Within by Daft Punk.
Sometimes people forget that Daft Punk isn’t always up-beat energetic awesomeness. Sometimes they can go the mellow, longing and contemplative route and similar to basically everything they do, songs like that work beautifully. Just like “Instant Crush,” “Within” is melancholically majestic and by far one of my favorite tracks of Random Access Memories.

Baltar’s Dream by Bear McCreary.
Even though I trying to get caught up with Top of the Lake, Bates Motel, The Vampire Diaries, The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Carnival, for some reason I’ve started re-watching Battlestar Galactica. I just love it so much and now that I have it on blu-ray, it’s like watching it anew and it is badass.

London Calling by Michael Giacchino.
Even though Star Trek Into Darkness has some major flaws, somehow it all seems to work. Giacchino score wasn’t as operatic as in the first one, but with a track as amazing as this one who honestly cares.

Museum (Extra Track From Promo) by Asche & Spencer.
The only thing I remember about this film is thinking at the end that it all a waste of time. But a couple of months ago I randomly downloaded the soundtrack and I’ve been gradually falling in love with it. It is quite honestly one of the best soundtracks I’ve ever heard. It kinda makes me want to watch the film again to see if perhaps this second time around I’ll enjoy with a new perspective.

Don’t Lie by Vampire Weekend.
Ever since Contra I’ve been a fan of Vampire Weekend. While that album was a sploosh of up-beat tracks, Modern Vampires of the City feels much more melancholic and contemplative. There’s a serenity to it, but dressed up in an almost lullaby-like manner.

Over the Love (Of You) by Florence + The Machine & SBTRKT.
The soundtrack for The Great Gatsby is hit and miss for me, but luckily the few songs that do work legit work. The consistently brilliant/amazing Florence + the Machine delivers another great song, and I quite prefer this version with SBTRKT over her solo version. This one is more toned down and has a more charming vibe.

Combat III by Power Glove.
Ever since this DLC was announced I’ve been anxiously waiting to play it. What I like about it the most besides the homage to an awesomely kick-ass bygone era is that it’s a prime example of people taking a real risk within a video game. The gameplay itself isn’t groundbreaking by any means, but the concept and the aesthetics feel fresh and distinctive from anything else out there.

Bullet Cut by Rick Smith.
Cannot wait for this film! This soundtrack is rapidly becoming one of my favourites of the year.

Hostility Is a Means of Survival by Elia Cmiral.
Another game I finished recently was Spec Ops: The Line. While I didn’t like the gameplay itself, the plot of the game is by far one of the most memorable. It’s very ambitious in what it’s trying to say about violence and FPS games.

The Place by Inc.
In most of my music lists posts I talk about Inc. and yes, I am super obsessed with them. Listen to this song and tell me you’re not charmed by its soulfully mesmerizing tenderness? Their album No World is one of the absolute best of the year. You should all give it a listen for reals.
