[UA] Thematic music/songs/soundtracking for UA

[James O'Rance]

Hello folks -

Listening to "More Pink" at 4:17 am, it occurred to me that Tori Amos' "Take 
to the Sky" would be a grand song to have playing in the background when a 
UA character channelled the Flying Woman.

It's an hour later, and I'm thinking about how useful it would be to have a 
list of UA themes, archetypes, motifs, and magickal styles with a variety of 
songs and pieces of music that suit each.

Hopefully such a list would be fairly large and eclectic; many people do not 
possess a Tori collection even as modest as mine, and they might prefer some 
more hard-edged suggestions. Actually, I find that baroque and classical 
music contrasts and compliments horrible violence quite nicely.

It's actually unusual for me to run a game without some thought given to 
soundtracking it; when I had to do so at a con recently, the experience was 
very strange. I ended up modulating my voice a lot more than usual create 
the mood that I wanted.

I expect that this has been discussed in the past; if someone has kept a 
record of such suggestions, it'd be a useful resource to see.


Cheers,

James O’Rance
