Hey there, fellow memers. It's been a while since I requested something, but I need to find more songs/artists with the following song's feeling:

I've found myself listening to a lot of dark ambient style pieces, such as the Limbo OST and occasionally the down-beat songs from Silent Hill. I need to find more, because I can't find many besides those few. Oh, and a few tracks from the JoJo OSTs.

EDIT: Correction. I've found a lot of these dark ambient pieces. I need good ones.

(I'll use spoiler tags so the post doesn't occupy too much space)

This seems to be the closest to the example given:

Kind of close. This is a battle theme.

This isn't dark dark, it's to give a sense of despair.

Eerie.

Give this one a listen. This is a nice little dark ambient track from Elfen Lied which picks up to a more frantic, panicky beat as it draws to a close.

 
Alternatively, if you're looking for an artist, you may wish to listen to some works by a YouTuber called Adrian von Ziegler. He produces tons of instrumentals of all kinds including dark style music. The song below uses Gothic undertones, but it may also interest you. Give his 300+ videos a browse and you'll probably find something that you like.

The Caretaker – An Empty Bliss Beyond this World is quite a nice album for dark ambient songs.
Also, the OFF soundtrack is pretty good, especially the first real "track", "Fourteen Residents", and if you're looking for more minimalism inspired music, as opposed to solely dark ambient songs, you'll
find Luciano Cilio's Dialoghi del Presente enjoyable too.

Bloody 'ell. I know about Yuki Kaijura. She worked in a variety of anime and game OSTs, uses plenty of western instruments, uses a made-up lenguage designed to sound ominous.
