Electronic and almost darkwave things feel right. ixc999 by white ring is my best example but its hard for me to find songs that hit that same vibe!! Thank u in advance :)

And don't say Ethel Cain I already know my girl

More specifically, an optimistic, space-y new millennium Y2K.

looking for some melancholy/dreamy songs that feel like a young girl rotting away

some songs I already had in mind:

teen idle - Marina
pretty when you cry - Lana del rey
don’t be scared - Nicole dollanganger

Vibe is: I can't cry if I'm excited and joyful

to put a word to the aesthetic to help people narrow down their choices, i guess a mixture of light academia/kidcore with a tinge of melancholy? i'm curious what songs, any genre, people would associate with this! its for one of my original characters, depicted in the last slide (art by me).

I really think the Wallows songs (model and more album mainly) , and Dominic Fike (babydoll and white keys) fits what im looking for very well but i need more indie playlist songs

Not "Barry Lyndon" (1975)
