Cowboy bebop is awesome.
RWBY’s OST has no business being as good as it is.
The Mandalorian OST is great too.
Also a mention for One Punch Man OST, specifically Genos’s theme, my man looks like a total badass and his theme really complements the fights right up until he lets his guard down and gets flattened every fucking time.
Battlestar Galactica! All of the themes for the various characters fit really well, and the taiko-style drums during space battles, which at first might seem stylistically a bit strange, work amazingly well to amp up the sense of urgency.
I loved their version of “All Along the Watchtower”
The drums add crazzzzy tension to those battles and totally capture the “Well, I guess now we have to wait a whole 45 seconds before that giant salvo of missiles we can all see clear-as-crystal closes in another 2 clicks towards our position and absolutely nukes us” vibe of it all.
I’ve always thought that BSG’s combat scoring was influenced by the combat music from the OG Homeworld game, which itself is ultra loosely based on the 70’s BSG show.
Twin Peaks. Lots of mood. The revival had several musical guests, too.
Angelo Badalamenti is super talented 🎶
Scrubs
I liked the ukulele songs about all the states.
Samurai Champloo has a good soundtrack.
The opening theme to “Taxi.”
Probably Michael Giacchino’s score for the show Lost. I felt like I was watching a movie. If we’re talking about anime, then Evan Call’s score for Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End
Mr. ROBOT and Westworld have some amazing scores aside from the cover versions they provide.
Mr Robot’s soundtrack is awesome, I remember the agonizing years waiting for the final volume to come out through all the red tape
Absolutely worth it
The various versions of paint it black are fucking fantastic.
Black Sails
I really like the theme song and musical setting of Firefly. I’m not as hyped about the story now as I once was, but the music is still great.
Here’s what I think of that
FLCL season 1
Puella Magi Madoka Magicka
Severance was pretty solid
+1 for FLCL. The Pillows rock.
Ride on shooting star
FLCL? It’s fun to dereference initialisms the first time you mention them.
It isn’t an initialism, that’s just what it’s called.
It’s old but for a long time The Wonder Years supposedly couldn’t be released on home video because there were so many music licenses to get clearance for.
I wish they kept doing shows like that. Every ten years, try to make a decent, smart, earnest show about teenagers living twenty years prior.
Freaks and Geeks
Generally the only TV show I ever really think about the music for is Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Sick intro theme, and my all time favorite episode of anything is Once More, With Feeling, the musical episode.
Max Richter and his score for The Leftovers is great.
Second someone else mention Westworld, which is the same composer as GoT: Ramin Djawadi
There’s others I very much enjoy but these two are worth commenting
The Drew Carey show
Livin in sin with a safety pin 🎶
yeah all the versions were great and I in particular liked the five o clock world opening.
