I have a very long playlist that isn't easily C&P'ed how I would like it to be. It consists of several sci-fi movies and video games, including but not limited to the Star Wars series, Star Gate, Perfect Dark, X-men, the MCU, F-Zero, Aliens, ST:First Contact, and Doctor Who.

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back

I think a lot depends on what aspects of the setting you're concentrating on. Or maybe a better way to say that would be the feel you're trying for.

I've been giving this same topic some thought lately. So far I have a few songs and artists in mind.

Anti-You by Blue Stahli
Monody by The Fat Rats
Fade by Alan Walker
Lots of Combichrist and Faderhead
Some Celldweller

I think I have the list on my computer. I'll check after work today.

Dio and Savatage? I dig.


I usually do instrumental or soundtracks from movies and games. Space/PW? Mass Effect or some ethereal space rock. New West? Red Dead OST, spaghetti western music, etc. Gunnin' and Runnin'? Gimme that heavy crunch.

If doing the Phaseworld setting? Any sci-fi movie soundtrack / score.
Rifts badlands? Frontline Assembly, Ramstein, or any industrial band.
Generic? Vid-game soundtracks (trust me; some of the stuff out there is as good if not better than most movie scores); I'm particularly fond of Warframe's score. https://youtu.be/YZF3WrZscK0 ((Originally titled 'For the Queens'))

A void in the sentient sky
I dream of fissures across the moon
