Thread: Re: TNE: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

Interesting. I thinking more along the lines of Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, and the like.

I guess the first thing to decide is whether you want to go with a particular genre of music (e.g. Star Wars and the music of John Williams), or have a mix (e.g. Guardians of the Galaxy) and then look to specific pieces that fit.
Thanks, I like that Two Steps from Hell track. And you are right, the dubstep drop is nice. But to me, TNE is 20 years old, so it feels like it needs some older classic rock. Couple that with the conceptual realization I had a few years ago that RCES = Rhodesian Army, and I see a bunch of AC/DC, KISS, maybe even some Beegees, Eric Clapton, Queen. RC is all about using older salvageable technology. Philosophically speaking, an eight-track tape deck wouldn't be out of place on the bridge of a Victrix class ship. 
Now I'm not saying that dubstep has no place in traveller. There is one setting that seems made for dubstep: 1248. I can just imagine all those vampire super dreadnoughts with Lucan's personality blasting dubstep, trance and techno as they scour the pesky humans with nuclear fire. But then again, that's 1248 for you. Or as I call it, "Traveller The New Era 1248-- the Heretics Heresy."

Okay my two cents:
Before the attack on the TEDs stronghold In the Air Tonight Phil Collins
Big battle on the surface with the Vampires Megadeath Trooper
Sandmans Theme Behind Blue Eye's The Who
Orbital assault Give me Shelter Rolling Stone( think about it, listen to
the song and picture a ship cresting the horizon spewing capsules ,
scene keeps going back and forth tween them decending and the guys inside
them sweating it out.)
Sandman deciding to join the RECEs Analog Kid Rush
First landing on a Vampire world Stripped Depeche Mode

Wherever you go there you are-Buckaroo Banzai

We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to
visit violence on those who would do us harm. (Winston Churchill)

When in doubt I think of the immortal words of Socrates when he said:"I
just drank what?"

I wish, For in the air look it up on you Tube just type in it in and add
Miami Vice. I think it is a great pre battle song.
As for the rest best Clip is the one in my mind, called imagination.

Wherever you go there you are-Buckaroo Banzai

We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to
visit violence on those who would do us harm. (Winston Churchill)

When in doubt I think of the immortal words of Socrates when he said:"I
just drank what?"

;) ah well, I've had one to go with "Price to Pay" (AP Project) for years stuck in my headCockpit of ship cruising along - cut to inbound jump of large hostile and then as the bass riffs begin the crew is running to battle stations in hard suits/battle armor ...

Now I'm not saying that dubstep has no place in traveller. There is one setting that seems made for dubstep: 1248. I can just imagine all those vampire super dreadnoughts with Lucan's personality blasting dubstep, trance and techno as they scour the pesky humans with nuclear fire.

Well you could go also go with "Kill 'Em All" by Metallica, but personally I'm thinking even more old school than that...
Richard Wagner - Götterdämmerung - Twilight of the gods - AWESOME

Hmmm, Iron Maiden - The trooper, sounds like it would be excellent for

I even started thinking of theme songs for the factions:

The Sons of Thunder: Mob Rules by Black Sabbath
Sons of Craig: Prince of Darkness by Indigo Girls
Solomoni: March or Die by Motorhead
The Vikings: Take it back by Jimmy Buffett
The Regency : Don't stop Believing by Journey
