Music of the Ostheer

Ostheer Suggestions

Re: Music of the Ostheer

I understand I'm reviving a dead thread, but as far as we know the issue hasn't been settled yet.

Besides, just recently found this.
Der Waidmannsheil Marsch / Hunter's salute march

Not all marches have to be all happy and cheery, this one has a sad tone to it, with a bit of trumpet wrapped in (for those heroic moments.)
Deutsches militärisches Zeremoniell "Zapfenstreich der hannoverschen Leichten Infanterie"

I love that marschlieder. I could see that being the song played for the Ostheer when you have beaten the Soviets. Great one! +1

Does it have any appeal, surpassing the sound part (has it got any special meaning, where does it ascend from)?

Re: Music of the Ostheer

@VonSchnitzel

Crimson + Wings of Prey sound way too heroric imo ... Not an ideal sound for the ostheer, they should have a evil/brutal sounding theme ...

Brutal as dis!

Anyway theres allready a EF soundtrack in progress.

Re: Music of the Ostheer

Come across this music from a german-base tragic film "Das Boat" it should do the job fine.

It grim, struggle, and ironic. Think it very fit the theme of Ostheer (fighting for the fatherland, with slim chance of victory).

Link is here

Re: Music of the Ostheer

I think we shouldn't go too deep and dark because then it makes it sound like playing the Ostheer is a big mistake. Balance is needed.

It should also be worth noting that there was an Eastern Front before Stalingrad when German spirits were high. We shouldn't have all melancholy or dark feeling music.

Re: Music of the Ostheer

hmm... do you means something like the star war's imperial march? Not that I suggested we use a Darth Vader's theme or anything, just want to confirm the concept.

Re: Music of the Ostheer

Well. The problem it that the music shouldnt be so popular.
Most people know the soundtrack of "Das Boot" or will recognise parts of famous marches.
Fortunately EF-Dev-team had a music composer who will make some new music for EF.
Because of this i would prefer when Ostheer get music with historical music elements or parts of historical music (e.g. "Die Wacht am Rhein [The start melody of the Wochenschau] or "Deutschlandlied" or stuff like this) and new components. All in all the music had to fit to the rest of the CoH soundtrack so we wont and cant take metal or electro elements for new music xD

Re: Music of the Ostheer

Composer is right... a composer is anyone who creates music through musical notation for whatever purpose. Obviously we don't have the London Philharmonic at our disposal... more likely our composer makes/composes music in Sibelius or something similar :P

Would be better for Russia, but I like it.

By this "composer" it sounds like he'll be making synthesized music instead of something from an actual band or orchestra. I don't like the sound of it.

I think we should really wait until the technology is actually available to have natural-sounding synthesized music.

Sounds good. I probably shouldn't jump to conclusions. Just most computer music I hear that attempts to sound like a band or orchestra fails miserably and sounds too fake, too machine-like.

I'd like to hear some of his music, though.

Dude, there's a difference between being "pissed off" and just "didn't like something" ::)... Also don't find any relation with your last sentence... since you are the one pissed of not him ;D.

Re: Music of the Ostheer

To be honest IJoe, I think you're just bitching for the sake of it. You're entitled to your opinion but you argument sounds a little weak. What is "it's a clichè" supposed to mean? Maybe you just have a different perspective because you're Russian? (I think?)

Personally, I like it. It may be a bit Hollywood stereotypical but so is the rest of the CoH music. I think it sounds fantastic for something computerised and Icarus is truly talented. I like the other pieces I've heard too but nobody else here will have heard them yet.

EF is lucky to have such a talented team.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.
#59242

Re: Music of the Ostheer

+1 for Medal of Honor's theme.

Also, for the one about historical accuracy, I think the theme here might be a good add-on to the MoH one.

#59244

Re: Music of the Ostheer

Just so you guys know, clear vocals like that don't fit with the CoH music theme and won't be used. Also, LOL Maus. Has to be in every thread in the Ostheer suggestions doesn't it.

#59250

Re: Music of the Ostheer

I see.. so no vocal, in that case I have another theme that gave the same feeling but off-vocal which can be posted if anyone interested.

But main point is that is this the kind of feel we're looking for? I mean, I agreed that MoH can just do the job but for the supporting element that we can put in to a remix, is this kind of theme is what your people is looking for.

might sound a little too inquisitive, but just want to be informed. With all due respect.
#59296

Re: Music of the Ostheer

Well EF likely won't need to take music from anywhere else since they have Icarus. Though perhaps he can use ideas and inspiration from pieces in this thread. Try listening to the Wehrmacht and PE themes to get a better understanding of the type of music in CoH.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

@Blackbishop & BurroDiablo
I guess, I should've used another word, instead of "piss off", to express my feelings.
@GodlikeDennis
The thing is that, being a russian, as you have noticed correctly, I'd prefer to see a russian theme, which is based on some russian music, not some hollywood nonsense, or fun but silly disco.
Is it too much? Well, "I know, I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one..."  ;)

Info for lazy and apathetic people:  his real name was Joseph Jugashvily, where the second part would bear the meaning similar to "Stalin", in case of literal translation to russian; "Stalin" is his pseudonym.

That's great! Will be some music elements from the "Panzerlied" or "Unser Rommel"? (no, not you xD) I catc this topic and read some pages, it's funny when IJoe goes rampant. :) No offense.

Here is a communist  music called "With the party, with the nation" (I think, it's not accurate tranlation). It's musical masterpiece, but with discusting propaganda lyrics. Commies had here in my country for 60 years. But back on topic. I think that's a good thing the musical composer guy can treat old themes with new elements. Looking forward to hear it. :)

Re: Music of the Ostheer

To assert that someone has "a lot in common with stalin" when you do not know anything about him is also crazy, with my respect. I wouldnt like to be compared with stalin, even with jokes. Thats also your case I guess? :P


Also, for the ostheer theme, I would suggest the MoW main theme, its kinda cool, though I dont think it would be the best choice.
