I apologize if this isn't the best place to ask this question. I have been looking everywhere for more classical/orchestral music and EDM hybrids, but nothing has come close to this song.

I saw there were music subs but they didn't really seem like the place where you ask about finding new music.

Again apologies if this isn't the best sub for this question I just didn't know where else to ask.

You might like Igorrr. His style is a bit more metal than EDM. He combines classical and baroque styles with heavy modern electronic sounds, which you may like.

Igorrr - Grosse Barbe

I am most certainly interested in this.... This will be going into a different playlist though haha. Thank you.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Ha! Never heard this before, but it's awesome that another group has played with Verdi's "dies irae."

So, this is nothing like what you're looking for, but here's another take on "dies irae" by Symphony X.

I kept getting frustrated that the OP’s song never went to the next part. I kept trying to sing SOLVET SÆCLUM IN FAVILA.

(It was good though.)

So thank you for your remedy. 🤣

Nah I have a playlist where this will go. Thank you haha.

Porter Robinson—Musician (though more orchestral- than classical-influenced perhaps?) Kikuo is a Japanese baroquey artist who deals a lot with dubstep. Kikuo—怪獣ピノ・ポラリス probably fits your ask but is a bit long and builds, though the baroque and EDMish parts feel a bit more isolated. Kikuo—塵塵呪詛: one of Kikuo's relatively older works so it only uses jingly instruments from the orchestra. i was very recently introduced by a friend so i can't recall which song was more infusing lol. you also have Kikuo—カエルのおどり which starts out with a traditional east-asian orchestra and gradually introduces electronic elements and Kikuo—MAWARU which is chaos on an album that uses horns much more though they're in the background on this track unfortunately idk much more other than this random youtube compilation since this surprisingly seems to be a niche combination. i like baroque stuff but it seems like the stuff i have is baroque emo psych and art pop

Much appreciated. I will definitely check these out later.

[–] choss 2 points 22 hours ago

Cool track! Thanks for showing it! I wish I had a better answer with a clear hybrid like yours rather than a change of style, but check these out: Malenia, Blade of Miquella, from the game Elden Ring, and then a synthwave arrangement of it

I have a few of their songs already but I appreciate the recommendation. Tells me I am not alone in this hunt haha.

Much appreciated. It feels weird saying this but you can really tell this is 12 years ago EDM production. I'm glad I was able to rave back then, but man has techno/EDM come a long way since then haha.

I think this would fit the bill pretty well Apashe - Lord and Master Somewhat more dubstep leaning, but it has the classical side. Oh just noticed someone else already rec'd them and you alteady knew them anyway.

Maybe E Nomine if you're not familiar with them already? For example Mitternacht Mitternacht

Description sounds like Saint Slime

Try youtube music. You don’t need an account on desktop. Just go to the site and search the genre or type in “songs (or artists) like [title of the song or name of artist]. Then look at the community playlist results. More often than not, someone already made a playlist that you can work off of.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I actually have YouTube music and the radio stations based on that song just come back as full on hard style or other EDM without the classical or orchestra side of it sadly. I have tried several searches for community playlists and none of them really have what I am looking for unfortunately.

Unless there is some way to search for community playlists that include a specific track that I don't know about... That would be super handy.

This doesn't address your question really, but on Reddit there was a great sub called /r/ifyoulike (or possibly/r/ifIlike, I'm not sure) which was exactly for asking this sort of question - "I like this, please recommend more like it".

Not sure if you use Reddit or not, but if you do, you might try there. Of course, ideally we'd have something like that here, and you wouldn't have to go there!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Unfortunately I was banned from reddit without explanation so I can't use it anymore lmao.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Ah, yeah, that would make it difficult 😁

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

Just wee bit.
