I think a Louie Zhong & Ginger Root crossover would fix me

I'm crying! I love them so much!

The new soldier poet king lyric video is so cute, i love that the song keeps getting attention.

The detail put in the video is lovely too, i love how it's not just a music video but it has a really well animated visual side to it (does it make a music video then?), also LOVING the fairytale/pop up book aesthetic, it really fits.

But most important of all

✨they spin✨ qwq

im gonna shave off youtubes ceo's eyebrows if i dont get autoplay back

[backupstardust]

I’m going through the notes and taking the replies as music recommendations thank u

everyone knows "character playlist challenge no mother mother songs" blah blah but these only cater to the limited pool that the OP chooses. i want some REAL fun so tell me in the tags what artists you would ban for yourself. yes you can include the classic stereotypes, live your truth

1, 4, 6, 10, 11, 25, 30 🥰💋❤️‍🔥

1. what songs make you feel better?

anything from the oh hellos. their sound is comforting to me. their albums have a really nice destiny calls sorta vibe. waiting for death by candle kid is also a nice treat when looping my playlists. it's a good hype up song for quite literally anything for me. bonus: pocket by louie zhong and bdg is 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

4. what flower would you like to be given?

sunflowers 🌻🌻🌻 though I am not opposed to a bitty cactus. I know it's not a flower, technically, but i feel a lot more open to a succulent or a fern.

6. say three nice things about yourself (three physical and three non-physical)

I see that this is a ruse to get me to talk kindly to myself. Well I won't have it! /j

this is a seriously tough question, though.

i like that i actually look good in a dark collared shirt matched with suspenders and some kind of pants in either bright or muted colors. i like the fact that i am fat. i thank the universe everyday for my high spice tolerance.

I go out of my way to be kind, even when im tired. I'm a really good game master. i always try to go higher than whats expected of me.

10. what's something you're excited for?

I have a pathfinder game coming up at the start of november. I haven't played the system before, but from what I've read so far, I'm really excited to test things out. I'm also excited to get paid? I recently started working again a couple of weeks ago, and I'm getting paid a couple of weeks from now. And this is something a little more long term, but I'm excited to see my sweetheart when the time comes.

I'm starting to save up some dosh! hopefully I'll have enough to visit by the end of next year.

11. what's your ideal date?

Hehe. I see you, hon.

Mall date, hands down. I would like to spend an entire date at the mall. Going to a movie at the cinema in the mall, walking around, grabbing snacks and treats or popping by the food court to have lunch, going to the arcade, then going to the bookstore or game store or misc. knick knack store.

Even something as mundane as grocery shopping for some good dinner, tbh.

25. what's the best personal gift someone could give you?

time. just time to goof around or spend with each other.

for things that are purely material? some good lunch tbh. I love getting treated to food.

30. what reminds you of home?

getting back to me i see hehe.

You, my sweetheart. As cliche as it sounds, a home is where the heart is is a pretty solid saying. coming back to you after a very hard day makes me soft and gooey on the inside.

smells of home cooked meals too, and the rain. I miss the rain.

Spotify Discovery Review

So I wanted to try something new and figured I'd dive into more music thoughts, and since I've been actually listening to my Spotify Discovery (I needed new music lol) so yeah.

Overall Rating: 13/30 that I really like and even sort of like, so not bad. Probably won't be saving a ton of these for later listening, a few might go into some character playlists at least so that's good. We'll see if any grow on me. Below are some of the standouts good, bad, and indifferent. A few songs I didn't include bc they're instrumentals that I didn't really have any thoughts on. Not even neutral thoughts.

Good

Dear Alice (rainy days)

Slow and dreamlike, it's not really a surprise that there's heavy Alice in Wonderland theming but even though there's not a ton of singing, I found myself enjoying the ride.

Femme Fatale

A fantastic beat, a combination of western and tango aesthetics, a fast paced ride that makes me want to groove. Love the flirty danger that drips off of every word, it's got a solid identity and doesn't feel like it's trying too hard to be "edgy" or anything.

YOUR HEAD'S ON FIRE

Louie Zhong is always a bop and his lyrical style is always a joy. Unconventional metaphors and fun little bits, a very groovy guitar line that makes you want to wiggle.

Blink of an eye

Halfy and Winks make DSMP songs, I'm aware of this, however I love their musical style and lyrics. Gives me heavy inspiration for my own story just with how vivid and story based their stuff is. The revolutionary spark in here is nice.

Invisible Dan Avidan has popped into my feeds and I’m not really complaining? I love the rock style/retro vibe that this one has going on, his vocals really sell it. A little bit chase scene a little bit breakdown but overall a good time.

The Moon and Stars

Good folk vibes, gets close to scratching the same itch that The Crane Wives do but not quite, which is still a good time for me. We'll see if this fits a character in future.

The Manic

A great character song, will be applying to my blorbos soon. The pushing away from someone you love because you know you'll hurt them eventually and can't take it. Very good stuff.

Dance While the Sky Crashes Down

Eyyy Jason Webly, I remember you from WTNV. A tango for the end of the world and honestly isn't that a mood? I love the lyrics, although it drags a smidge at the end. Maybe because of TMA I'm a little more inclined towards this.

A song whose title is in Japanese. It's from land of the lustrous and I cannot copy paste the title.

Very eerie, very atmospheric. I haven't watched the show in its entirety myself, but I know that it has horror and suspense interwoven in some of the back half, and the clanking bells and echoes really give the sensation of being watched. Of being on edge. Good stuff.

Break Your Cranck

An altogether inexplicable piece. It’s done on a hurdy gurdy which is already a plus but. It. It sounds like electronica crafted by pirate bees. With some Indian influence thrown in for flavor. Like a space punk pirate bazaar. Very atmospheric but also so so confusing. I love it.

Dance of the blood drunk

A balance of wild carnival and orchestral splendor, feels like an epic batter on a grand scale. The unsteady thrill of never knowing if you’re winning or not.

Neutral

Absence

I kinda forgot what this sounded like tbh.

How Dare You

Pretty good? No real feelings on it.

I was an island

Again with the good lyrics, but the instrumentation and singing are on the verge of being unlistenable? Like I can listen, and I could see myself putting this on a character playlist or two for sure.

Tavern crawl

A fun little bawdy medieval style song, Annapantsu kills it as expected, but bar songs/drinking songs aren’t really my vibe? But I could see myself grooving to this generally.

Brand new city

Mitski, which is good, but some of her stuff doesn't hit me as much as it does others, and this is one of those times. Not bad by any means, just not something I can see myself going back to.

Cold, cold, cold

Has a story to it, the grandiosity is nice especially near the end but the whole song together doesn’t quite capture me in the way that other artists in this space do. I could listen to it if I was in a particular mood but otherwise it’s not a stand out.

Bitch, Bitch, Bitch

I do like the Jekyll and Hyde musical don't get me wrong but I'm not a huge fan of this one? It's mostly a song meant to establish the upper crust as mindless gossips and twits, the combination of the old Disney-musical style instrumentals and the rather vulgar (by Victorian standards) lyrics is funny but that's all its got.

Timekeeper's Heartbeat

An interesting case where I like the instrumentals and most of the lyrics but it fails to really coalesce into a song? There's bits that don't rhyme for no reason, it comes across like one of those English vocaloid covers that doesn't adjust for the context. If it is, I wouldn't be surprised.

Nah

Whiplash (Black Math) Don’t like listening to it, not much else to really say here.

Wish you were gay I’m aware this one is a bit of a darling in some of the animation meme circles but I don’t really care for the instrumentation or the lyrics. Unpleasant to listen to.

Two's a party Jazz/cabaret but there’s not really a depth to it imo. I find it a bit hard to listen to despite the singer being pretty good if a bit... too whispery. A combination of the lyrics and sudden trumpet jump scares ig.

Judas An interesting concept and premise, the dichotomy of a queer relationship contrasted with the religious imagery is layered but the vocal performance doesn’t really do it for me. Seems to want to be mountain goats but it’s a little too raw?

I DONT TRUST U ANYMORE Person with a guitar genre, valid feelings but vocal performance is a bit flat. Reminds me of blink 182 but with none of the energy.

[cholatey]

Louie zhong was such an integral part of my middle school years… love you dude u rock

[simcardiac-arrested]

if you like louie zhong, hello world is a good song for iterators in general and it would probably fit both nwb or ns, but i'm leaning towards ns because i think the whole "programmed to work and not to feel" thing might fit their thing about not having time for any "distractions". plus the second part of the lyric "will i find a love/or a power plug" could be a good line for ascension, which nwb pretty explicitly has no interest in, but ns is still looking for ways to ascend

(sorry i just realised this got a bit wordy. i like your ocs btw! in case you couldn't tell from the above rambling)

OH I LOVE THAT SONG!!! it’s definitely a very General iterator song which is why i didnt rly add it to the playlist, it’s just like. collective iterator song

but i do agree it could fit both ns and nwb! especially the last two lines here fit nwb well i think:

[fullbodycringe]

The colab between talented YouTuber animators who make music sometimes (or musicians who... I dunno) you didn't know you needed! So chill

worthikids - flutes

me - harp, keys, bass, percussion

[beepington]

hello beepster! ion know if you remember leaving that me that ask after my post on chlorinde's story quest but i wanted to include you in this ask game. list 5 top songs or favorite songs then send the ask to 5 other people :3

yeah, i do dwdw!! feel free to interact at any time, i just have sporadic periods of tumblr activity haha

i dont really listen to music i'm afraid <//3 freak statement i know. most of my exposure to it is basically just listening to songs that've been recommended to me 😭😭 so i cant think of anything on the spot.

songs i like as a whole vs songs i like listening to (usually more upbeat ones that are indie/pop/rock that generally get me energized) are lretty different, but as for the former: i like nightcord at 25:00's discography? and engeki/theatre for its emotional meaning to me within the story, umm. I also like 'hello world' by louie zhong because i too am a little robot fellow. and 'you smell of dead flowers'! i'll probs reblog or something if i think of anything else, haha.

[pirate-captain-froggy]

[ent-is-indecisive]

The problem with louie zhong's musics is that theyre all delicious little bites and i dont want them to stop so im awake way past my bedtime

[poopybirdman]
