Old World Radio for Fallout 4 is the best radio I have yet come across. Ice Cream Carl is the best DJ! I will die on this hill.

I've played New Vegas so much that I can now actually just sing along to half the songs in the game.

I've got a decent baritone voice, I can do Big Iron, Blue Moon, Heartaches by the Number, Jingle Jangle Jingle, whistle the solos, etc.

Butcher Pete from FO3 is also quite fun to sing, haha!

And of course: I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire.

And and, I dunno if These Boots Are Made For Walkin' made it into a Fallout game, but it very much seems to fit, and I taught myself to sing a baritone version of it.

Also you'd really think Hound Dog and Heartbreak Hotel would fit in, but I guess nobody can afford the licensing rights, hah!

But yeah I'm gonna say Mr. New Vegas is my favorite dj from the series... much better voice synthesis than our modern day, newfangled LLMs, Mr. House has some kinda trick up his sleeve, as usual.

We got self-refferential 'chuck norris' jokes:

"You know, I tried to measure my Charisma on a Vit-o-matic Vigor Tester once. The machine burst into flames."

... and a comforting, soft yet commanding voice, telling you:

"It's me again, Mr. New Vegas, reminding you that you're nobody 'til somebody loves you. And that somebody is me. I love you."

<3

You know how I know you're telling the truth?

Well... it's a sin, to tell a lie.

I've bought so many old records due to the fallout series... Damned be their music selection

E: GTA got me listening to K-DST day and night as well

In all fairness, I have GTA 4 to thank for introducing me to LCD Soundsystem, so, also very very good, just... kinda harder to sing along to, so much of their music is incredible soundscapes.

Different flavors of awesome.

Oh that reminds me!

Don't think this counts as an in game radio station...

But holy shit, PayDay 2's entire cumulative soundtrack at this point.

If you wanna do something high octane, turn that shit on, you will be amped.

For sure Payday had bangers, it's been a while though I'll be listening soon. As for high octane shit it's always been an easy win for the Doom series for me

[โ€“] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 11 hours ago

Oh I mean, Doom's OSTs have had so many good songs, I didn't even think to mention to mention it lol, its like the basline from which 'intense frenetic action' is measured lol.

I'm listening to Fallout radio so much, Spotify Wrapped said that my listening age is 100.

[โ€“] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 19 hours ago

Ah, so thats what 'old soul' means, hahah!

[โ€“] frizzo@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Fallout music has been the weakest part of any of the series, I use to pop out the disc after the game loaded and play CDs in the originals. Thhhhhhrrrrrreeeeee Doooooggggg if your out there vault looter pick up some music that doesn't stink up the room.

[โ€“] Maiq@piefed.social 6 points 1 day ago

I really like rockabilly and 50's music in general. Love classical music! Liszt, Debussy, Chopin, Brahms, Strauss, Wagner, really a great lineup.

But OWR brought so much to the table. Ali-G, Schwarzenegger, Bobcat, as radio hosts. NIN instrumental, synthwave bangers, Twilight Zone, Peewees Playhouse, 8-Bit Hits.

I still just put on SynthstreamFM youtube and code for 7 hours and put it on again.

Icecream Carls hatred for Machoman's antics, his love of Trashcan Carla the Commonwealth just feels better!
