Cyberpunk Soundtrack

+
I have a suggestion regarding the music/soundtrack of the game. I am currently watching the Netflix series Travelers, which features an amazing soundtrack by Vancouver-based composer Adam Lastiwka. The style is reminiscent of sci-fi game music such as Mass Effect (the first one, by Sam Hulick) and Deus Ex: Human Revolution (by Michael McCann), combining various instruments with synths for a futuristic sound that fits the series well and I believe it would fit Cyberpunk 2077 as well. His webpage is www.adamlastiwka.com and you can also hear some of his stuff (including the Travelers soundtrack) on SoundCloud - here's two examples:

well... two soundtracks styles that would suit CP 2077 really well are Batman Beyond OST, and Psycho-Pass's OST


...So, what do you guys think ?
 
as gritty as this universe may be, I'd be surprised if it didn't have something as grotesquely saccharine as hafdis huld as a vocaloid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HW9Z-_nFPBU

or oszibarack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NOJHQH1NPA

I think the original version of "Hurt" (found at the bottom of the post) would probably fit Cyberpunk better though, atleast when you consider how the song sounds. Cash's cover would fit better in a sort of Western type of a thing, atleast to me... which is why I think it works so well for the Logan movie. As mentioned part of it is due to how the song sounds... but it is also partly due to that the meaning of the song sort of changes depending on which version it is, where I think Trents version again fits Cyberpunk better then Cash's version does.


As for other songs...

The lyrics of some of Marilyn Manson song fits in my mind to something like Cyberpunk. Soundwise I feel that most Manson songs fits actually. But then I am biased, since I have always felt that goth-like (music which I for one reason or another feel/seem/think is to some degree or another "gothic"... but might not actually be it in the actual sence of the word... XD ), and/or "darker" kinds of metal like this, seems to fit with something like Cyberpunk.

And the 4th and final song. from a group called "And One", is compleatly due to the name (Panzermensch), and some of the lyrics (which I don't really know, since I do not speak German... but some words I can sort of understand due to either Swedish or English words which are simmilar... so I am only guessing at what it actually means... XD ). I know that Panzermensch means "Tank Man/Human"... which I think fits very well for those highly augmented tank like dudes in a Cyberpunk setting. XD


Nine Inch Nails - Hurt
Marilyn Manson - Killing Strangers
Marilyn Manson - The Nobodies
And One - Panzermensch

This song's lyrics is perfect for CyberPunk:

"In twenty seventy or so
Tenements on fire
Blazing through endless nights
And behind every spy hole
Car wrecks and barbwire
Dirty streets and knife fights"

Another song that should be in Cyberpunk because of the lyrics alone:

"In version 1.0
I've just begun
In 1.2
So much better, better than you
It's incredible
It's compatible
Oh so critical
It's almost beautiful

In 1.3
A self aware entity
In 1.5
No soul but oh so alive

One Dream
One Vision
The state of perfection"
