For all the sounds of the future, including Synthwave, Cyberpunk, Sci Fi Metal, Space Ambient, Sci fi Soundtracks, or really anything with a sci fi theme.

You can post from any source that isn't a bootleg (please respect copyright -- most artists working in this space need the income). Preferably, however, bandcamp or a similar source where advertising is kept to a minimum and you have the option to directly support the artist. YouTube versions should be avoided unless it is the artists' own channels, or are directly endorsed by the artist or their label. If posting Spotify, Apple Music, or similar source that requires a subscription, please try to find a subscription free alternative preferably, unless there is no option.

Self-promotion is allowed, but please be transparent about it.

I'm not entirely sure, but this appears to be a thing

Euan Ellis - Levitation (xpanse.bandcamp.com)
submitted 2 years ago by [email protected] to c/spacemusic
 
 

Some of this artist's stuff is more space-y sounding than others, but it's all pretty good chillwave.

The label, Cryo Chamber, is absolutely amazing for space ambient!

Arpitect - Rise (rossocorsarecords.bandcamp.com)

Just going through tracks I'd favorited, thought this one fit here.

I've found a lot of artists here that I really like over the years. Very chill.

There are a number of tracks that exist in the movie that weren't released, but this is most of it. And it is very good sci fi music!

Youtube playlist created by the composer

Carefully treading around my own piracy rules here -- this one was never officially released by the record label, so the composer dumped the wave files online.

Tweet announcing release

Thank you to everyone that supported the score to Ghost in The Shell. Through out the year we have released music to the film but as it’s the season of good cheer, here is a link to the full quality recordings . Happy New Year .

Original direct download link from Lorne, wav format, now defunct 654 MB .zip, 20 tracks

I converted those wav files to flac and added the appropriate metadata and have created a torrent to rehost it. As far as I can tell, this should be okay, as the artist released all of this publicly themselves originally.

Some real deep cut Space Ambient. Not particularly long as an album, but great to fall asleep to, reading your favourite sci fi. Can't even find a YouTube link for this one :)

VLA, by Carbon Based Lifeforms (carbonbasedlifeforms.bandcamp.com)
submitted 2 years ago by troyunrau to c/spacemusic
 
 

One album, one track, one hour. VLA: a tribute to the Very Large Array telescope. Ambient drone bliss. Recommended for falling asleep reading science fiction -- not for long road trips ;)

If you play space video games, you've probably heard of Stellaris. It has a very fine soundtrack which evokes exploration, wonder, and danger.

Officially available here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/492740/Stellaris_Complete_Soundtrack/ -- but you get a copy with the game as well (just find the files).

Space Trap. Yeah.

The whole album is great if you like the more harsh electronic sounds. Pay attention to details like rhythms on high hats.

Ashlands - 24bits, by CIRCULAR (ultimae.bandcamp.com)

One of my favourite tracks among so many possibilities on Ultimae records.

"The only place we exist is in your mind."

Here's the Artist's bandcamp and website - https://steampoweredgiraffe.bandcamp.com/album/the-vice-quadrant

One of my favorites to sing along to.

Oh, of all the things to go wrong while out in space...

Apple Music has it in lossless format for streaming, but I don't think you can buy it there: https://music.apple.com/ca/album/uta-i-making-of-cyborg/910532068?i=910532112&ls

There's an official vinyl available (except in Japan): https://wereleasewhateverthefuckwewantrecords.bandcamp.com/album/ghost-in-the-shell-original-soundtrack

All other sources seem to be CDs, or of questionable source probably ripped from the CD.

Hard to find space songs you can sing at karaoke, but many machines have this one.

Lost I Ft. Saimiri, by Hinkstep (hinkstep.bandcamp.com)
submitted 2 years ago by troyunrau to c/spacemusic
 
 

Hinkstep is the sort of music one might code by, if they were so inclined. This album isn't my favourite, but this track is extremely relevant so...

Legal, best quality purchase option: https://www.qobuz.com/ca-en/album/random-access-memories-daft-punk/0886443927087 -- this one isn't on Bandcamp.
