Theme Song Thread

Postby Tonbo Misa on Fri Mar 31, 2017 11:16 pm

For the uninitiated; this thread is for music that inspires your characters, that's inspired by scenes, the game, other characters, and so forth. Feel free to post and share links to music you have for any of those. :D

For Misa, I couldn't help but think of Touch by Daft Punk. Very ethereal and thoughtful, yet different, like she is, and touch is something she's focused on without her sight, just as the lyrics are in their own spacey way. Edit - Not to mention the yearning of needing more. Wanting it more, but needing that extra of sight.

Kamisama no Kamisama by Hanae was a great inspiration for me when writing up this character. It's cutesy tones helped me get into the mindset, and the anime it's from was also an inspiration on some things. :)

Both that show and that song are absolutely adorable! And if Nanami is your inspiration, I <3 you already!

Inspiration was something along the lines of "what would've Nanami and Tomoe's kid or grandkid be like?" :D

Healthy doses of both Nanami and Tomoe in this one.

For once I'm not the one making this thread.

Radical.

Anyway, Taira kind of has multiple angles... so I'm having a lot of trouble settling on a theme...

This is a good start I guess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHakl2bMQYI / https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkVx2XYalzQ

I don't really do the whole 'theme based on the meaning of the lyrics' or anything. My themes mostly just boil down to how a song makes me feel and whether that feeling fits the character.

So with that: A theme for Yuzuki.

I tend to also go for how a song feels and I often end up choosing songs without lyrics. Here's one for Ameka. Delicate and somewhat traditional-sounding, but with underlying force.

THIS is a much more appropriate theme for Suteichi.
