Omega Striker's Spotify Playlists

[raw aurora]

So many of the artists I like use nudity in their album arts, so that makes them unusable here by default ?

dayum that's kinda stupid if you ask me

[oak fox]

Look at it this way:
The mods simply just don't want the complication, blame, or issues that may arise with their underaged users being exposed to nudity or sexual things of any kind.

[raw aurora]

Yeah no worries I get it, you can't exactly have a discord and ask everyone to be 18 lol

especially on an official discord for a game

[oak fox]

That's a cute playlist name. Though the songs don't fit, if you're offering, I'd be happy to change his playlist to that name.

[raw aurora]

I hope they put some paramore in vyce's playlist

[gusty remnant]

True I realized the name was wrong after. Sure

[raw aurora]

based

[gusty remnant]

Curious to see what you do with the Zen playlist when you get around to it!

[oak fox]

The zen playlist already exists!

[gusty remnant]

Mb it wasn't pinned

[oak fox]

The pin is to bring you to the first post with ease. Due to the character limit, these playlists have to be in multiple messages.

[gusty remnant]

I have a suggestions for Estelle's playlist: https://open.spotify.com/track/2RipPrvaLuRULqqnnTin83?si=c54383c1abd14415

[oak fox]

This is kind of a far-stretch from her theme's original melody and genre, no?

[gusty remnant]

Is it? I thought it was pretty similar, or atleast in the same ballpark.

Eitherway, just a suggestion

[oak fox]

I can hear the similarities, but it's a similarity that's comparable to something like Drum & Bass & Artcore, where they're similar but not quite the same.
Still don't let the rejection turn you away. People suggest dozens of songs and a few will tend to slip by and get in because they're perfect fits.

[gusty remnant]

More ideas:
Vyce: https://open.spotify.com/track/6q7tXbbAOFY9qMT6LMKHnA?si=4c122be2513b4155
Era: https://open.spotify.com/track/0RsOUnm1wNpbXxZ8a4abOP?si=4110903b0ad24a01

[oak fox]

Zeri's theme actually feels more akin to Kai's theme with the phonk in the middle but it's not prominent enough for me to be able to slip it there, I think.

Still, Vyce doesn't have too much and she could always use some more; worst case scenario, it gets removed at a later date, added

Amaranth is a bit too heavy without enough uplifting high pitched contrasts but it's close.
Era's hard to get music for.

[gusty remnant]

Zeri's theme is so thematically a fit for Vyce even though it doesn't quite have the same tunes as hers which is unfortunate

[oak fox]

There's a lot of songs that thematically fit the strikers. But we cannot go by feeling, we have to go by objectively being similar to their original theme(s).

Thematically, "X Gon' Give it to Ya" would fit X just fine. But not his theme at all.

[earnest ravine]

i think it’d be funny asf if his theme was based on that song

[gusty remnant]

https://open.spotify.com/track/2YnMLbniqeFZIZr57CRU4D?si=169e74fb73ee446f
https://open.spotify.com/track/6y3xg7hTnVpU5Jj224we6M?si=6b7c3832244449a2
Were these two songs a bad fit for the Zentaro playlist?

[oak fox]

sorry I never responded, evelyn fits in, I think, so it's in there!

[gusty remnant]

np. cheers!

[hoary iris]

Octavia?
https://open.spotify.com/track/1gWspsqIlZpf14gfLTXZFK

[oak fox]

This would fit more Atlas than Octavia because of the Drum & bass genre.

[worldly pollen]

Potentially for Finii? https://open.spotify.com/track/1JCOOwvbwat9KLWbepwzd9?si=c365f2399c2a40af

[fast osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKdOUJOuv1k For Luna

or Juno

[oak fox]

Neither work for either's theme, sadly. But it does fit both of their vibes.

[oak fox]

This is pure chiptune, doesn't fit Finii's theme

(Though chiptune does fit her lobby offshoot version)

[wanton grove]

https://open.spotify.com/track/2ScyTY2WLeUxxYoZ0QCHzK?si=82fe98b2a5bb452c

Its a bit of a stretch but Rasmus?

[oak fox]

It's actually a bit more leaning into Era's territory with its keys and its guitar combination, it's a bit on the heavier side, but I threw it in there.

[faint sluice]

https://open.spotify.com/track/0h4jXVVMs45azHOtlSCws1?si=4a429f819073481b
Thought this was a good recommendation for Kai?

And also something for Ai.Mi
https://open.spotify.com/track/7LHN7zV5RLPws662nQ4iWr?si=1a29b9f703e04678

[oak fox]

Kazan is out soon so I'll be working on that

[glad tundra]

https://open.spotify.com/track/62N1SzWURLfJyZp5oB7sDC

For octy

https://open.spotify.com/track/14miRMV78M1iWIr4hIUlel

This one too

[gusty remnant]

Two ideas for Kazan:

https://open.spotify.com/track/3p69i94rCdtHoj2D9jQVhg?si=e6f0291c5ff24c4d

[oak fox]

I'll check on these soon

[echo saffron]

Here's my contribution to Kazan's playlist

https://open.spotify.com/track/3pgp77MHAdVeIabknEosdp?si=gPgf8R6DSu2h-l6P2IlhAw

[oak fox]

Libertas works, added
Lunatic, not so much

[oak fox]

Kazan's must feeling asian by nature because that's the general vibe of his theme.
The genre is a bit vague so we can play around that, but the asian quality to it has to exist in any suggestions.

[oak fox]

Same with this.

Kazan's theme is a counterpart of Juliette's theme, it's designed nearly the same way, but with Drek'ars raw energy stiched onto it. (it even has Go Strike!'s motif in it.)

The only contrast it that is has a crazy breakdown that spices it up.

[stark drum]

possible attempt with a wrestling theme. heres one for X

https://open.spotify.com/track/0BSS97ZM1jOKYgvdOufrtO?si=69c519e908384718

[wanton grove]

Possibly Kazan

https://open.spotify.com/track/1uALiYcM3gH8WDdxkAZotg?si=351fa56b390243fb

https://open.spotify.com/track/7GonnnalI2s19OCQO1J7Tf?si=5cb3d9c77e234008
The song I use whenever I score.

[oak fox]

This sadly does not fit Methods of Madness

[oak fox]

This doesn't fit any of the themes.

[gentle mason]

I had a question and was recommended to ask it in this channel; is there a note sheet for the music that plays during the Striker select screen? I think it's this one, but a bit slower: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZ6NPo1Rb2E

[oak fox]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kxtK0tVx2c This is the theme and idk, this is the spotify playlist thread.

[stark drum]

just a repost thing incase this was missed ^

[glad tundra]

I can try transcribing it if i feel like it

[gentle mason]

I appreciate it, but I actually found it on YT!

[barren nest]

This fits Rasmus imo
https://spotify.link/RpX5uiez4Cb

[oak fox]

Definitely somehow skipped (oops)
This is def goin' in

[oak fox]

This has got the castlevania touch to it and I can see where you're coming from with it, but Rasmus's theme isn't necessarily orchestral metal.

[stark drum]

neato, first wrestling theme in, lez go!

XD

[wispy gull]

What are the rules on swearing in the Lyrics?

[oak fox]

Same as the server rules

[wispy gull]

some suggestions for Atlas

For octy perhaps?

[stable socket]

is there a nao playlist?

[solar stirrup]

NAH this is wild I just found this forum post and Im like "oh im about to fucking DESTROY the Rasmus playlist i got this" AND YALL ALREADY HAVE SALIERI STRIKES BACK THATS INSAAANE

Truly immaculate music taste, these Rasmains

The fact its They Who Govern Reason, Salieri Strikes Back, Worlds End Valentine AND Icefield White Knight already on the playlist.
If "The Vampire Saga" from Guilty Gear XX's Korean OST was available on Spotify I'd recommend it 100%
But for now my best recommendations for Razyboy thats not on the playlist already is Mantis Lords from Hollow Knight's OST, or Pursuit ~ Casting Magic from PLvsAA's OST (if yall are fine with the lack of rock instruments).

[oak fox]

Given how much work it's been to make the playlist, I've taken a kind of hiatus on it. Especially since a number of themes are quite hard to find any good music for that fit that particular original theme's style.

I might resume it and people are still free to suggest stuff all they like, I'll end up adding it if it fits.
As far as I know, Nao's theme is mostly comprised of UK Garage inspirations.

[oak fox]

A good lot of it was added through me with Spotify's suggestions and my searching.
It's not quite about music taste. It's more about just "Does this match Rasmus's theme"

But yeah, Nao's theme. It's mostly comprised of UKG inspirations buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut.

It also has other stuff mixed in and it's quite a bit more hype and energetic than the typical UKG.

Which is a problem since 99% of UKG is not what Nao's theme is, despite being so heavily inspired by it.

The plus side is, as long as I can get like 3 or so songs that do fit the vibe and nature of the original theme, I can usually go off that.

[ember jolt]

@oak fox btw bless your heart for making those playlists, thank you for putting in your time and energy into it. It's understandably hard and admittedly I try to make a sound that is unique in everything I make.

[oak fox]

I appreciate the kind words, I'll probably pick it up again relatively soon. It just takes a long time of sifting though music to find just the right ones.

If it's not much to ask, if you have any particular songs you take inspiration from in particular, it'd help me a TON. Though that only goes so far when you have some musical artist making "latino inspired chiptune breakcore but not breakcore" and shipping it as if they didn't just invent a new genre.

[ember jolt]

latino inspired chiptune breakcore but not breakcore
about that next music release...

[oak fox]

lmao

I'm pretty sure I know what's coming, but i didn't think you'd use breakcore of all things for it, but it makes sense

[ember jolt]

I would say for Nao, it was Jamiroquai like Canned Heat, NSR (City Streets in particular), yes def Persona (tbh a combo of 3 and 5 together, like Mass Destruction)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jFaoLrLzd4

[oak fox]

James really looked at Nao and went "is that fucking Joker? cool imma make persona music then"

[ember jolt]

lmaoo

[oak fox]

[ember jolt]

people hear one jazz chord and be like Persona Vibes

Writing music for Nao (and all chars for OS tbh) is tricky because it needs to cover different micro moods while maintaining the thread of consistent song vibe

[oak fox]

Writing music is just another way of writing a story. At least, that's the way I see it.

[ember jolt]

Theres moments in her theme that are more heroic, or a little darker, or having a desire for redemption

definitely

and ofc, needs to wrap nicely that its a theme for someone to hear and be like "oh fuck yeah I wanna play this character"

[oak fox]

This is why I think the shop or the striker select pages should play the themes.

That said, the next theme, is it actually something akin to breakcore? If you're even allowed to say that much.

Well, something close enough to it anyways

[ember jolt]

hahah that part was a joke I can't say yet on what we're doing next but, I'm feeling good about it 🙂

[oak fox]

Fair enough. Either way, thanks again for the input and appreciation on this thing. I don't have plans on completely abandoning it.

Have a good day, man

[gusty remnant]

https://spotify.link/nPLT8QSl6Db

Here's some songs I found that might fit the Nao vibe

[lament pivot]

[rancid remnant]

https://spotify.link/2lF0YRNkaEb
This might work for x but you tell me

[flint zodiac]

i have so many songs that could fit multiple characters but none of them are on spotify anyways ty for these playlists OP i'm listening to them while i draw :3

[oak fox]

You can try to look for covers or different version through spotify, that's always an option.

[stark drum]

this still active or nah?

[oak fox]

Nah, I don't update it anymore, but if anyone else wants to take the reigns on it, I wouldn't mind.
