The cherry grove town song from Pokemon silver or gold is dope, perfect sipping fare

  • Alto’s Adventure Soundtrack (which is driven by the composer of the band Lydian Collective)
  • Machinarium Soundtrack (Floex / Tomas Dvorak)

Both are IMHO absolutely the perfect amount of β€œbright chill” you want for an early coffee

Tim Follin makes good music. Try the NES Pictionary theme song and if you like that Solstice theme song will blow you away.

The soundtrack from Risk of Rain 2 and Hades are my favorites atm.

The Tristram theme from Diablo always makes me want to stay a while and listen.

Start your day in Tarrey Town

"Cafe Ghibli" is also good over coffee, but that's bending the rules

not video game but gives me monster hunter/one piece vibes

IV. Allegro con fuoco - Dvorak (Symphony No. 9, 'From the New World')

[–] Hyphlosion@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

For me, it’s the Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack.

Interstate '76 soundtrack. You could also use a beer.

Anything by Nobuo Uematsu

Joke answer: Take You For a Ride from the Marvel Vs Capcom 2 OST.

[–] BmeBenji@lemm.ee 2 points 6 days ago

Basically anything from Jim Guthrie’s soundtrack for Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery. It’s such a vibe

I'm really liking some of the Wanderstop soundtrack from C418:

Octopath Traveller 2 has a pretty great OST, especially this one:

Anything from Grim Fandango

[–] Anissem@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

Man that takes me back. Full Throttle, Indiana Jones, Under a Killing Moon, so many great point and click adventure games from that time.

[–] cattywampas@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago

Tarrey Town theme from Breath of the Wild

[–] blimthepixie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The ending song to the first Portal

[–] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Her voice and inflection was so perfect, like Siri level

The Psychonauts soundtracks, either the first or second game, but I'd say moreso the first one. About a third of the songs are kinda country twangy instrumentals because the game takes place in a summer camp. They're the perfect lazy summer day songs imo.

Especially the track Whispering Rock from the first games.

[–] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Finally got around to playing part 2 last week and it’s phenomenal. The soundtrack in part two has the perfect blend of campy secret agent themes and the summer camp nostalgia vibes.

[–] Zahille7@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

I love all the spy ones like Loboto Interior Sneak, Landing At The Luctopus, and Casino Hallway Sneak. Honorable mention for Here's How it's Done.

But imo the combat music in Psychonauts 2 is where the soundtrack really shines. I mean just listen to A Little Fight Music, Lady Luctopus, Panic Attack, Fight in the Library, and pretty much any boss music from the second one. Each track is so punchy and energetic.

[–] Vinci@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Deus Ex Human Revolution soundtrack hits just right for me.

[–] BmeBenji@lemm.ee 2 points 6 days ago

oh that’s probably perfect

[–] ciapatri@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago

Any (or all!) of the tracks from the original Sims soundtrack.

[–] BlondeYeti@feddit.uk 3 points 1 week ago

The Cassette Beasts soundtrack is excellent and they've recently released some acoustic/live sessions. "Wherever we are now" would suit your theme perfectly.

[–] fragrantvegetable@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The fragrance of dark coffee from Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney (especially the insaneintherain cover: https://youtu.be/UBy5qquWcEg ).

Can't go wrong here.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Super Castlevania IV SNES

Specially "The Cave"
