You should hear the version of Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft on The Langley Schools Music Project. It's ace. :D

You know who I'd love to VLM to?

Godspeed You! Black Emperor. You know it makes sense.

(Also Four Tet, Ulrich Schnauss, Boards of Canada, My Bloody Valentine, Sigur Ros, and Mogwai - but mainly GYBE!).

Errr... Do you have any specific song in mind ? Moya might sound a little overdramatic.

As far as the Constellation crew is concerned, I'd rather see some Do Make Say Think in Unity. But then again I'm such a DMST fanboy :P

As far as your list is concerned, I have to agree with Sigur Ros : it would definately fit : D.

Gathering Storm, really (track 1 on Levez!). I think the screamingly intense stuff *would* work with VLM3.5, as long as you don't value your retinae too highly :)

Ah... Dunno about Gathering storm, images of a thousand scottish blokes with custom bagpipes always leap to my mind when I listen to it.
EDIT : by the way, I do not mean to hurt the feelings of scottish people. I truly *love* the song.

The Lift your skinny fist crescendo might be great though.

Acro - Fuse and I were talking about VLMing to Godspeed, recently. I'd like to do Slow Riot - if only for the two massive changes which kick into the main riff. HooHOhOhOhoooo, I can imagine the rush of cranking up the psychedelic preset and then JUST at the change, switching to a bit of a tunnel rush.

Although it is a long song, might not fit the 'levels' in unity, I would like to see Echoes from Pink Floyd. If anyone ever played Echoes to "Jupiter And Beyond The Infinite" from 2001: A Space Odyssey, they would know what I am talking about. :D

I really like to have some of The Mars Volta. Same Problem as with Pink Floyd though regarding the level structure. Still would be great.

I think a very wise (and interesting) choice would be for Lionhead/Llamasoft to hire Angelo Badalamenti to do a complete soundtrack exclusively for UNITY.

The man put 70% of the atmosphere into TWIN PEAKS and has no problem collaborating with the likes of Orbital.

This move would further underline the fact that UNITY is a grade A quality product.

ooh Orbital's ace version of the Dr. Who theme tune would make for an interesting level, you could even do the unity tunnels in a Dr.Who stylee. :twisted:

There's always classical stuff to consider, if it hasn't been mentioned. I'd like to hear "Mars" from The Planets, as well as perhaps Rite of Spring and a few similar things. I think the odd syncopations used in these pieces could make for some very interesting visuals/gameplay.

More conventional bands include:

St. Germaine (jazz with a hint of techno)
Tool (everyone's favorite modern acid rock band)
Squarepusher (some of the craziest drum and bass ever)
Jamiroquai (acid jazz=like disco except not teh suxxors!)
It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Hello,
I`m new to the forum so I have to introduce myself. I`m 28yrs. old student for aviaton and spacecraft technology. My hobbies are music, science, sports & gaming. I enjoyed playing tempest 2000 and X3 for years because gameplay, music and effects were awsome for 1994.
I hope Unity will have an intuitive gameplay like that, too.
Songs I would realy enjoy to hear from are:

Astral Projection (maybe Dancing Galaxy, Nilaya or Heavens`s Gate)
Juno Reactor (Stuff from Beyond the Infinite like Feel the Universe or Rotorblade)
Chemical Brothers (Test)
Groove Armada....

I think thats enough for the moment :wink:
