Music of the Ostheer

[HyperSniper999]

How about the Laridah March?

Or the Defillier March of Carl Faust?
Defilier Marsch von Carl Faust
I know marches aren't liked by a few because "they don't fit the game's theme" but still, I can't help but invision endless waves of Wehrmacht troops marching when I hear this.

To mirror the characterisitcs of the eastern warfare and the german army, I think the theme for the Ostheer should be an agressive, grim and imperial sound with an epic touch, creating a sense of imminent danger and mortal fate. The Music of conquerors bound to their death for Fuehrer and Vaterland. Bass, deep percussions, no chanting.

From what I've heard so far, those songs fit the requirements best:

- Wolfenstein Music: SS Elite Guard Assault (just imagine starting a game with this... I'd get a nerdgasm.. xD)
- Master and Commander: Into the fog
- Stalingrad Soundtrack Score

EDIT: Also this one from Wofensetin is simply perfect:
Return to Castle Wolfenstein Soundtrack: Mission

cheers,
Hans

What about "Das Engellandlied"??
Englandlied full.

[Seeme]

 HansBlix, its pretty good but all it really is is an a "bum, bum bum." Not only will that get boring but it will probaly get a headache after awhile.

And blackbishop, its to bright and cheerful. DO coh really sound like that?

I also have an idea, lets find music for the Soveit before we start thinking of the Obsteer.

It's a game, not the real war.
And I thought we did find Soviet music. Are the Hunt for Red October and the other one only placeholders?

So... you want the Donkey Kong score? Mario Bonus World theme? .... dont get your comment...

I mean, you want really dark "marching to death" style music when that won't be necessary since it's only a game.
The way I see it, the music should not be grim and imply you're making a mistake playing the Ostheer, but instead that of an ideal war using marching music.

[HansBlix]

The music should generate a specific mood which fits to the game. For me, the music i proposed does that. It creates a grim, powerful and dynamic atmosphere - perfect to get my Pio's ass up. But well, taste is different.

For me, marching music puts me into a state of humorous nostalgia... not something I wanna start a game of CoH....

[GeneralSatan]

I'd have to agree with Comerade2012 in using the Das Boot mix. prehaps the dev's could chop it up to suit their needs, and use the fast moving sequences for something like, oh, say an infantry chare or something of that nature.

[GamblerSK]

i like music from Blitzkrieg game

this one is great
Blitzkrieg Music - German Exploration Theme (Onward to the East)

Blitzkrieg Music - Combat Theme 1 (Rushing at the Enemy)

Blitzkrieg Music - Exploration Theme 6 (March to Front)

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.)

[comrade2012]

If your lookin for epic:

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

I know alot of people wanted a more melancholy OH menu song. So here is one.
In Memorandum

Another one.
