If we are truly implementing something as epic as a magitech mount, it needs a good theme song.
I would 1000% recommend composing music based on the very first song ever used with Magitech travel: Terra's theme from FFVI. It has a melancholy feel with an addicting rhythm, it would be the perfect option. Perhaps any combination of these will help inspire Yoshida's team.
Here are examples of the original, and some remixes:
Original
Dissidia Remix
Orchestral
Guitar remix
Piano
EDIT: Nice additions Reinheart! love the concept art on #3 too :D
EDIT: Totally called it: Terra's theme confirmed in Live letter 6!Quote:

Not a fan of things relating to Terra.
When I see the magitek I think of this :D
Power Suit themes.

+1 OP.
When I think of Magitek I think FFVI. And when I think of FFVI, the first track that comes to mind is Terra's theme. Easily my favorite track in the game. -

Terra's theme only works in the idea of "Lonely loneliness on a mission to become more lonely".
If you ask me, Magitek armor doesn't really need a theme. It's ****in' Magitek Armor. -

Though it's somewhat removed from the scenes in which Magitek Armor is actually used, I think "Devil's Lab", the theme of the Magitek Research Facility, might be a better fit. It puts me more in mind of magical technology being built and unleashed to wreak havoc.

I like the original, Dissidia and Orchestrated version. I think that Tera's theme should stay in FFVI though, after all it's Tera's theme and not Magitek armor's theme in the same way that chocobo's theme is the chocobo music.

I don't think it should be Terra's theme, but they should definitely incorporate Terra's theme into whatever theme they come up with for them. Almost like an easter egg, instead of a blatant rip.

For the sound I would like less trash-can-banging noises and more "whirr-Whirr" I know it looks steam punk but it doesn't have to sound like it was built in my garage.
Can you imagine walking around all the time? Bang! Bang! Bang!
It's going to drive me and everyone else to mute their sound. -
04-05-2013, 08:21 AMDuuude007Well, that is already a feature being added.Quote:

I agree that terra's theme fits it. just not in the depressing tempo in opening cutscene
