90s Music

From Grunge to Gangsta Rap and everything in between! Post a song and let's talk about it!

Rules

  1. All aspects of the LW TOS apply.
  2. Be constructive and don't gatekeep. Music is highly subjective, and people have different tastes.
  3. If the source is YouTube, use the actual YouTube URL rather than a specific Invidious/Piped link. This prevents dead links as those go on/offline or break due to Google changes while also letting people's browser plugins, Lemmy clients, etc automatically re-write YT links to their preferred instances. Feel free to put alternate links in the post body, though.
  4. Put the link to the song in the URL field and not the post body.
  5. Submissions must be from the 90s (1990 - 1999) based on either recorded or release date. e.g. if it was recorded in 1999 but released in 2000, we're not going to split hairs over that; post away. Covers made in the 90s of older music is absolutely allowed and encouraged.

Posting Guidelines / Suggestions

  1. The preferred title format is Artist - Song Name [YEAR]
  2. If a song has a particular meaning or evokes a pleasant memory for you, feel free to share your story with it.

If you have other suggestions that would help grow the community and/or foster discussion, please feel free to share.

So, not sure if this breaks the rules here, but apparently, two weeks ago, Yoko Kanno & SEATBELTS released an extended cut of the incredible TANK! from Cowboy Bebop.

The original anime debuted in 98 in Japan, so... perhaps this counts as 90s music?

I dunno, when it come to exact rules...

... I try not to think.

I think it's appropriate. Doesn't matter if it was performed recently, the song was released in the '90s anyway.

Yoko Kanno absolutely rocks. There is a Youtube music playlist of the various Ghost in the Shell albums. It's about 5 hours long or so. Three days every week I have four hours of dialysis, and most days I play that playlist. It's a comfort. I try to nap a bit and when I inevitably wake up, I can tell where I am timewise by what's playing. :)

Oh I also love the GITS OSTs, just...

...for whatever reason, the youtube algorithm decided to actually work, and was like hey, you're some kinda computer nerd that likes 'music' of some kind, yes?

Here, have this, idiot.

I guess you could say maybe the ghost of the old YT algo is still in there, somewhere...

Anyway, if you like Kanno... well you may also enjoy the entire OST to Trigun, Tsuneo Imahori, if you wanna change things up a bit.

I think it came out as ... 3 different albums with 'Donut' in the name somewhere, maybe 2 or 3 hours of music all in total?

Also, you may enjoy the OST to the old HL2 mod NeoTokyo... its essentially 'Ghost In The Shell: Unofficial Team Deathmatch'.
