    I'm not affiliated with the event organizer, or Itch.io, but I love me a good jam!

    Any composers out there that want to join me?

    If you're looking for something that occasionally jumps out at you and makes you want to punch the foundation of the building you're in, I would recommend By the Throat by Ben Frost. It's a much darker ambient vibe, but it's super moving, and I liken parts to Enter by Russian Circles (which happens to be one of my favorite albums), and others to Ursus Americanus by Author & Punisher.

    Thanks for recommending Éliane Radigue and William Basinski. One is a classic, and the other a modern classic. Radigue's [https://youtu.be/SKrZdvqzAEc](Trilogie de la mort) is one that I come back to semi-annually for work and relaxation.

    • Exemplary

    Flim by Aphex Twin and Flim by The Bad Plus is a wonder.

    Not In Love by Platinum Blonde and Not In Love by Crystal Castles featuring Robert Smith
    Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode and Enjoy the Silence by Swift
    In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel and In Your Eyes by Mouth of the Architect
    SOS by ABBA and SOS by Portishead

    Maybe not enough of a genre shift:
    A Case of You by Joni Mitchell and A Case of You by James Blake
    The Promise by When In Rome and The Promise by Mint Julep

    Definitely doesn't qualify as a genre shift, but I'm sharing it anyway (at least it's not No Diggity):
    You're My Best Friend by Queen and Best Friend by Melvins

    Last addition, I promise, but it's a "must" in my opinion: The Advantage (formerly Minibosses, I think) was a band who exclusively covered songs from video games. Here's their second album. My personal favorite is the Mike Tyson's Punchout cover.
