Music of the Ostheer

[TheReaper]

Hi guys, I don't know there is a music theme for the mod, but I can advise some good stuff. I've uploaded to youtube a song. See how's work.
Codename: Eastern Front

[Saavedra]

That sounds a bit too electronic.

I would recommend Ride of the Valkyries (a classic), and something out of a movie starring the Germans. I don´t know much about movies with Germans on them, and I don´t think the A Bridge Too Far theme would fit them, so... I´ll leave that to anyone more familiarized with German war movies.

One question TheReaper; u are a litte
Codename Paners freak or 

U post all the time the codename panzers
trailers and now u present us the codename
panzers music...i think company of heroes
IS NOT panzers and so perhaps
u think about new ideas for music and units
and so on 

( Hey! Just as information: i loved panzers, too! )


And as "german music":
Perhaps the Königgrätzer Marsch
or
Preußen Gloria
or
Ace High March.

And yes; i like all the german Marschmusik..and the scotts marchmusic and the british marchmusic and so one xDDD

[TheReaper]

Oh well, I don't deny it Lord Rommel, I'm an addict. Before COH that was my favourite game. Good pointing it out, I'll think of something else. 

[Happycat]

While historically accurate the march music doesn't fits the CoH atmosphere very well, it's too "cheery", needs something more orchestral to match the other factions themes. For the Ostheeer I was thinking something more along the lines of the Panzer Elite's music which could fit perfectly



or something like these

Wolfenstein OST - Airfield Boss

RO -04- Baedeker Blitz

Menu Music?

Der Untergang (La Caída) Soundtrack - Der Krieg Ist Aus 14

why does it have to be from a move? There are many good songs that are not in movies

What about the Hohenfriedberger or even Raedetzky? The latter is Austrian but it was part of Nazi Germany at that time.

Hmm, it appears I don't know how to place a Youtube embedment.

HappyCat: I understand, but the Ostheer is yet another branch of the German military forces in CoH, it deserves a little bit of differance. I say go with the marches, they're quite inspiring.

Have you considered using some of the transiberian orchestra music?

I thought the topic was OSTHEER music? Not Commie...

@Topic: While I also sometimes like marches    I don't think they would fit into CoH. Happycat already pointed that out.

[Rokossovski]

I would like to see a real song of the Wehrmacht like
Fallschirmjäger - Rot scheint die Sonne
Erika...Deutsche Wehrmacht in Farbe
or  "ich hatt einen Kameraden"
Ich hatt' einen Kameraden

[UltimateTobi]

"ich hatt einen Kameraden"
Ich hatt' einen Kameraden

A very, very sad song.

[maxi1991]

Ich hatt' einen Kameraden[/url]

No that's not good. "Ich hatt einen Kameraden" gets played all the time if they burie(don't know how to write) a soldier.
But Erika is a very nice idea.

Lied der Panzergrenadiere(Song of the Mechanised Infantry)

But i guess Erika would be the best.

It is a little classics

I know. But I think it would be nice to have evocative songs that remind people of those movies. The Russians get not one but TWO music compositions from famous movies about Russians.

Basically, I think it´s nice to have people go "hey, I KNOW that song, awesome!" when they start the mod.

But yeah, it´s not an iron-clad argument.
