I'm thinking the best fight scene music for Blame might actually be total silence

The best normal scene music for Blame! would be silence. The fighting scenes beg for music.

I'm thinking more silence to put an emphasis in the sounds of the scenes themselves. It would be fantastic to have a really really rich soundscape uncluttered by music.

It would fit well with the bleak theme of Blame!

The music would have to be made of different mechanical/industrial noises... I imagine the environment of BLAME! to have a lot of liquids dripping, electrical buzzing and static crackling through the megastructure, mechanical clanking noises (clashes) as well as the grinding of different unstable structures...
I also imagine that air would circulate in strange ways... Wheezing, humming, whistling as it circulates through the megastructure.

This as a whole could be turned into a sort of weird industrial music.

I haven't read all of the previous posts, but Lustmord definitely comes to mind, when I think of the music/sound of BLAME!... (I apologize if it's been suggested)


Btw, if anyone know where I can find official information about the live action movie that was to be and died please let me know (articles, sources for inside info etc).
I've read some things on here but I was wondering where I could find up to date details on what happened, who was producing it, would have starred in it... things like that...
ANY HELP WELCOME! (PM me please since, it's not directly related to this topic... or refer me to a topic that is appropriate, thanks)

I everyboby i'm a brand new guy Here!

I just LOVE reading Blame while i'm hearing a band that I really like , Nine Inch Nails aka NIN !
For me it's just the perfect style of music to enter this world of Cyber punk trash life , just try it on time you'll see

Something by Dir en Grey would deffinately be most fitting. X3 <33 If not Nitemare,... or DDR music. >.>

The Mars Volta's "Deloused in the Comatorium" is my favorite Blame soundtrack, at least for now. It's dreamlike and freakish at the same time, just like Blame. Many lyrics are so incomprehensible that they just melt into the the music and add the the ambience it provides, while the lyrics that can be heard add great subtext to parts of the story. The first two tracks on the album are perfect for the Retrieved Consciousness chapter, although their running time is a lot more than the time it takes to read that chapter. Cicatriz E.S.P. is the perfect background music for volume 8, with the second wave of lyrical howling starting just as Domochevsky shoots Davine.

Other favorite Blame songs are The Project Hate's "The Divine Burning of Angels" as a soundtrack for the Exterminator First Class fight and Rusty Cooley's instrumental track "The Duel" for the fight between Seu and Ivy.

yeah y'all just pointed it out, AFX is the one. I'd say "Selected Ambient Works II" is the right shit for BLAME

besides the fact that he's my favourite artist of all times

NIN and...Squarepusher and some Plaid, but just the most obscure material of this 2...

and if u like xtreme metal, Meshuggah also fits perfectly to the scenic hell that BLAME rapresent, xpecially their later works - like "Nothing" or "Catch 33".

uh, and some Noise/Industrial shit like Halo or sumthin like that

I'm listening now to an album called Dataplex from Ryoji Ikeda, I read about it in a site so I tried and now I think this is the right music for blame!, they used raw data to produce sounds, it's pretty weird but has it's rythm and all! It's neat!

I'm listening to Kovenant when I reading Blame!, I think its great with Nihei's art.

Especially the album called animatronic
