Check out Kevin MacLeod's tracks here. It's where most of the music for KSP comes from.

Nice playlists, everyone. Keep them coming.

Also sprach Zarathrusta by Richard Strauss (2001:a space odyssey theme)

This sounds good when you are docking

Another one from me,

Kudos for liking Epica

For me 1812 Overture (Tchaikovsky) goes well with all my firework rockets (AKA "failed" designs)

[Masked Turk]

... I never expected my thread to actually take off, haha. Cheers for all the input so far chaps, think I'll update my playlist shortly with some of the links here

To be honest, I think space music in KSP would work perfectly only if it was dynamic, depending around which celestial body you're currently orbiting.

For instance, we should have a specific track for every planet and moon, which kicks in as soon as you enter the sphere of influence of the object. Orbiting around Jool would make the game play some majestical orchestral music, but approaching Tylo would change the soundtrack to something a little more tense, and so on and so forth.

Then of course, if you landed on Tylo the situation would be less frantic, the worst being over, and maybe a change of music might be needed at that point.

To truly do this well, I think each body would need music for a few themes, though some of these can probably be shared between similar bodies:

Arrival (entering its SOI)

Orbiting

Landing (suborbital trajectory, low altitude, descending) -- possibly a little tense to fit the "can't mess up the suicide burn" feeling if that's how you're landing.

Landed (possibly separate day and night themes)

Taking off (as per landing but ascending) -- less tense, more "Whee let's blast off into space" exciting

Also something for Kerbol orbits, which might also kick in if you're on an escape trajectory and are pretty close to the edge of SOI already.

The Crystal Method - High Roller

--Great launch music---

Kognitif - Rocket Trip

https://soundcloud.com/kognitifofficial/14-kognitif-rocket-trip

---Entering Duna SOI? ---

Bear in mind none of this is "classical" music... Great space tunes though.

[draeath]

Kalabi's Waft makes some good transfer burn music

Oh and Wildfire by Adam Fielding.

EDIT: Hrm, won't give me the public links for some reason right now. - FIXED.

I like those songs -

The obligatory Star Trek Theme:

And of course a song for Wernher von Kerman

The last song probably shouldn't be part of the game though, especially the introduction

[Newq]

Mirrors Edge full soundtrack works well for all occasions of KSP. It works really well during risky rescue missions:D

Link:

[Deadweasel]

How about the entire soundtrack from Homeworld and Homeworld II?

[Sylandro]

Who can't forget this?

(I can't find the whole song, so i have some apologies for everyone who wants to hear the full version.)
