If Finland were ever included in the game I feel like the Atomic theme should be done in e Metal music format. The "Metal Capitol of the world" is a town in Finland called Lemi. Rock & Roll, Pop and Country are bigger now, but don't come close to the longevity that Jazz has had.Īlso, fun fact, Metal music is really popular in the Nordic region. I guess folk and brass are more "patriotic" but Jazz was probably the biggest genre of music that was born and raised in America. I am curious why Jazz wasn't included for America in the theme.
Its the super ancient ones where I think they took some stylistic liberties with them and based them off of whatever modern nation inhabits that area today. Civilization VI: Gathering Storm - OST Original Game Soundtrack mp3. Modern nations are fairly easy to create a soundtrack for them. They all try to incorporate instruments native to the country they represent (didgeradoo for Australia, Sitar for India, Oud for Arabia, etc.) and try to focus on musical genres that were prolific in that civilizations history.
To my knowledge they all start off "quiet" in the ancient era and build up to the full sound. Atomic era is the full orchestra, brass and also has some synthesized drum beats hidden under the melody. Industrial era changes the instrumentation incorporating in brass, woodwinds and a full orchestra. Medieval era the playing picks up pace and you can hear extra fiddles chiming in at parts. Teddy's theme starts out with a slow banjo and fiddle playing in the ancient era.
That is how it works for me at least, and how it is intended to work in general. Initially, the Roosevelt theme sounds simple.but over the eras, it will eventually (by about Industrial age or maybe Modern) become the Title theme, then progress even beyond that in the Atomic era and beyond. But take note the music file you want to over-write is often a 12+ minute game melody. I did this to SimCity 4 music files once. Sounds like a bug.Īs with all of the themes (at least for the original civs, and I believe for expansion civs too), they start out simple and change with each era advancement. If you were so inclined, you could go into the program files folder where the game files for CIV III are stored and seek out the music files, then over-write the ones you wanted to change with songs of your liking.
