Oculus/NW Theme song

by **Oculus** Thu May 07, 2015 6:56 pm

Looking for a theme song for Oculus AND the NW's in general. Please give me your suggestions, I will listen to them, but try putting most in one post to not spam XD.

So far:
Oculus:
Birth of a Hero - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSvnxv_Mh2A&app=desktop
False King - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H25iM7eRiIQ

NW:
Tower of Power - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpBghuTW0hw
Fallen Army - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIDHYqE0Jg4

I personally feel that protectors of the earth will fit Ocu for now, Until I can find a better one

How about some of these?
NW:
two steps from hell - dark ages https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rl7i_YxDl-8
Two steps from hell- archangel https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dJ-QLl5qjLg

Oculus
Two steps from hell - birth of a hero https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JSvnxv_Mh2A

Two steps from hell has a lot of good songs. Feel free to list more songs from their if I missed a good one that fits a theme, and also more songs from others! XD

Pyrr, I still love that song, and like it the more I listen to it, I'll definitely add it to the maybes when I get on a computer.

Thanks for the help! I'll poll my favorite picks later.

Two Steps From Hell - False King
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H25iM7eRiIQ

To me, it fits perfectly for Oculus. Don't know why, but just listen to the music! (Ignore the title). Can't say for NW's in general though, but if we are going to gather an army, it will kinda make sense if we want to RULE DA WORLD!

Ivan Torrent also makes one of the best trailer music, some with vocals. I'd say the best for NW, if they are ambitious and somewhat similar to dragons of space, is Bounds of the Universe:

Tribe Theme:

Are You Listening - Area 11
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-_uqqTOB0go

'Just join the tirbe and feel accepted' The irony. I feel this fits in quite well to be honest.

Occy- when he falls from King:

Euphemia - Area 11
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=grHD49PJHig

One only needs to listen to understand how powerful this is and how well this fits in with Occy's character. DO NOT MISTAKE THE SONG IS REFFERING TO NAZI GERMANY
it's based off Code Geass, an anime. All of their songs are.
...
To be honest new NightWing era is become Nazi NightWing.... Minus the Haulocaust killings (unless Chaotic...)
Just me?
No?

@sly
False kings sounds good, despite the title, I think I'll add that to one of the possibles.
The other one I don't think fits the NW category (even though it is a good song)

Thanks for the suggestions, and leave more if you wish!

@kim
Hi Kim, thanks for e suggestions! I'm looking for more of a instrumental theme song, one that has no vocals or uses them as background noise.

And don't worry, I feel the NW's are similar to a fascist type of government. Nazis gave fascism a bad view, so I can easily see the reference. And Occy isn't a mass murder dictator, so there will be no nazi stuff (grandparent is German who fled, other grandparent is one who sabotaged nazi jeeps as a kid and his family housed spies.). I hope I don't give off the nazi look for NW's, I just want to give the loyalty pays and militaristic vibe for NW's sort of thing. ^^;

@hyruu
Uhh.....no XD. Song way to happy and...idk XD
Maybe it should be the fw' song, NW have a darker pitch to it. Right idea, good national song, just wrong pitch. Wink

It's kind of meh to me, but I think it's because I first heard this from a Michael Jackson video. Trying to push that aside, I thought you wanted instrumental music? This song is sung in another language and I think the vocals are too over-bearing. Though it did preserve a feel of tension in the middle. Didn't really like the ending.

Maybe it will help if you give us a general theme you are looking for? Is Occulus a hero or a tyrant? Are the NW very ambitious, battle hungry etc.?
