PlutoDelic Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 i'd like to ask for the vice versa... i was looking at Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, precisely episode 9, and there is this phrase that i am so sure i've heard it on a track somewhere... Any new speculation as to who was behind this affair and the one 6 years ago is a waste of time. I've got a feeling that the key to unlocking the mystery can be found when we ask ourselves what factor gave rise to the event in the past and the string of phenomena which occurred immediately after this recent death threat. ps, the major is siiiiiiiick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlutoDelic Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 yea ive been aware of it but no, its not the one i was looking for... the text quoted is actually very CLEAR and its around the PAUSE/BREAK of the track. i can bet it was something darkish...

frozen dream Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 closest thing to cyberpunk and goa to me is: semsis/menis darshan tim schuldt lapsus dunno if that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybernetika Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I completely second Darshan, Semsis and Tim Schuldt, those are also very good suggestions imo. My main suggestion however would be the album "unstable" by Slide. It has the grittiness and punkish attitude. just check out these tracks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TZFVY3ZoOQ another BIG tip (no one seems to know him) is Jujouka, pure cyberpunk IMO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lidU21agWgc quirk also fits: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jp9Kdx9P_JM some old x-dream maybe? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuHe7ibXNYQ more random tips: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11uVmjvvb-w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haoj9OXCIL0 (PSYBREAKS FUCK YES) Honestly I think that this is a vague question because only few tracks have an explicit cyberpunk theme - Most of the tracks I would label as cyberpunk simply evoke some kind of cyberpunk images in my mind.

karan129 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Two tracks that give me the cyberpunk feel but aren't explicitly cyberpunk... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUpFzs91sdg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8N4vm7jweuM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psymetal&bass Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I might be completely missing the point here because I don't know how a track can feel Cyberpunk? Industrial influences? Bladerunner samples? Anyway, here are my stabs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McFYOgfMHNc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbcLOY7NGBo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouroboros Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 absolum has a psyberpunk kind of feel...especially the track - "hologram" manibus - virus (is a really good track imo) migt qualify...but really only because of the title and the fact that is a little edgier. meh...cyberpunk is really the realm of ebm and industrial. theres just too much "spirituality" in psytrance....and not quite enough trans-humanism (although im not sure why) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

venohm Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Digital Loop – Celestial Transistors (2009) - monotonous, robotic & electric music. I think it falls under the category of cyberрunk. I'd also like to recommend the 'Deus Ex: Human Revolution' score though it's not trancey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepXcode Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) MFG 'Overload' 'Enter.' 'Access denied.' 'Access granted.' From the movie 'The Lawnmower Man' PS. Just listened to this track via /0 online radio and the samples reminded me The Lawnmower Man movie. I've checked then psydb and appeared to be just right PS2. And another track that feets this: Toï Doï - Replicant There seem to be no psydb entry for this, but it seems to me that it is from Blade Runner movie. Also, seems like whole Toï Doï - Technologic album matches by looking on it's name and the cover!

My link Cyberpunk is a postmodern and science fiction genre noted for its focus on "high tech and low life." The name was originally coined byBruce Bethke as the title of his short story "Cyberpunk," published in 1983. It features advanced science, such as information technologyand cybernetics, coupled with a degree of breakdown or radical change in the social order. Cyberpunk works are well situated within postmodern literature. Cyberpunk plots often center on a conflict among hackers, artificial intelligences, and megacorporations, and tend to be set in a near-futureEarth, rather than the far-future settings or galactic vistas found in novels such as Isaac Asimov's Foundation or Frank Herbert's Dune. The settings are usually post-industrial dystopias but tend to be marked by extraordinary cultural ferment and the use of technology in ways never anticipated by its creators ("the street finds its own uses for things"). Much of the genre's atmosphere echoes film noir, and written works in the genre often use techniques from detective fiction. "Classic cyberpunk characters were marginalized, alienated loners who lived on the edge of society in generally dystopic futures where daily life was impacted by rapid technological change, an ubiquitous datasphere of computerized information, and invasive modification of the human body." – Lawrence Person The science-fiction editor Gardner Dozois is generally acknowledged as the person who popularized the use of the term "cyberpunk" as a kind of literature, although Minnesota writerBruce Bethke coined the term in 1980 for his short story "Cyberpunk," which was published in the November 1983 issue of Amazing Science Fiction Stories. The term was quickly appropriated as a label to be applied to the works of William Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Pat Cadigan and others. Of these, Sterling became the movement's chief ideologue, thanks to hisfanzine Cheap Truth. John Shirley wrote articles on Sterling and Rucker's significance. William Gibson with his novel Neuromancer (1984) is likely the most famous writer connected with the term cyberpunk. He emphasized style, a fascination with surfaces, and atmosphere over traditional science-fiction tropes. Regarded as ground-breaking and sometimes as "the archetypal cyberpunk work," Neuromancer was awarded the Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Awards. After Gibson's popular debut novel, Count Zero (1986) and Mona Lisa Overdrive (1988) followed. According to the Jargon File, "Gibson's near-total ignorance of computers and the present-day hacker culture enabled him to speculate about the role of computers and hackers in the future in ways hackers have since found both irritatingly naïve and tremendously stimulating." Early on, cyberpunk was hailed as a radical departure from science-fiction standards and a new manifestation of vitality. Shortly thereafter, however, many critics arose to challenge its status as a revolutionary movement. These critics said that the SF New Wave of the 1960s was much more innovative as far as narrative techniques and styles were concerned. Furthermore, while Neuromancer's narrator may have had an unusual "voice" for science fiction, much older examples can be found: Gibson's narrative voice, for example, resembles that of an updated Raymond Chandler, as in his novel The Big Sleep (1939). Others noted that almost all traits claimed to be uniquely cyberpunk could in fact be found in older writers' works—often citing J. G. Ballard, Philip K. Dick, Harlan Ellison, Stanisław Lem, Samuel R. Delany, and even William S. Burroughs. For example, Philip K. Dick's works contain recurring themes of social decay, artificial intelligence, paranoia, and blurred lines between objective and subjective realities, and the influential cyberpunk movie Blade Runner is based on one of his books. Humans linked to machines are found in Pohl and Kornbluth's Wolfbane (1959) and Roger Zelazny's Creatures of Light and Darkness (1968). In 1994, scholar Brian Stonehill suggested that Thomas Pynchon's 1973 novel Gravity's Rainbow "not only curses but precurses what we now glibly dub cyberspace." Other important predecessors include Alfred Bester's two most celebrated novels, The Demolished Man and The Stars My Destination, as well as Vernor Vinge's novella True Names. Science-fiction writer David Brin describes cyberpunk as "the finest free promotion campaign ever waged on behalf of science fiction." It may not have attracted the "real punks," but it did ensnare many new readers, and it provided the sort of movement that postmodern literary critics found alluring. Cyberpunk made science fiction more attractive to academics, argues Brin; in addition, it made science fiction more profitable to Hollywood and to the visual arts generally. Although the "self-important rhetoric and whines of persecution" on the part of cyberpunk fans were irritating at worst and humorous at best, Brin declares that the "rebels did shake things up. We owe them a debt." Cyberpunk further inspired many professional writers who were not among the "original" cyberpunks to incorporate cyberpunk ideas into their own works, such as George Alec Effinger'sWhen Gravity Fails. Wired magazine, created by Louis Rossetto and Jane Metcalfe, mixes new technology, art, literature, and current topics in order to interest today’s cyberpunk fans, which Paula Yoo claims "proves that hardcore hackers, multimedia junkies, cyberpunks and cellular freaks are poised to take over the world."
