It sounds ridiculous but I promise I’m being serious. I’m looking for instrumental songs that are from the middle ages / the renaissance, with fun and fast-paced beats that just makes you wanna dance to it. Think of the POTC soundtrack but medieval. An example is the song “Im Maien” by Piffaro. I’m writing a story at the moment that takes place during this time and I could really use some upbeat, party bangers as inspiration lmao.
Yeah, I still consider it pop music first. Not sure how prolific actual historical works are, but fantasy/period soundtracks might have to suffice. Good luck!
What specific genre? Maybe we can help right here.
Regardless of the genre, the answer is King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.
I tried to like psychedelic rock, man. I really tried.
There are better kings in pyscadelic rock. King Buffalo maybe? King Gizzard is not always easy listening.
You need to do more drugs. Or less drugs. Either way, the solution is drugs.
I don’t disagree. Might be dependent on specific drugs/effects? :P

Not exactly what you’re looking for, but the Bardcore genre is the modern equivalent - pop songs retrofitted with medieval aesthetic.

I have listened to that! While they’re funny, I can’t take them very seriously, especially when writing. :')
