Anyone Listen To Specific Songs When Playing A Certain Killer?

Just wondering if other people do this, but whenever I play killer, I listen a certain song to kind of set the mood for what Im doing. Like just to name a few (keep in mind most of my playlist is electro swing and EDM):

~ Legion: Professional Griefers (Deadmau5, Rob Swire), Haunted (Skurk), Ghosts N Stuff (Deadmau5, Rob Swire)

~Billy: Till It's Over (Tristam), DGAF (Noah Slee), Monophobia (Deadmau5, Rob Swire)

~Plague: Devotion (Tristam), Bone Dry (Tristam), Astronomia (Wolfgang Lohr), Lone Digger (Caravan Palace)

Like I dont know why, these are just the songs I connect the characters to the most, even if some of them are really odd picks.

    Don't play any music when playing the game in general but if I had to choose for Legion... It'd be Moving by Get Scared.

    I wouldn't dream about listening to even the slightest whisper outside of my killer gameplay. Chasing survivors is very demanding and you need to be able to notice the most faint of moans or cracking of dirt. The chase music is so loud that I at least can't afford to listen to some music besides the game ^^

    I only turn off the music when the game demands it, I dont listen it to it the entire time for obvious reasons.

    Yeah like i can throw on spine chill and put sandstorm on loop while playing survivor, but sometimes sounds don't even work properly as killer and they're kinda important as it is without being drowned out by a tasty jam.

    For survivors I normal listen to:

    ~ Howling (Lupus Nocte), Hold The Night (Foret De Vin), Skeletons (Easy Life), Lost In The Rhythm (Jamie Berry), Sandblast (Fox Stevenson), Martini On The Run (Jules Gaia), Marble Machine (Wintergatan)

    Just a lot of variety music.

    i don't listen to music while playing killer because you do need to be aware of survivor's noises at all times, but i usually have some music playing in the background at low volume when playing Surv, mainly...

    • Here i Go Again - Whitesnake
    • Sleeping Goliath - Espinas: Sunbreak Edition (not what it's actually called but i don't care) - Capcom Sound Team
    • Endless Maze - Jungle: Sunbreak Edition - Capcom Sound Team
    • Dung Defender - Christopher Larkin

    and whatever else YT recommendations give me really

    Good ole Christopher Larkin's music. Man the Hollow Knight OST does slap, I have a lot of the songs in my Spotify playlist.

    I generally don't listen to music when playing killer since it makes Survivors and gens harder to notice/hear, with that said however, playing "Mumbo's BBQ" from Banjo Kazooie while playing as Bubba never gets old, also listening to "Humans are such easy prey" by Pertubator while playing as any killer always sets the mood and tone for the match.

    When it comes to Survivor thou, it would be either the version of Hello Zepp from the movie Jigsaw for when the EGC triggers, also playing any piece of music from Dance with the Dead since most- if not all their music consist of nothing but pure bangers.

    When playing Trickster I always have a BlackPink mix on starting with How you like that? Singing along to "Now look at you, now look at me, look at you, now look at me. Look at you, now look at me, how you like that?"

    There’s some cool Killer-themed music out there on YouTube. But for me, sound is too important for Killer. I only play music as Survivor.

    I hear music when I'm in queue or in the lobby/loading screen. I can't stand people who listen to music while playing killer, that's why I can't watch certain streamers. Survivor is a different story, currently, I listen to Ice Nine Kills and I think the Silver Scream album only has good songs.

    As cool as listening to certain music might be DbD is not a game I would want to have a soundtrack on in my headphones, it's really, really important to be able to hear the other players.

    I don't listen to music when playing killer. Need to hear everything in game.

    If I did, my Trapper would get: Die MF Die by Dope.

    Actually, I'd play that for all but Doc. He'd get: I Don't Give a F*** by Dope.
