Trailer song was good, I'm not to fussed with music in trailers. I'm more interested in the visuals, music should complement it thematically, which it does.

 

Really enjoyed the old Tongue music we got in season 1, not sure how I'd feel about modern songs getting thrown in.. maybe make them renditions with the old tongue 😋

 

In saying that, I found this banger the other day.

I didn't love the trailer song. While I don't like that particular song, I'm not necessarily concerned about it representing the music on the show more generally.

 

When modern music is mixed into non-modern or not-our-world movies or shows, it can be effective -- but I think only when done really intentionally, as a way to bridge a modern audience with a story set somewhere very different, or add modern commentary to a historic moment. For example, Hamilton does have rap battles...but the contrast of the modern music with the historic moment is kinda the point of the whole musical.

 

I don't see a lot of good opportunity for anything like that in Wheel of Time, unless we glimpse a turning of the wheel that's actually supposed to be our age, in which the music could be an excellent clue. I think given the universe it's set in the music doesn't necessarily need to feel "old timey" either though, just different enough to make us feel like we are elsewhere. I think having very recognizable pop stars singing in the actual show would be a bit too much, no matter how thematically related the song are.

see what you did there. "cough GoT cough"

 

I still think it would be interesting to hear certain modern music, using non-modern instruments using entirely different or no-lyrics.

I will try to edit a similar video when I have time. Now I have many problems with my studies, I think thanks to  paper on nursing I will be able to write most of the written works. Thanks to this service, I can more efficiently use my time for classes and deepening my specialty

Nice song!
