I agree with this wholeheartedly! We need variety for our babies' music!

They have changed mount music before. A4S Gobwalker Mount was changed because it played “Borderlands” before. Same with Alte Roite from O4S. It also had generic mount music before, and was changed to Neo-Exdeath’s theme after people complained about it.
A couple other cash shop mounts were changed from “Borderless” to the music from Hulbreaker (lvl 50 dungeon version) and the PotD Floors 1-10 theme.
Still hoping for this! Would be great.
I honestly wish Borderless wouldnt play on 90% of the mounts. It's not a bad song, mind you, but it gets way too damn repetitive, and it honestly makes the mounts feel less special. Like with all of the Beast Tribe mount, the Mikoshi from Namazu Tribe the ONLY one to have a theme related to it's Beast Tribe area, and the rest either do Borderless or the old ARR mount theme?
Not even sure why they did not do this in the first place.
I did a tally a while ago and it's pretty amazing the disparity between the Heavensward mount theme and other music. Out of 170 mounts, the ARR mount theme only plays for 20 of them, the Heavensward mount theme plays for a whopping 78 mounts. There really is no reason for it to have seen continued use past Heavensward, honestly. Stormblood "generic" mounts should have had their own Stormblood theme, perhaps something with an aquatic vibe to it since HW was the "flying mount" expac and SB was the "swimming mount" expac. Shadowbringers is doubly insulting because not only did they persist in using the HW flight theme for mounts, they actually already had a perfectly good unique ShB mount theme in place with the Amaro theme that they chose to only use for one mount.
Hoping to see a dev comment on this since they just changed the BGM on another mount as of 5.3 (the Pterodactyl mount)
