playlist challenge request: spock + only music that you think sounds futuristic
I went back and forth on this so much mate! At first I was like, yeah, I know what I think music will sound like in the future. So I grabbed a bunch of those. Then I was like, no, that's not normal and people won't like that, so I grabbed some club beat songs with synth sounds. And then I read the ask again and I was like. Well, that's my friend asking. I wanna put the songs in that I think are futuristic. Even if they're weird as hell
So I did, but I only found five that suit Spock so I put five of those club beat songs in too lol
So, the first five or six are my idea of futuristic songs. Then it gets a bit more normal <3
Exploration - this is perfect! It's about exploring space! I love this tune, the sitar is gorgeous. I like to imagine Spock playing this on his lyre or whatever it was
The 2nd Law: Isolated System - what's not to love here? And yeah, Vulcan alone (isolated) on a human craft, all relevant. And sciencey!
Stars - this is a really funky song. Also, the spoken bit in the middle is awesome for Spock (also the "you think you know what love is boy" line brings big "it's me boy the ps5 speaking to you from inside your brain" energy)
The Savage Bush Hotel - now, you've gotta stick with this one a bit. I think it's awesome. It includes sections from that old song anyone who knows what love is which has some of Spock's pride in himself in it
Kolysova - it has some lines in English too, which feel good for me with Spock's dual heritage. And the English lyrics feel right
Summer 3 - Robot Koch Remix - this got pretty popular in my circle of friends so I don't know if it's well known or not. Great remix of old music, which I think is gonna happen in the future much more. Esp like this. I picked a summer one cos Vulcan is a desert country
A New Sky - it's got lines bout going blind (which Spock does that one ep) and swimming (hello whales) and is generally about skies! I grew up on this band, they're good synth tech
Computer Games - well, yeah! Do we all know this song?? It's from '79 by a New Zealand band and it's fantastic. And it's from the pov of a computer man, which is good Spock stuff
Nobody - I'm being a bit focused on lonely Spock, but it's a topic people sing about! And Spock does want his friendships, he comes around to them in the films and enjoys his time more than in tos. It's character growth, but it does show me that he was lonely during tos
Dance Monkey - it sounds like a stretch, but you gotta change the dance for me line to mean perform for me rather than literally have a groove. It's putting forward a false self!
