> Album - Artist
Pretty much anything Reuben/Jamie Lenman will do. The album below as a double disc masterpiece of both soft and hardcore songs.

Only because I know it so well.
Pretty much just Disc 1.
I also use a bunch of HDtracks stuff from various genres.

Cosmic Gate - Back 2 Back 4
Soviet anthem.
Immersion by Pendulum

Farinelli OST

Kikuohana's "Dai Ichi Maku".
Kikuo's a master at mastering. Sound stage and quality are excellently done; every instrument is clear and crisp.

>>61876692
Songs of Distant Earth
>>61879499
this but remain in light
>song start with a lush clean guitar playing arpeggios ranging for the lowest notes to the highest, and soft calming vocals
>gradually rises in intensity
>suddenly, a low chugging bass, orchestra, and drums kick in
>progresses into some ambient electronic music
>adds layers and layers of sounds until it's frantic screaming metal
>you're not even half way through the song yet
>ends with some circus music
So remind me why you're not using Devin Townsend as the default tester?
>>61883038
This thread actually isn't cancer.
Devin Townsend, pendulum, animals as leaders, someone making fun of death magnetic...
You listened. All is well father.
Modern music is pathetically individualist and bad
Listen to something classic and go away
