Recommendations for music combining classical and modern instruments - eviltoast

Hi Lemmy

Not sure if this is the right community for requests, if not, mods feel free to delete this post.

After a long time I’m finally finding joy again in listening to music. Lately I’m into stuff that combines classical or symphonic instruments (i.e. brass, strings, piano) with modern music styles like electronica, pop or hip hop.

Stuff like the albums Symphonia or Deluxe by Schiller, or the OST of the Desert Combat mod for Battlefield 1942.

Do you have any suggestions for similar tracks?

    Not quite like the albums you mentioned, but here’s some stuff that all incorporates some classical instruments with modern rock instruments

    • Laideronnette or zatracenie by matryoshka - maybe the most like what you mentioned, ambient-ish with strings and piano
    • イリヤ (- il y a -) by 夢中夢 (mutyumu) - maybe a bit avant-garde, but makes heavy use of strings and piano
    • Enjoy Eternal Bliss by Yndi Halda - post-rock with strings
    • ONDA by JAMBINAI - Korean post-rock that mixes traditional Korean instruments with modern rock instruments
