Here's a small thread of some of my favorite songs I've used for background atmosphere & important scenes while GMing #AlphaKingAcademy...
You can't have a game about super powered teens without them fighting to the song "Power". Kanye may be a lost cause but this song is a forever bop.
I've made my feelings known on this movie before, I have a big problem with it. But dammit if the track "First Class" by Henry Jackman from X-Men: First Class didn't set the tone for the heroic nature of the game. Great song.
"Heroes" by Peter Gabriel (David Bowie cover) was used to great effect when it was revealed a character died. This one is really good at squeezing those tears out.
A LOT of Hans Zimmer gets used in my games, the man is a genius. But his track "Supermarine" from Dunkirk probably gets used the most for a ton of intense & suspenseful situations.
The "Something I Can Never Have" cover from Westworld gets used a lot when villains have a monologue & a player is about to find out some hard sad truths.
