timaeus222 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Here's something interesting... what music would you classify as "hot", "warm", "room temperature", "cool", and "cold", and at about what temperature? I'm not kidding. Post your picks! Here are some of mine: https://soundcloud.com/zircon-1/ice-lock (77 K, BP of liquid N2) Icy textures with the bells, lush reverb http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02176 (115 K, FP of Freon Refrigerant R-12) Lush reverb, distant, bright textures http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01977 (194.5 K, FP of dry ice) Cool chiffy lead and ambient pads, breathy ear candy, smooth chords http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01316 (373 K, desert) Literal desert ReMix. Some possible criteria: - Textures - Source tune setting (e.g. MegaMan Zero 3 - Snowy Plains = cold place) - Mix title - Lyrics Doesn't have to be an OC ReMix. Any music goes.

Skrypnyk Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I had done something like this when I asked about winter themed music. Created a 25 track playlist of winter and spring so far, but they aren't very video game related.Share? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 Can be any music, not just OCR or video games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supercoolmike Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I don't have any examples atm but the way I think of a song being cool or hot is dependant on whats happenin to my body. If I'm getting a chill running through my spine when listening to a song, then its cold. If I'm getting super pumped and hyped when listening to a song, then Its gettin hot!

sci Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 yeah temperature is all well and good but you should probably also take in to consideration the humidity, warmth provided by sunlight, and wind speed. I divide my music into drinks (instead of temperature) so...i'll just shuffle a few of those around and pull examples: Brand New Retro - This Hazy Place http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01818 this is slightly warm, maybe 75F? but it's humid af, and with no movement in the air. no sunlight to warm you in this case (btw, filed under: elixir) Masuda Toshio - Shinen slightly cool, maybe around 60F, maybe lower not really humid, but not dry either. very gentle breeze. no sunlight (overcast). (filed under: belle thé) Seefeel - Dead Guitars this is about as hot as songs get, with my perception. 115F, possibly more. dry af. slight breeze but not in a way that alleviates the heat (filed under: black tea) Willbe - Zephyr ~40F. warm winter weather, so to speak. dry but not completely. almost no wind, and the sun warms your body a little. (filed under: green tea) Mosaik - Plateau welcome to below freezing. this is pretty near 0F dry, slight breeze, overcast (filed under: iced tea) Groove Armada - Hands of Time nice summer day, ~80F slight breeze, very low humidity, sunny. (filed under: sweet tea) most of my music forgoes temperature and instead becomes a vista of some sort, I think :S for science, here's my perception of your tunes: zircon - ice lock cold but not that cold, jeez hovering right below freezing, 25F or so. sunny day, fairly dry, almost no breeze. it's like a very large castle next to a frozen lake. zircon - Picolescence well above freezing. 50F maybe? it's a place near water, just before sunset...with a noticeable breeze. Joshua Morse - Morse's Morsecode not really apt to place a temperature to imo, but I'd say it's near room temperature. Darkesword - Stranger in the Desert ~50F but with no humidity, I guess? dunno this one's not really conjuring a temperature either lol. more like a vast open field at a high latitude, so the sun is low even though it's noon. (whoops this is a way too long post and I only added 1 ocr tune oh well) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrypnyk Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Some of the tracks I would substitute for something else, as I was doing the spring playlist I thought some of these tunes would fit better there but it was kinda difficult coming up with 25 songs from 25 different artists. 01/25 Erik Satie - Gymnopédie No.1 02/25 Thomas Newman - Arose 03/25 DJ Krush - Dig This Vibe 04/25 o9 - No Delay For Days 05/25 Daft Punk - Nightvision 06/25 Ludwig van Beethoven - Piano Sonata No.14 'Moonlight' (Movement 1) 07/25 Sigur Ros - Untitled #1 (Vaka) 08/25 Aphex Twin - Flim https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhHkUg-QCwk 09/25 Tim Tetlow - Cyrenic 10/25 Them Stars - Turquoise 11/25 Cex - I Said It Knowing Full Well I Had No Intention of Doing It 12/25 Frédéric François Chopin - Nocturne Op.9 No.2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGRO05WcNDk 13/25 Dave Wise - Stickerbush Symphony https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73n7HTcmb5g 14/25 Oneohtrix Point Never - Cryo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDEkafR05zM 15/25 Boards of Canada - Turquoise Hexagon Sun https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoYNn_nptJs 16/25 Le Knight Club- Chérie D'Amoure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vC4aQw-S6E 17/25 Venetian Snares - Hiszekeny https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRiyk-8LV5o 18/25 Claude Debussy - Clair de lune https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvFH_6DNRCY 19/25 Mum - On The Old Mountain Radio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpqROK7cFmk 20/25 Cassius - Interlude https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0X7SRoc7nKc 21/25 Skrypnyk - Closed Circle https://soundcloud.com/skrypnyk/closed-circle 22/25 Mr. Scruff - Jazz Potato https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmOArLdg9d4 23/25 DJ Shadow - Midnight in a Perfect World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH5He9TW0mE 24/25 Clark - Night Knuckles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgDu1zJVD3g 25/25 Wolfgang Amagaus Mozart - Piano Sonata No.11 'Alla Turca' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VZK4zkDWJ4 No way of disabling video embedding?

Jakos Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 For me: the "cold" music are usually music that is made with high to middle pitch tones and loooonger notes, like ambient music, and the "hot" or let's say hotter music for me uses more middle to low pitch tones and more continuous and shorter to medium notes. Also the scales and instrumentation makes a difference. Edit : Some examples come to my mind. Example of Hot : RO OST - Desert (duh) Example of Cold : Sonic Adventure OST - Limestone Cave Take a look on the lenght of the notes and the instrumention.

A-RoN Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I find myself listening to "Get Lucky" or any of Daft Punk's newer songs during summertime when it's hot outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
