We all know the soundtrack of Stardew Valley is phenomenal and absolutely fantastic, but sometimes you can find your flow listening to something else, or perhaps you're just in a different mood than what the soundtrack provides and want something else to motivate you to farming. And sometimes there's just a song, or a playlist, that defines each season for you. In this thread, list off the non-SDV song or song playlist that you associate with each season. And you can provide a link to them, if you'd like. If you'd also like, you can explain why you associate each song to each season.
I'll start off.
Spring: TheFatRat - Monody: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7xai5u_tnk
Spring is the season that can define how the rest of the year is going to go, especially on a fresh start. This song (as well as the more orchestral version) helps get me motivated for all the cleaning and planting that has to be done.
Summer: Robin Huston - Light It Up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdE_SyHad90
Summer is the season where things are typically in high gear for me with constant, constant work and tending to the fields and making bank of produce. It's a very hectic season for me with a lot going on, so this song and it's beat helps me find a pattern in planting, harvesting, etc.
Autumn: Ben Howard - Oats in the Water - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaH4W1rY9us
Autumn is...not my favorite season IRL. I'm much more of a summer person, so when fall rolls around in real life I tend to get grumpy because I do not like the cold and the coming dark. In game, as all the plants begin to wither and the forests turn brown, I find it's a intense, dark rush to harvest what I can from the outdoor crops before the snows arrive and non-greenhouse farming ends.
Winter: Les Friction - Who Will Save You Now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vI0FETSHAv4
I hate winter, both IRL and in-game. It is a bleak, endless dreariness that weighs heavy on my mind and soul. I despise being cold, and winter may reveal the hidden wonders of the woods but the endless gray skies, the cold, sharp winds and the short days...There's nothing about it that I like. And in-game, it translates to not being able to do much but go to the mines every day, unless you've converted to hot-house farming. I count the days until winter ends both in-game and IRL so that things become far more enjoyable.
Those are the songs I associate with each season, what are yours?
