Music to my ears

Since the search function has been again disabled, I'll have to bring this up anew...and it can be a quick thread...

What is the status of the music for EUIII? I don't want to give away my preferences, as I'm sure they'll be dashed.

Haven't you heard, Falalalalaaan (and it's 1700 remixes) is the only thing that is gonna be on the sountrack...

I hope that Paradox will stick with the precedent and not switch to the "independent" music that they have used in HoI 2 and CK.

Why? I can get classical music myself, I can't get Jazzhole's compositions without Paradox...

Because historical music fits a historical game. It helps build the correct mood.

I can live with some baroque music (Vivaldi, Händel, some of Bach's stuff), but I have no idea what came before that. What's the historical music of the 15th and 16th century? Falalan?

And he quoted HoI2. And I most certainly prefer the music of HoI2 to the music of the 1930s and 1940s. And I don't think there is much known music from the middle ages for CK.

I can hardly wait for the disco version.

HoI 2's soundtrack was awful. CK's was not very bad, but could had been much better if Paradox decided to go for real medieval music.

Cancionero de Palacio all the way for EUIII!

Do we actually have scores for these or just their texts? I mean, is it possible tor reproduce that stuff?

Personally I'm waiting for a punk one myself

Just go to an good discotheque. Even Amazon has some cd's on the subject.

Naxos website, has usually low-price cd's (lool its earlier music list)

I liked CK's soundtrack - except it was too short. Sounded to me like a movie soundtrack which made me feel as though I was in a movie about the medieval period.

There's a wealth of great music for the three or four hundred years represented in the game period, let's hope they pick some good tunes for us!

 

[Zeitgeist]

I quite enjoyed HoI2s soundtrack personally. If anything it got repetitive because of the separation into peace and war songs (which for certain countries meant you were basically listening to the same set the entire game). But nonetheless I thought it was well done.

 

[EvilSanta]

For me music isnt veyr important.Yes,I have them at background and not anything from my discs but I hardly remember what kind of they are.Anything classical works for me.

 

[jmschaub]

I turn off the music instantly... i hate repetitive music

 

[joriandrake]

multiple list as option for music changeable in-game:

-historical ones
-non-historical
-a mix of both, all of them
-a mix of both, the 'all time favorites'
-you own list(s)

I definatly want to be able to choose my own music. Having Karolinerna with "karolinermarsch" while fighting the great nordic war...
