Music of Civ VI

[stealth_nsk]

What I am concerned about is if they are gonna replace Sogno Di Volare in the opening. I will miss Christopher Tin's music if they will replace it for R&F

That was a pain in Civ4, yes. Baba Yetu was a marvel.
On the other hand, Sogno Di Volare is a bit less great, so if Firaxis has proper replacement, I'm ok.

I agree that Babu Yetu has it beat by a landslide, but for some reason Sogno Di Volare isn't grating to me. In comparison the BNW theme I loved the first few times, but it became absolutely unbearable after a dozen or so repeats. I don't know what it is about songs that make them easily listenable-to, but Babu Yetu and Sogno Di Volare both had it, and that's probably one of my main hopes for the new theme.

But the Warlords theme (al Nadda) was pretty great too...

The BtS theme less so, but at least they gave you the option to switch back to Baba Yetu

 

[God of Kings]

Once R&F is released, there should be an option to switch to Sogno di Volare.

I'd at least like hear the R&F theme in its entirety before mourning the loss of Sogno di volare...

Well, the music from the R&F announcement sounds good to me. At least compared to Terra Novum. I mean, as someone already said, it's good to hear for the few first time, but it can get really annoying. But you are right, Songo di Volare sounds really great, and I will be kinda missing that.

I wouldn't rule out that they've contracted Tin again. They have a bigger budget than they did for Civ4.

Georgia First Listen up!

Georgia First Listen up!

I'm very pleased they have Georgian vocals. I was afraid it would be pure instrumental (not that it's bad). I felt chills all over my body hearing all different eras of "Shen Khar Venakhi" (Thou Art a Vineyard), hymn written by David the Builder i believe, and by Kavkasia Trio! (though they always go for local musicians or on east coast)

Georgia First Listen up!

Nice! Not my favorite but still good- very impressed with the overall level of musicality throughout Civ6.

So Shen Khar Venakhi is the inspiration for the Georgian themes?

 

[Morningcalm]

What a lovely set of themes! Very calming, and actually one of my favorites out of Rise and Fall so far. Oddly has a lot of Civ IV medieval flavor.

Georgia First Listen up!

I listened to it, and I was astonished by how amazing it is. Especially the Industrial and Atomic versions. They are so beautiful!

Too bad we have to wait for them whole twenty-eight days to listen to them

it seems so.
damn I love Firaxis

It's always longer when you wait for something you really wish

You are younger than me and still in High School, that's why it feels longer....

 

[Kimiimaro]

That could be probably the reason why

Btw. Before Georgia First Listen, I was pretty confident that the first theme I'm going to listen will be Mongolia. Now I can't decide between Georgia and Mongolia. They're both amazing pieces of music

I don't really like the earlier Georgian themes, they are a bit slow... And I'm not big on Christian chanting.....though I did like the Chanting in Civ5 and Civ4's Byzantine themes.

I'm just very impressed with Industrial and Atomic versions (which also applies to the Cree and Mongolia ). Hearing them for the first time just made me stunned and amazed. That's just how much I like them. I hope Tamar will spawn often in my games
