listening to music, and if i like a track i’ll throw it into a playlist but i couldn’t tell you anything about the particular album or artist it’s from beyond “this song is cool”

i rely on the music dweebs in my life (my wife) to recommend me new things

Sindri is the guy that works in every Dutch office to make sure everyone else has to listen to the worst radio station imaginable I fear

This is the kind of music they used to broadcast offshore, also known as “piraten muziek”

3373

offshore former oil rig radio broadcasting is still one of the coolest things

I’ve listened to some of the songs on here before and they slap

Warrior of the Mind and My Goodbye, some guy made an animated music video for them

Most if not all of the songs have an animatic to them these days (some made with older audio unfortunately), it’s been great to see the various interpretations of the characters and the consistency like Eurylochus being lorge with a giant sword and Polites having a headband and glasses

gigi and Neal Illustrator are firm favourites of mine, the former has done a lot of the songs which means they can call back to previous animatics and the latter has the best interpretations of Poseidon and Zeus for their boss battle songs

whenever I see it I get fond memories of the late summer at my parents’ home when I was still young, there’d be a fair around that time in town every year and these sort of cries would echo from the town centre, carried by the wind

3387

it’s one of those things that’s relatable even for a brit because we also had those same funfairs every summer and what they were saying over the loudspeaker was so undecipherable that it could well have been dutch

I’m afraid to listen to random music suggestions on the Internet, because I’m almost certain to have my poor eardrums assaulted and to hate it.

This is why I only add music to my collection after having heard someone else play it.
