Yep. Seriously good work. That's either one gifted writer, or he did a boat load of research ... or both. Whatever it is, the outcome is gorgeous.

@@Julia-lk8jn I feel like Christopher tin set the bar so freaking High that any Civ music must be special

@@kerred yeah, baba yetu set the bar so high

ironically the Cree people disliked their characterization in this game lmao

yes

I am like 1/4 Cree and this makes me feel happy to see in a game i love

@@Jay-vv6wl being an actual first nations member, this music makes me proud of who i am ( im shoshone, not cree )

I’m only Eskimo, and this makes me proud of being cree.

@Eric Kassebaum You should check out civ5 then, the Shoshone people are a playable civilization in that game

Rồng Well, your name fits.

Rồng nah bison and buffalo are two different species though belong in the same biological family.

Let's make our global culture sustainable, for all eternity!

@@Jailytics it’s bison

Thank you for your post, I'm sorry for your loss, but as time moves on we suffer hardships and grief. It molds us and those that continue to walk forward will continue to better the world and If you want, keep your family blood line going on. Stay strong my friend, for the native americans have not yet gone, and you are an example of one of them.

Many civs keep the vocals, in fact I think only Ethiopia leaves them behind? As far as I remember anyway. Still, I like your interpretation anyway.

Some civs also gain vocals in later eras, such as the Ottoman industrial theme or Russia's atomic one. But I agree that the vocals in this one feel the most proudly defiant

Well if you look at First Nations music a lot of it even modern day has been about the vocals the chanting and lyrics remember most of these cultural s did not write down history but passed it on trough song and oral teaching

Hi, someone told me that in my previous life I was a Cree tribal chief, from 1628 to 1710......

He had to do it to em.

But the Cree were Canadian

@@NoahHalfSquid I know. Native American can refer to all peoples who lived in the americas pre-contact, not just those in the United States. The term is in fact too broad though, so I'll change it.

@@agaz3232 It was exactly what you had to says. No need to changed

XDDDDD

It's American Indian. Indian American means people from the country of India.

I prefer the Industrial theme

Medieval soooooo good

Civ ost is heaven if you like fusion. Sure there's ethnic fusion and thematic osts everywhere, but where else would you be able to hear this kind of music this consistently and the closest to authentic?

Indians?? Sorry but he is not Indian at all

in civ 5 you had to stop hiawatha early or he'd spam cities across the map infinitely

All nation shall be conquered!

@@bloxknight1145 American Indians - Native Americans The term "Indian," in reference to the original inhabitants of the American continent, is said to derive from Christopher Columbus, a 15th century boat-person. Some say he used the term because he was convinced he had arrived in "the Indies" (Asia), his intended destination.

That's how they gitcha

Hey! I have some Sioux tribe ancestry as well!

I'm Shoshone and Chippewa Cree, im glad to see representation in this game and the last one they made too

Algonquin here, and I agree. The music is the main reason why I always put the Cree in every game I start. Currently hoping the final addition to the New Frontier Pass is the Iroquois

I think the cree empire in the game is a cop off of the iron confederacy so there may have been some Sioux in the "cree" empire.

@@maddoxbellrose7679 I am sure there was. Elders spoke of not just trade with the Iron Confederacy, but coordinated military action on both sides of the US/Canada border. The Cree best fighters were the Plains Natives. Sitting Bull even escaped to the safety of Canada before both Governments' started c racking down on them. One of their reasons? They "claimed" there were British Indians among the ranks and Montanans feared from attacks on both sides.

It's absolutely amazing and I 100% agree with you. I learned about the Cree through this game, and now I wish I were part of that amazing cultural heritage.

Well, if you have a good spirit you can laugh at that comment, but in the end, I appreciate the Cree songs, even though this comment is a bit hilarious lol

Seriously one of the best, if not THE best soundtrack I’ve heard from any game. This is pure art, they better have won some awards for this.

Here's a neat fact: Poundmaker gained his name for his ability to lead buffalo into "pounds". A pound was a sort of manmade enclosure resembilng a corral, where the buffalo were trapped and slaughtered. According to tradition, Poundmaker could entice a lead buffalo to lead her herd into the pound by drumming and singing a special song. Source: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poundmaker

Native Americans don’t really have lyrics, it’s just something we learn and retain over time.

Made me spit my drink

they still have some land

Nearly every civilization has lost land, I'm just glad they are so adamant at keeping their traditions and culture alive

Not just our land, but our history, our language, our dignity, and our lives.

Yeah, imperialism may be fun in Civ but it just sucks IRL. At least, we can be grateful that not all native peoples were killed, and that many of their practices, cultures, and languages survive to this day even in a reduced state. Perhaps one day, in a more enlightened era...

When you can't count on the English and French and all the other "allies" that betrayed you.

When hanging out with the Vietnamese in Vietnam and your lover’s country gets invaded by the french. *_*

@@_spectre_1589 Infact no land belongs to anybody on this world. We were all nomads in this world for millions of years. Humans are only temporary on this world like the dinosaours before us. Maybe there will be no human race in 100 yrs. I just say that slogan to annoy the Trump supporters in a humourous way. In an ideal world we could all live together in peace but unfrotunately we don't live in an ideal world and human nature is strongly against this sentiment

We still here my man just not as much though lol

Uncultured swine

@@awesomeODST Well I don't know how real Cree music sounded so i can't say if the producer did a good/bad job in making it authentic. What i was refering to as bad was the stoneage version of the song. The tribal drum is wet and gross sounding. The harmony is dissonant and what feels random. The "vibrato" (unsure if that is the correct term) they have in the song is so badly intonated and horrid sounding. It works in the later eras where there is a harmonic backround. But without anything else it sounds like a speciall class music preformance. They also tone down the "vibrato" alot in the later eras. Futher cementing my belifes that it was made to sound unmusical. To summerize it's an overinviting song with a basic meldoy with dissonat acompenying harmony. There is nothing in the backround to justify the broken harmony. It is not a good track for backround music. It's fluctuations in volume is extremly anyoing too. In the end it comes down to musical preference. If this is how their music sounded in reality, I feel very sorry for them. Is it strange that I don't enjoy it?

@@bullar400 Typical white's logic, musics of different parts of the world were very different from each others. Just because it don't follow the rules of "your" kind of music doesn't mean it's bad

AlSo I cHeCkEd YoUr ChAnNeL, your music isn't that good either

АЛЕКСАНДР ФИЛИПС actually the vocals are by the Poundmaker singers, a Cree group that has been keeping this art form alive for centuries. So yea it’s spot on
