Hello, ever since I was a child i was obsessed with a certain aesthetic, yet I just never managed to find the exact name for it, for the longest time i referred to it as Underground or Urban, the closest i ever found to what i'm looking for is Urbancore, but it's still not quite there yet.
Yes, it's all very urban, as you may imagine, but it has a very Y2K feel to me, it makes me feel very nostalgic, a couple of the things that i associate with it are subway stations, certain abandoned places, underground parking lots, wet pavement, skate parks, walls covered with old graffiti or posters, brick walls of various kinds, pipes going through walls , sometimes it can have an industrial setting and a green or yellow-ish filter in the whole thing.
I feel that often in music, the best representation of that aesthetic I could find is in the album "Psyence Fiction" by UNKLE, the album cover fits perfectly, and the songs that most fit in it to me are "Be There", "U.N.K.L.E. Main Title Theme" and SPECIALLY "Bloodstain". Other songs that I also think fit in the aesthetic are:
"Biscuit" by Portishead
"Shook Ones, Pt. 2" by Mobb Deep
"Low Place Like Home" by Sneaker Pimps
"Dirge" by Death in Vegas
"Numb", "In the End" and "Breaking the Habit" by Linkin Park
"First Snow" by Emancipator
"CRX" by Casino Royale
"Mastermind" and "Things You Can Do" by Deltron 3030
"Aquela Paz" by Charlie Brown Jr. (1997 version)
As well as these music videos:
Another thing I also thing fits perfectly with this aesthetic is the video game Fuzion Frenzy. I remember playing it a lot as a kid and it's probably the main reason why i love this aesthetic so much. The underground stages of Jet Set radio also remind me a lot of this aesthetic, although not as intensily.
Lastly, i sent a couple of album covers and generic images that i think fit in well in this aesthetic, some of these i found in the Urbancore page, so i wonder if this is just me looking too deep into the aesthetic, is it? Is there such thing as Dark Urbancore?
Thank you all for your help :)
