We had a drop in center right above a liquor store, no cover charge. It felt subversive hanging out with other kids while the neighboring bar did karaoke, we didn't get up to much but there was a bunch of videogames to play with strangers.
If you're still looking for similar music, I'd suggest The Prodigy songs, for example: "First Warning," "Serial Thrilla," & "Climbatize" Trentemøller - "Always something better" CJ Bolland - "It's All In The Mind" Sorry if none of these were what you were looking for, cheers!
Actually there’s TONS of songs in the show that are playing in the background? Serial experiments Lain’s songs are like one of the best features of the show lol.
watch it's successor, texhnolyze. slow pacing tho, not much dialogue, very atmospheric. and prolly the most mindfucked nihilistic piece of anime/art today.
It's such an urgent yet groovy song. It's like something is going wrong as alarm bells ring through your ears, yet everyone still has some time to dance before shit hits the fan. And the breaks where the music calms down also still have anxiety in them, the pitch getting higher. It fits well with what happens at Cyberia that kicks off the series- a guy killing a couple people and then himself. The urgency and panick of this song perfectly fits that theme.
I've been looking all around for a good quality sub because, being a child of 95'/ early 2000's, I recognize that some of the best phylosophical topics were presented through really good animes back then. Gloomy, slightly depressing, but relevant in their surrealism and art (Ghost in the Shell, Witch Hunter Robin, and I'm sure Ergo Proxy counts).
phase866 For old anime and shows the only way to get good picture quality is to actually buy the DVD itself because the rip's look really bad if the show isn't ripped from a blu-ray disc. The price is reasonable considering what you get
One cannot enjoy this song without listening 0:23 to 1:12 on full blast and full bass ITS FUCKIN' WORTH IT, I CAN'T HEAR A THING NOW AND ITS FRICKIN' AWESOME
I was born in 2002 and didn't discover this anime until I was twelve, so wayyy late into the game. I still have such a unique, deep and relevant bond to this anime in my own way, but if any feel so inclined I'd love to know how Lain hit back then.
this just feels like that one time you have been to a night club as a kid, everything around shaking and moving so rapid you cant focus on anything, music almost as if roaring into your ears, and you're confused trying to hide from this
Adult Swim should very much have slated something like "Serial Experiments Saturday Night's" every other month in the early '00's, in which they'd feature three episodes of Lain up until the finale. Geneon of course would've never paid like MacFarlane.
Very nicely done, but I wish you had shown her angry face with the red tint... I think that captures the moment perfectly. I once tripped and saw this mean grandmothers face, cursing at me, even though she wasn't really that's what I saw. And words can't describe the fear I felt at that moment. When I watched Episode 2 I felt like the conceptual artist had been there himself because he depicted the feeling perfectly, right down to the look of terror on that boys face.
Serial Experiments Lain is probably one of the most confusing amines Ive ever seen (Compared to Elfin Lied), Ive watched it more than 4 times through it so addicting! Thanks for uploading this song Ive been looking everywhere for it! I WANT ACELLA!
Perhaps the reason they were so addicting is because they were so few. There's the Cyberia Theme, the opening and ending songs, about 2 or 3 other soundtracks I heard and actually remembered in the ENTIRE anime. Though, to be fair, this anime didn't really need music. It's awesome as it stands, seeing as this is the first anime that I bought the BD/DVD for. The only thing I dislike about Serial Experiments Lain is how short it was.
I always get this confused in memory with some of the soundtrack from Deus Ex like the Lucky Money music. I guess the memory slots for "cyberpunk dance club background music" in my head are unlabeled.
What I meant is that if you haven't studied at least some of it, the whole serie will be pretty much senseless until about episode 9 or so... and it will still blow your mind
OH M Y GOD I I recently watched Serial Experiments Lain and recognized this song and I realize the Cyberia map I played on gmod TTT was THIS I thought it was just some random ass creators map and that song would blast in that map the whole time it was such an ear worm
When I took a hit from a bong, the wax was extremely strong as fuck and I shit you not, I felt like lain, I was in my own world I felt distant from everyone

A teen night club like Cyberia is so rare, but they do exist in real life in very few cities, at least they did in the 90's.
Reminds me of the teen discos they do here, though they weren't as cool as cyberia haha
I remember going to one when I was 17, but it was lame. Didn't go back out to clubs until I was 21.

i dont think cyberia is a teen night club. They re are clearly adults present
Oh I just thought it was a regular ass nightclub that teens and kids just snuck into lol
theres something really nice and nostalgic about early 2000s cyberpunk/psychological anime, and i dont know what it is.
This was late 1990's. Shocking how relevant it has remained.

Ain't that the truth.
It honestly blew my mind. Just watched this show for the first time. I grew up with ghost in the shell and somehow this one passed me by.
2 decades
That’s why they chose the phrase present day present time
I have to say that for a show that has almost no soundtrack on the background, this theme from Serial Experiments Lain is really badass
DavidAtomic The Ost is actually fairly big I'd recommend checking it out if you haven't already it's marvelous.
Actually there’s TONS of songs in the show that are playing in the background? Serial experiments Lain’s songs are like one of the best features of the show lol.
I feel so nostalgic when I watch Lain even though I only watched it 2 months ago.
This anime is probably the most surreal thing I have ever watched.
watch it's successor, texhnolyze. slow pacing tho, not much dialogue, very atmospheric. and prolly the most mindfucked nihilistic piece of anime/art today.

I have heard about that. I hear it's much darker when compared to Lain.
Yea it is. it's quite depressing sometimes, yet has some powerfull messages. try it :p
It'sColdInMay
Will do.
suggest you to watch Ergo Proxy
soundtracks in this anime really were special. Its ridiculous how important music can be. It really made this enjoyable
It still is

They actuality did air it on TechTV (G4) back in the day. Perhaps if it was on a network that got traffic, more people would know about it though.

Sounds kinda electro-industrial rock, imo. Thats kinda the original sound of cyberpunk too.
