Getting my new players into shadowrun and we finally finished CharGen last sunday. We've a Rigger (not a dwarf), Magi-Medic, Small ball of evil magic (magi with neoteny), A social adept (who's already proven his worth), and a Silent Adept, and......Sonny The Legbreaker (he's okay with that).

I'm using from Dusk Til Dawn in the background for that rather offbeat ambiance. Mixed in on the Techno Front I'm also using Collide and Covenant and a bit of Lacrimosa.

Trying to figure out what to use as i'm going to have a slow and creeping influence into the city of dark and rather bloody incidents (really a result of Aztechnology's Blood Sacrificing starting to distort the local area in ways that are not immediately obvious.

Suggestions for music?

Muzak. It's been found to improve productivity in Corporate Drones.

My productivity would go from good to homicidal if they muzak.... good music slowed down and played by a bored orchastra... just offends on such a viceral level I would want to turn the place into a charnel house...

Apparently it also increases the productivity of Shadowrunners, too! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

The Ghost in the Shell SAC soundtracks have some nice pieces, if you go for the electronic. I personally love the chanting pieces of the Otomo movie, but that's not to everyone's taste.

Personally, I think mood music should reflect whatever type of campaign you play. NuMetal and stuff from the Matrix/Blade/Other Grimdark Movies may fit well with a more violent, pink mohawk game. GitS SAC for a calmer game. 80s hair metal also may be useful, as well as Jedi Mind Tricks, all depending on what type of campaign you play. I have playlists made up of horror movie and game soundtracks too - Fear, Resident Evil, Dead Space. As a default, I play mostly to the soundtracks of 28 days/weeks later these days.

And here's something for the big and horrible eerie moment(s).

And while I'm at posting music, I can see this being played during a chase in the same way as Yakety Sax.

The Quake soundtrack by Trent Reznor/Nine Inch Nails is great for menacing ambiance. Darkspace creates some pretty nightmarish space themed black metal, and it's all available free on their website. If you really wanna freak your players out there's always this.

Scott Walker's later work (1978-present) is some choice stuff for moving near-dischord.
