Please share spotify playlist with me.
Hello Commanders! I am looking for varied songlists to listen during my journey through the galaxy. It would be nice to have some referrals from the community. I'm currently listening to this one (rock and roll):

Tks for the help!

I don't usually listen to classical music but it goes with this game very well. I've learned quite a lot about it through listening to it while playing this as well.
Normally i like heavy and death metal but it just doesn't fit the pace of the game a lot of the time.. Better for fast pace shooters like Apex.

If immersion is what you're looking for anyway. Classical has always been the go to genre for all things space.

Not spotify, but if you like immersion then you can listen to one of the fanmade radio stations for Elite.

I like Radio Sidewinder the most because it's music fits the game very well and they have a really nice selection of lore friendly commercials and having the galnet news presented by fictitious presenters like "Computer Pete" or "Robot Rachel" is a great addition. Can't recommend it enough.

I also heard only good things about Lave Radio, but never really listen to it personally.

You can find a host of many Elite radio stations here to chose from:

Radio Sidewinder also available here:

All you need is Caravan Palace and Parov Stelar.

I could share some playlists I made depending on what kind of music you like.

Metal can still be good... good music is good music. But yeah it doesn't always evoke feelings of serenity and endless wonder. Some works better than others for that. Sometimes the music helps get you into the game, sometimes the game is an amusing thing to watch while you listen to music.

Just depends what you want. If you just want to listen to what you enjoy then yea Metal all the way. If you want to immerse yourself for a sense of serenity as you say, for me that would be something classical.
The main soundtrack for space odyssey is obviously great for a moment of reveal. You can sort of imagine the part where the song drops as a Thargoid presents itself. Drama lol

Not Spotify, but still an epic soundtrack for any space game... Some oldies will remember this:

(link to playlist of all the tracks from Colony Wars).

And if you want to find more music by the same guy (he's the guy responsible for a LOT of well known/liked game soundtracks over the years, Wipeout, Lemmings, Sensible Soccer, Shadow of the Beast, Spellbound, Crazy Ivan etc...), his website is http://www.coldstorage.org.uk/

When I used to play EVE, I would listen to Zombi. Prog rock that seems to fit well in space.
