In-Game Score

Alright, this thing has to have some crazy shit music. However, I have the right idea to make this game such that when anons play it it will be fun, but the rest of the world will go batshit insane. Thus, I have begun to compile some music for the in-game score that is cool with me but makes other feel dead. I think that to go with the theme there shouldn't really be any death metal, but suggestions are welcome. This thread can be the official music thread. So anyway, on to the songs:

Aphex Twin - Schottkey 7th Path | Link: http://brofi.st/s/202 | This isn't particularly scary, so it might be in the intro.
Aphex Twin - Xtal | Link: http://brofi.st/s/203 | Another fairly peaceful song, possibly for an intro.
Fuck Buttons - Colours Move | Link: http://brofi.st/s/204 | | This is a much louder song that could be used for a rape cut scene or something of the sort.

This is all that I have so far, and although the list is short, this could cover a fair portion of the game. Again, suggestions are welcome.

how bout that?

Those all look nice, especially that Fantomas track. Post lings to more if you can think of them.

We could use binaural beats, in some parts of the game - for example when the main character goes insane.
If we are gonna make our own score, we should use lots of samples of babies crying, women sobbing, men screaming and so on, but hide it behind the music, so it has a subliminal effect..
Also we could hide all sorts of messages in the score - like, "hail Satan", "Kill your parents", and so on. And then tip off the media about it...

That sounds awesome. I especially like the idea of much of it being subliminal. Creep the hell out of most people. Also, although I know this is off topic, it would be cool to have the game always have the eerie feel that you are being watched if it is possible.

Keep in mind we can't use just one type of music.

I suppose a good idea in terms of score would be to vary the musical theme when every map or stage is completed.

May I suggest Headhunterz Power of the Mind for introducing the main character as the lyrics set the perfect tone for who you are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v77fp_TY758 is the version I am talking about. starting at 2:12 is where the lyrics I was talking about really start.

We could use mood music. Sad music for sad times, happy music for happy times, epic music for when shit gets crazy... OR we could do it all backwards. Sad music when slaughtering the masses, and songs like caramelldansen when someone important and loved dies. Stab your mom, get disco. I'll definitely help with the music in any way I can.

Yes, what Dr Tran said, i like this, except i would say carmelldansen would be for the random slaughterfests, cause remember, slaughter cant be spelled without laughter.

So, games with an awesome soundtrack tend to be... awesome. Look at Einhander. AMAZING game for the PS1. The music set the tone of the stage PERFECTLY. Timesplitters: Future Perfect. A combo of Techno and Orchestral (I think) that melded beautifully. Killer 7 had a very mellow soundtrack, but managed to still send off an air of urgency and fear. Mood music will be essential for this game to make it past anyone. The ESRB isn't going to rate it if it sounds like shit. We need someone to MAKE music for this game, rather than take it from Aphex Twin and Locust or whatever. I'll talk to some people about it.
