Muzak

"Skyward Sword" by Cory Johnson is a post-rock rendition of the main theme from Skyward Sword; it's fittingly epic and soaring.

"Fire Above, Ice Below" by Agalloch is a reflective piece, creating a sophisticated mix of atmospheric rock and doom metal; the addition of acoustic guitar creates an arboreal sound, resulting in a sense of location in a forest.

"D-Evil" from the anime Ao No Exorcist is another "genre" piece that forges its own identity amongst its propulsive music.

"Sideshow" by Calexico is a bouncy song marked by very upbeat percussion; the piece is eccentric but retains its fun sound across changing dynamics.

"Silent Footsteps" from Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an ethereal chill, moving forward slowly as if to seem sneaky.
