I fixed Fallout's music by creating a totally new genre | Unraveled
Рет қаралды 3,109,667
4 жыл бұрынFallout's lore has one massive problem: the music hasn't changed in centuries. So Brian David Gilbert unraveled a totally new genre of music that should be heard in the wasteland.
(SLIGHT SPOILER: If you'd like to hear more from the musician who helped create the end song, check out their stuff here: / @skatunenetwork )

In my head canon, I have a theory as to why the music had not changed. Around the 1960s, America invents a new audio format that is designed to be more accessible, easier to listen to, and ultimately sound a lot clearer than the vinyl records they had been using. The trade-off however is that these cartridges are not as durable and will deteriorate after say 100 years (or maybe are susceptible to radiation damage). These become the top new audio format for their ease of use and clarity, but of course after the war happens and the bombs drop all these cartridges are lost with time. Therefore, the only remaining recordings are the ones on the original vinyl format from the 30’s-60’s.

if youll allow me to be a bit of a music nerd for a moment, while the statements "ska came before reggae/reggae came from ska" are technically true the dont exactly tell the whole story. in the current zeitgeist ska is synonymous with ska punk, which in and of itself is a derivative of ska, borrowing the fastpaced nature and melodic basslines of ska, which was a west indian genre that was essentially reggae but with a faster tempo. reggae came before ska /punk/ but ska came before reggae. sorry if this is over explainery, this is a really important distinction to me because i grew up in the west indies and didnt even know ska used to refer to a purely west indian genre instead of being shorthand for ska punk, and it was really interesting and kinda weird to find out.

You are referring to Home on the Wastes and Streets of New Reno. I would argue he doesn't create anything new and in fact the songs he plays are fully plagurized with wasteland words inserted. You might say that in the fallout universe he invented them, except the original writers of those songs exist in the fallout world as other songs by them make the radio. Therfore, I say he discovered obscure songs then swapped in wasteland names and stole credit for it. Meaning he did NOT write new music.

I would argue that all the artists in the fallout universe just became raiders. They're *very* particular about the placement of body parts and blood splatters around their lairs. It's all very feng shui.

This is an excellent point!!! Look at the super mutants… it’s just a mess of guts and body parts strewn about randomly. Then look at the raiders; intentional placement. Aesthetic principles are definitely applied. Art isn’t dead, it’s simply devolved into different mediums

I have to womder if BDG created this video knowing the punchline would be that he invented ska, or if he venuinely thought about how the new genre should sound and realized it's essentially ska. It's amazing either way.

In Fallout: New Vegas, you can recruit a man by the name of the Lonesome Drifter to play music at the Tops Casino. The songs that he plays were made specifically for the game and reference many post-war things such as Fire Geckos and Super Mutants. The songs are country/folk ballads about the Mojave Wasteland, New Reno (a location in fallout 2), and the singer was, (I think) Josh Sawyer, the lead developer of FNV.

Side-note: there are actually a handful of, if not new songs, at least remixed/lyrically altered songs, in Fallout New Vegas specifically--Green Clouds & Dust Whirls, Streets of New Reno, New Vegas Valley, and Home on the Wastes. All adapted/sung by Joshua Sawyer as the in-universe characters Bruce Isaac and the Lonesome Drifter.
