Not only is the Dravidian theme mundane, it’s also not original in the slightest. I heard it in a Vsauce video from several years ago, and I overheard it playing in an Expedition Unknown episode that my parents were watching. It’s like the devs were lazy and didn’t bother coming up with an original theme. Very disappointed.
hey there fellow, thanks for replying yeah i will surely produce a jingle for dravidians but no luck on bengali one as im not bengali myself will do it once exposed to their music.
I’m pretty confused by this comment, and the thread generally. Does going to South India somehow confer on people knowledge of medieval South Indian music?
I mean, I’ve lived in Britain all my life and I honestly can’t tell you how accurate/inaccurate the Britons’ jingle is. Someone would really have to be an expert in medieval music to have any real idea which jingles were and weren’t appropriate. Even if you’re particularly into a certain region’s folk music, assuming that music is the same as it was 500+ years ago seems a huge stretch to me.
Right? I’m not just talking nonsense here, am I?
well u should have been more concise with ur statements as it was open to more than 1 interpretation, if the jingle’s the problem its ok i will make a new one
For sure man u solved my probs, also i dont want the dev to do the same but its ok for the modding section. Hopefully they will reconsider not making the same mistake for the future civs, out
Hey, this is pretty good. The start is a bit abrupt, but it is way better than what we have currently.
@BidGorgon527960, I have no idea what you are talking about. If you want older south Indian music, you have to resort to older versions of Carnatic and folk music. You won’t appreciate it, neither will most other westerners. That is fine, but don’t pretend you understand anything about it fits the civ when you clearly don’t.
The music OP posted is inspired by dappankuthu, which has been iconic of popular tamil music for a long time.
The music Dravidians have right now is a vague mix of north and south indian music played on what seems to be a veena followed by punjabi music. It has nothing to do with the civ.
