Cowboy Bebop has great sound design. Personally quite fond of Paranoia Agent's sound work as well. Mushishi has a cool ambient vibe.

Macross does have good music, but the limited soundtrack means that you better like what you hear or else you'll be getting real annoyed real quick. Shao Pailan from the first one turned to shit for me once she got to the evil chaser line.

I was under the impression that /mu/ only liked the type of music that wouldn't fit as a soundtrack for something. Like being a soundtrack necessitates a lack of substance because otherwise it would overpower the media it's suppose to complement.

>>153553214

nice meme list

Kekkai Sensen

Serial Experiments Lain has the best music of any anime. Perfect OP, perfect ED, just great use of wild guitar parts and electronic ambiance. Nothing comes close IMO.

ctrl+f......no Samurai Champloo...Nujabes is rolling over in his grave you weebs.

Welcome to the nhk.

>>153553205
Probably not the most appealing but Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt had a nice mix of EDM with TeddyLoid doing most of the music. EP had a solid 80s feel, and See Through still gets me pumped up when I'm doing my laps on the track.

All in all most anime have one decent track, somes have one really good track, even fewer have multiple good ones

>>153553205
FMA 2003

>>153555782
Bish please, Champloo wasn't even his best work. Go eat a magic brownie one day then listen to the entirety of Moda Soul it'll leave you speechless

>>153555782
>>153556338
Nujabes' work with Fat Jon on Champloo is good but it REALLY isn't where you want to stop. There's a lot better stuff out there, go listen through his discography, I promise you'll like it.

I don't usually care about OST. There are a few that made at least some impression on me though. The only two I can think of right now are .hack//sign and Noir. I think they stand out for me because I fucking hated both series a lot and thought OST were the only redeeming qualities

>>153553452
/mu/ really isn't a particular subset of tastes, it's not even just metalfags vs p4k/tnd gaylords

Also the fact that Ennio Morricone exists kind of completely refutes that second point, loads of the movies he's worked on totally hang on his music

>>153556396
Dude I know most people start off with Moda Soul first from a /mu/sician's perspective. Mellow beats rubs some people the wrong way

He's really not some de facto instrumental hip hop artist

>>153556533
Yeah, /mu/tant and musician here, agreed. I do stand by that his discography is worth digging more into though.

Sakamichi no Apollon did all of its music right.

4 episodes into Sora no Woto and they had some nice moments so far.

>>153553205
Ironically Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. Between the stand names, and the anime it take a certain kind of je ne sais quoi to pull of what it does, nevermind the quality of (most) of the OPs and EPs.

And dont even get me started on what its influenced.....

Impossible to list just one, here's a few:
Kaiji, Death Note and really anything by Hideki taniuchi.
Sora no Woto.
Noir.
Anything by Yuki Kajiura or Kenji Kawai.
EoE OST.
Kaiba.
Champloo and Bebop.

I'm probably forget many.

>>153556514
No but alot of hipsterfaggots lord over the scene there with a level of smug that can rival /v/.

Plastic. Pitchfork. Pussies.

Detroit Metal , no contest.

Gintama does alot of good stuff.

/v/ isn't really smug, /a/ would fit that description better imo. /v/ is just sheer and pure hatred towards everything.

>>153557270
DMC is excellent at what it does but its still super niche.

>>153553205
I suppose it's an obvious choice but Initial D.

Matter of perspective I suppose but yea that defines it better. /mu/ has that hatred there but it comes out as snarky derisiveness similar to /v/. /a/ is just smug without malice most of the time, more for bantz and shitposting

I know /a/ dislikes positive opinions about Ghibli cause "muh entry level" bullshit, but tons of their stuff have really solid and memorable soundtracks. Hisaishi is the man

The rest of the ost is great too.

Initial d, praticularly first stage. Love the middle era eurobeat, the ost has that funky 90's synth, and the move and galla op/ed's where really good. Fourth stage onwards only really has good eurobeat, but even that starts to slip in fifth and final stages.

Putting aside what you think of the show and its fans, Kotaro Nakagawa makes a pretty swell soundtrack.

Nope and it never will unless S3 comes out.

Interstella 5555 is like cheating, though. The animation was put to the music's service in that case, it's more like a big ass music video than a proper anime.
