Oohh oh oh… Check out “The Algorithm”

I think that might be the closest to what you are looking for that I can think of. It’s a little metal on the drums, but it’s got way more synth lead stuff.

While a bit different from what your asking for, you should also check out Master Boot Record - it’s a bit more chip tune metal. It’s fun though

I think you were asking about the genre of music, and I don’t have an answer for you off the top of my head, but if you want to go on the journey of electronic music genres and sub genres and sub sub genres and learn about types of music and artists you might like, strap on your ear goggles and head on over to Ishkur’s guide to electronic music:music.ishkur.com

I have lost hours of my life there before.

Ok, I was going to edit this in to my last comment, but you already replied, so:

‘You’re Not Supposed to Be Here’

Ok so we open with… I think:

Either a very distorted bass guitar or synth… and… a marimba?

At about 10 seconds we start the action, angry synth and … drum kit that includes a steel drum?

We’ve also got another kind of haunting synth doing a more complex melody…

Then at about 35 seconds, the song basically explodes into… all the synths are here (maybe some are guitars with lots of effects/delays/fades?) now, big sound range from the synths/possible guitars…

And then at about 55 seconds, slight lull, piano is here now,

Some synths/guitars? are still going, piano is somber, breakbeat drumming is intense … thats quite a juxtapostion…

Synths get more prominent, piano fades out…

Then by about 1:35 we downplay the synths a bit, piano is sad again… drumming is still happening.

Ok, then by about 1:55, pretty sure this is a guitar, that uses a delay pedal/effect to basically punctuate itself for 1-2 second melodic bursts, gets accomoanied by either another heavily modified guitar or synth untill…

About 2:25, sad piano is back again, to basically play us out, but the breakbeat drumming is still here, untill it isn’t, and we actually fade out on bass guitar/synth… and the marimba.

This is a 2:41 second song.

It took me like 15 minutes to attempt to comprehend what is happening.

I do know Master Boot Record and yeah I agree, its more like chiptune metal…

I will have to check out The Algorithm and Ishkur’s site… though probably tomorrow.

I know that if I start now, I will not get to sleep untill 4 am.

  Yeah this is pretty forward on the Acid Bass, made famous by the TB-303. While that track doesn’t sound exactly like a 303, definitely reminiscent of it, and the 303 finds its way into a lot of industrial. This track is pretty cinematic, which fits it right into that “video game soundtrack” vibe that doesn’t exist much outside of games. I’m bored right now though, so I’m going to go down some rabbit holes and maybe find something for you to listen to. This type of music is right up my alley, so I might discover some new stuff to listen to myself.
