It reminds me a lot of Gen V's rare encounter theme. The "tingy"ness of the instruments is similar.

I wonder if it's a similar thing, having a standard and rare encounter wild theme?

Too upbeat, not "epic" enough. As a lover of piano, it has just too much piano. If it sounded more abrupt, I would like it-- After all, it's supposed to go to the scene of your Pokemon attacking something. I'm sure it'll grow on me, but as of right now, I really don't like it.

Maybe I didn't phrase it correctly. It's just too toned down for the sort of situation. Each piece of music that goes into this game is theme music, and I don't personally feel "battle" from this particular one, if that makes sense.

It sounds like a step back from what Gen VI gave us.

I agree, but lets compare apples to apples with battle themes. Honestly, every battle theme grates me a lot over time because they are so repetitive. Even Gen VI, and it was a good one. Why can't they have like 4-5 variations that randomly play?

From an ease-of-implementation standpoint it is a hell of a lot more convenient to make a short riff or riffs and loop them for a track where it is needed. That sorta explains the repetitiveness of the tracks. It's nothing new and it's not contained to Pokemon. Many, many games uses loops for tracks in their games.

To look at both battle themes, XY had a more... real(?) sound to it. Guitar, etc. The only thing that sounded off was the super obvious drum machine. It didn't seem as obviously midi where as SM sounds like something from Gen IV or V. That doesn't make it bad but it does seem like a step backwards.

>>26699092
Music is super subjective like that. There is no correct answer when it comes to personal taste. I liked most of it. Especially Sycamore's theme and the re-done Guidepost theme.

XY had a lot of great environmental themes and what not. Lumiose sounded nice, Sycamore's theme was smooth as fuck, but given that the battle themes make up the bulk of what youll be listening to, theyre the most important, so when theyre lackluster, it hits harder.

This has to be bait. The music was underwhelming as hell. The gym leader music sucked, the town music sucked and the battle themes were a little more bland than B/W. But I do agree there are some good tracks. Such as the one you posted, Lysandre's and Shalour city.

Here's a slightly longer version.

Poor Masuda. In an interview from a year or two ago he acknowledged that he was running out of musical ideas and probably wouldn't ever return to his prime.

The real brilliance of the composers' work from past games is that they understood the importance of melody, and not just rhythm or style. I don't hear any real melody in this, just a disjointed series of riffs and key changes. There's little distinction between the intro and the main portion either.

It isn't something I normally care about but the instrumentation is also very weak; it lacks force or vigor of any kind. Battle themes should be bassier and more driving.

Unova's battle theme had a lot going on but it still had an ordered sense of escalation and solid melody.

Kalos' attempt to trim fat went too far and caused the song to be toothless while Alola's copy the busy part but has no idea what to do past the first three seconds, so it just wings it and hopes it'll sound like a decent battle theme. I can just tell that whoever composed it had artist's block the whole way through.

Yeah, I don't consider the BW theme structurally unsound. And you're right in that Kalos' was a little spare for its own good. Most of the battle themes were, unfortunately.

It's funny, I always notice the instances of artist's block too. That's because I sometimes write music for fun, and I can immediately relate.

Some people are just preeminently talented, but for most the difference between mediocre and great is willingness to scrap what you have again and again until something good emerges. I don't see a willingness to do that here.

It was several people. The battle themes were split between Junichi Masuda and Minako Adachi, and the overworld themes were written by Shota Kageyama, Hitomi Sato, and more by Minako Adachi.

I'm fairly certain this is a Masuda battle theme, and it's not that he isn't comfortable with the paradigm, it's that inspiration is a lot harder to come by after six generations and dozens of themes all fundamentally representing the same idea.

If that's the looping point then a fucking 5 year old wrote this theme by using stock music

This one's not that great either.

To date I've only ever heard one fanmade theme that was as good as the ones from the main series:

It's jumbled, but the piano mix makes it somewhat interesting. Personally it stands out to me because of how much it carries its own flavor.

/vp/ as a whole is overreacting. Back when the gym leader music was leaked for gen 6, people hated it, stopped caring to hate it, and that was it.

Some of us actually care about the way the tune is written and not just "flavor" or "style". Any dickhead can jam for a minute on a keyboard and come up with something interesting in flair but glaringly lacking in substance. You need to develop a more critical ear. No wonder you tolerate such mediocrity.

How good Masuda was? Or Ichinose? Because Masuda wrote the Lance/Red theme.

I don't hate it, but I definitely don't like it. I hope the rest of the soundtrack isn't this lackluster.

Also why do all of the trailers have absolute shit sound quality. It sounds muffled. Especially the sound effects.

Weak. Sounds like it wants to go into the great melody of Gen 5's battle music but it can't and it doesn't find its own identity. Poor choice of instrumentation.

Sun and Moon feels like it's going back to what Black and White did, but keeping it more fun and friendly than tense.

Personally, I like Sun and Moon's theme already. It feels adventurous.
