The music is too heavy. Background music should be subtle or else its just annoying
Plus +1 for the Music

Honestly i'd be fine with keeping things separate as they were, but the grand company themes really should be the company leader themes as well (cutscenes, within their office, special company based instances, or during special Company sponsored events.
I like both themes, so it would be hard for me to decide anyway lol.
This is Final Fantasy. Every FF title or even almost every JRPG has background music that stands out/ evokes a certain feeling for that area. For instance:Quote:

I agree with a day and night theme. Current theme for the day and something more subtle at night. Something more calm. But they have to fade well.

I like LL and Grid new music (company music) and they fit in the city...Ul'dah on the other hand...idk I just pictured that place to be more middle eastern (they have a Sultan don't they?)
Music similar to these would be awesome and make the city seem more "grand" (imo)

I prefer the regular city music.
The goal of cities isn't to make you feel like you're part of some sort of movement - the movement is the companies; and most FF cities, in general, have music that is supposed to make you feel comforted [Ul'dah], or instill some sort of pride/amazement in you [Limsa, even though I hate the track]. Gridania's music sort of fails to do either.
The Ul'dah music is really nice, but interestingly the Christmas music also works incredibly well with Ul'dah. -

I think the GC music is nice. But it is too "epic" to be used as city background themes in the long run. City themes need be a bit more toned down. These will become grating in a few days/weeks.
