This is Darkwave, electronic genre inspired by 80s goth. IMO essential Cyberpunk, but CD Projekt RED went for another direction for the game’s OST
Speaking of music, has anyone found anything that resembles a mix of jazz, techno, and punk? Hell of a mix, but I kinda wanted something cool for a campaign I’ll run in a custom setting, in New Orleans. At this point, even something with an energy similar to Samurai or Atari Teenage Riot but jazzy would be cool as a “soundtrack”.
I believe what you’re looking for, my friend, is something called jazzcore.
Thanks! Skeleton Quarter and Jü sound like what I’m after. Hopefully it won’t be too dissonant for my table.
I’ll also add Naked City and a lot of other stuff John Zorn is involved in.
I dunno if this is what you’re looking for, but clowncore may be close?

ETA: Totally forgot about Jojo Mayer & Nerve, too. Might be a little more sane of a choice depending on who your players are, lmao
Both of these recs are honestly great, Jojo Mayer in particular would be great as a theme if I slow it down some. Thanks!
Awesome! Definitely check out all of Nerve’s stuff. They got a pretty big back catalogue, and the energy varies.
