Give a listen to “Music inspired by the snowgoose” by camel.
They were a psychedelic /progressive rock band from the UK who wanted to write an album based on a short story called The snowgoose. The author wasn’t a fan, unbelievably, so they scratched the lyrics and added “music inspired by” to the album title. The whole album is a journey that I can’t recommend enough!
I can imagine, but you can do it! :)
Thanks for the kind words! I’ve been battling with it for around a year now or maybe a little longer. I suspect long covid, because it basically followed a hefty period of brain fog after a covid infection, but therapy and supplements help immensely :)
I’m running the pre-made campaign season of ghosts as a first time GM. It’s an Asian themed mystical horror setting and it does a good job of guiding me through it as I don’t have that much experience running games yet.
The only thing that is a little debatable is the difficulty of the fights, which are intended to be on the easier/very easier side, which I don’t really like, so I’m adjusting the fights, but I have five players and it is written for four, so that makes it even harder to gauge, as well as some variant rules we use that make the PCs a little stronger.
Until now, the PCs steamrolled pretty much every fight and boss fight, but yesterday I upped the difficulty dramatically and it was a really exciting boss battle! So I think I’m finally getting a grasp on gauging the difficulty better
I overcame my social anxiety today and went to the office after a long period of sickness and it was great! I really missed seeing other people than my wife for a change! :D In the evening I ran my pathfinder campaign and it went really well, save for some hiccups from foundry, which is the online tool that we are using, so maybe an 8?
2000 - 2010’s indie rock/pop like the kooks, mando diao, vampire weekend, etc
A friend recommended pitchfork yesterday to me. Haven’t gotten around to it though
Metal gear solid 3 is IMO one of the best games ever made

You could give Italo Disco a try, which is a predecessor to synthwave and a lot of electronic dance music.
A contemporary niche cousin that I liked to listen to a few years back is giallo disco, which is a contemporary imitation of dark synth music inspired by 80s Italian horror movies.
From there I progressed to trance and house, acid techno and other synth heavy dance music genres.
