Soo nice stuff there, I especially like the one with C418.

Anyways, a bit of help is required, if you guys don't mind.

This song, it's quite good, but what I'm interested in is the first 30 seconds, I think it's form some X-Files music piece but not much is coming up.

[Aptus]

Sounds like a noir-version of the x-files theme. Kind of reminds me of this piece. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyEV0OHlgaE&feature=related

If any of you like Slim Shady, Alt. Rap, or Battle Rap, and you haven't checked Hospin, do it.

"I'm going door-to-door, with foreign swords, slaying rappers commericial or horrorcore!"

"I'm the illest and it's fo' shizzle', my flow sizzles yo' boy HAWT! Go hard like some cold nipples."

"See, when I be comin' through kicking it raw niggas like 'Gee he's dope', if anyone's throwing dirt on my name then you know he be toast, for all of you rappers bringing me drama homie, please be ghost..."

Poetry. Also, dat Ben 10 Wallsticker.

I thought I'd show off the Astronomy playlist. Being strapped for time by my other classes, my only hours available for Astronomy homework fell between 10 and 12 PM on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. A handy side effect was that I was able to look outside and do some stargazing when assignments required it. (Though I couldn't afford the recommended telescope and therefore had to just stare through my binoculars until I saw Mars. Using a ruler, a plumb line, and compass to calculate angles between the horizon and particular stars, etc.

It was supposed to become really metallic and crazy at the end so that I would remain awake. It's also full of astronomy-things, or at least hilariously awful sci-fi lyrics. The tests each took me about 90 minutes, so this list usually played start to finish. As a special bonus, I'll even show some of the better word salads.

01. Magnum P.I. Theme - Played by astronauts in the mornings on the ISS.

02. Spaceman - Journey

03. United Federation of Planets Anthem - Star Trek TNG

04. Space Stallions Theme

05. Cosmic Revelation - Luca Turilli

Hyperspace to Neptune
Quantum's based multi-cores
Pax atomic starship
cryogenic source

I don't even.

06. Jupiter - Earth, Wind & Fire

07. The Final Countdown - Europe

08. Shining Star - Earth, Wind & Fire

09. Icarus, Borne on Wings of Steel - Kansas

10. Icarus II - Kansas

11. Princes of the Universe - Queen

12. I Belong to the Stars - Rhapsody of Fire

13. By the Light of the Northern Star - Týr

14. Prince of the Starlight - Luca Turilli

Star... light... shine!
FROM THIS GODFORSAKEN PLACE
WHERE THE ENEMY HAS NO FACE
I CALL THE MYSTIC STARLIGHT

15. Dark Comet's Reign - Luca Turilli

And so unexpected came that sad mystic day
no words could have told what now was happening
It! fell! down! quaking! the! Ze!phyr's surface!
blinding the eyes of a thousand dying men
who were looking at it falling right over them
What! seemed! to! be an a!stral! fireball!
was hurling metal, a dark and giant starship
colliding with Zephyr's volcanic grey rocks...
grey rocks!

16. Rider of the Astral Fire - Luca Turilli

FROM THE DUST OF A TIME NOW FORGOTTEN
IT WILL COME THE DESTROYER OF WORLDS
AS THE LEGEND OF THE ANCIENTS
REVEALED WITH ITS WORDS
IT WILL COME FROM THE BLOODY DIMENSION
WHERE DEATH IS A PRESENT FROM GOD

17. Raging Starfire - Rhapsody of Fire (Actually pretty coherent compared to most of their songs. Saved for near-last because awesome.)

18. Einen Jodler Hör i Gern - Franzl Lang - The best of south German music.

19. War of the Universe - Luca Turilli

Parallax of suns create
geometry of moons unborn
Spread the knowledge of the creatures
between curious there and not
Comets' riders
Astral fighters
Heroes of celestial shores

20. Per Aspera ad Astra March - A German military march by a composer that I don't know. Per Aspera ad Astra means 'Through hardship to the stars', and is the motto of NASA.


Hopefully I'll be able to continue this tradition during next year's astrophysics class. (Though I wouldn't mind doing during the day, instead.) Anyone happen to have vaguely astronomy related songs to share? This list could use some updating after several months of use.

Vaguely astro/space songs off the top of my head.

Nearly anything by Rosetta. They might take some getting used to, but if you've ever listened to any Isis, Cult of Luna, Neurosis or anything like that they are similar, just with a spacier sound. For starters try TMA-1, a purely instrumental, mostly gentle track. And in case you didn't get the reference there is one of their heaviest tracks with screaming about the monolith.

Amplifier have a couple that could work, but the obvious one is Interstellar. It has a laser sound effect. The Wave works as well, especially with the video. Although that might be more acid trip than space trip. Also UFOs which has to be one of my favourites.

God Is An Astronaut are instrumental post-rock somewhere between ambient and regular most-rock. I find them a really useful chameleon band; they seem to match your mood whether you are trying to fall to sleep, focus on some work or dance your arse of at a gig. I have their discography in a playlist and whenever I can't think of anything to listen to I just hit play on it. The first few space linked titles I can think of are Suicide by Star, Worlds in Collision, Sunrise In Aris, Zodiac. Their online shop lets you stream any of their songs for free as well as selling DRM free downloads in mp3 or wav.

A good chunk of Ayreon's 01011001 album would fit. It's a rock/metal opera about aliens spawning life on earth so they can experience emotions through humans. Age of Shadows is good. Ride the Comet includes the opening line, "Find your way home, little extremophiles." Liquid Eternity is less about space but still very Sci-Fi and shows off some of the vocal chops they pulled together.

I'm sure I could track down more, but that's it for the obvious ones.
