Greetings earthlings. I require your beloved- nah I'm not doing this.
Hi! I need some music recommendations! Preferably of the astronomical variety. I'm creating a playlist and I want a ton of space-themed music or just songs that have that vibe.
So send ova some space essentials you would need if you were catapulted into space one day. I'd prefer Spotify links as that's what I'm using, or hell if it's a gem just send any link from any platform.
Here's this playlist (so far) if you're curious:

Thank yaa 🚀✨

Are you into hardstyle?
Noisecontrollers – Universe was born (its an older track that feels like a travel through time to the big bang)
Noisecontrollers – Pillars of Creation (no vocals / the melody itsself has that special… something)
Noisecontrollers – The approach (an attempt of replicating the contact towards an entity unknown to mankind in music form)
Noisecontrollers – Big Bang (i guess this could fall into the space-theme)
Noisecontrollers – to the future

Sub Zero Project – Astronauts (more modern track)
Project one – life beyond earth
Andy Svge – Gravity (angerfist made a great remix of this track aswell)
Phuture Noize – The worlds beyond (a more dark-ish track)

“We sit and watch the world go crazy
Beneath the atmosphere so hazy
Wonder when did we go wrong?
All the wars and all the bombs
And the weapons of destruction
Atomic nuclear eruptions
Are so senseless from this perspective
We forgot we’re all connected”

Female of the species is my favourite song by Space!

Starship Trooper / Yes
Space Cowboy / Steve Miller Band

Telstar by the Tornados [Here it is on Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryrEPzsx1gQ)
The race for space by Public Broadcasting Service is a great concept album using real audio from the space age up to apollo 17
Most of the later works from ELO, although that is more sci-fi music of a bygone age. I’m thinking Twilight especially.
Hey I’ve made this playlist before!
Modest Mouse – Gravity Rides Everything
Meat Puppets – Up on the Sun
Tarentel – A Crystal the Size of Our Moon
Mum -The Land Between Solar System
It’s been a long road, getting from there to here… 🎵🎶
’39 by Queen (Brian May singing rather than Freddie Mercury) is a thinly disguised space travel time dilation story.
Neighbourhood by Space

Anything by Geodesium. Geodesium is a music project first launched in the 1970s by composer and recording artist Mark C. Petersen. The name is a combination of the terms “geodesic dome” and “planetarium” and refers to the space music Petersen creates specifically for use as scores for planetarium shows.
Michael Garrison (another electronic musician) does a lot of space themed music, Eclipse, aurora Dawn, In the regions of sun return.
[Open Fire](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vah1kJo3w8c), an instrumental album by Ronnie Montrose produced by Edgar Winter. Not really space themed, but definitely spacey. I can totally see myself blasting album this while piloting my highly maneuverable inertial dampened personal spacecraft.
