I would like to direct your attention to this song, written by RetromanOMG:

The song is definitely flawed - it has a bizarre sitar break, for example - but... the melody.

If that melody doesn't make you feel something than you're a robot.

Man, that is a beautiful melody! ;) RetromanOMG's music tends to have that effect on people. I don't know if you like chillstep, but you should probably check out "Awakened from Cryosleep." I was listening to it when my family and I took a train to NYC during school vacation week once, and after seeing hours of drab half-dead bushes, the city opened up in front of me at 4:42 (in the song). It felt so euphoric and cinematic! Interesting how you used the word "robot" in your post, because RetromanOMG's music makes robotic sounds emotional! ;D

That is a really great story.

Once I was on a plane and listening to 1.618 by BT (check it out sometime) - it's this really mysterious, open, and expansive song. And right when the song really opened up, the plane took off and looking out from the window I could see everything. It was a really great experience - mysterious but also full of possibility! It's always stuck in my mind.

(This story might be apocryphal because I don't think you could ever listen to ipods on planes, but maybe the rule wasn't in effect or something.)

Not sure if emotional... Or mind control. It's that effective.

The real reason I write music comes out! :O

That chord progression is almost hypnotic. And the accompanying atmosphere is great as well. And yeah, that sitar section is a bit of a mood killer.

And speaking of great melodies, this is my favourite melod on newgrounds. I don't know if that's your cup of tea or not, but it gets me every time.

Yesss... This song is really wonderful too. My goodness. It has this really video gamey sort of mystical/fantasy feel to it. And the chords... so good <3
