The cherry grove town song from Pokemon silver or gold is dope, perfect sipping fare
Tarrey Town theme from Breath of the Wild
The Psychonauts soundtracks, either the first or second game, but I’d say moreso the first one. About a third of the songs are kinda country twangy instrumentals because the game takes place in a summer camp. They’re the perfect lazy summer day songs imo.
Especially the track Whispering Rock from the first games.
Finally got around to playing part 2 last week and it’s phenomenal. The soundtrack in part two has the perfect blend of campy secret agent themes and the summer camp nostalgia vibes.
I love all the spy ones like Loboto Interior Sneak, Landing At The Luctopus, and Casino Hallway Sneak. Honorable mention for Here’s How it’s Done.
But imo the combat music in Psychonauts 2 is where the soundtrack really shines. I mean just listen to A Little Fight Music, Lady Luctopus, Panic Attack, Fight in the Library, and pretty much any boss music from the second one. Each track is so punchy and energetic.
Any (or all!) of the tracks from the original Sims soundtrack.
The ending song to the first Portal
Her voice and inflection was so perfect, like Siri level
The fragrance of dark coffee from Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney (especially the insaneintherain cover: https://youtu.be/UBy5qquWcEg ).
Anything by Nobuo Uematsu
Deus Ex Human Revolution soundtrack hits just right for me.
oh that’s probably perfect
Tim Follin makes good music. Try the NES Pictionary theme song and if you like that Solstice theme song will blow you away.
Basically anything from Jim Guthrie’s soundtrack for Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery. It’s such a vibe
- Alto’s Adventure Soundtrack (which is driven by the composer of the band Lydian Collective)
- Machinarium Soundtrack (Floex / Tomas Dvorak)
Both are IMHO absolutely the perfect amount of “bright chill” you want for an early coffee
Tomb Raider Legend Manor Theme for example.
Can’t go wrong here.
Super Castlevania IV SNES
Specially “The Cave”
Octopath Traveller 2 has a pretty great OST, especially this one:
