I’m 100% certain we’re getting a good fixing of Flume. FH2 had a remix of Hyperparadise, FH3 has a Future Classic radio station, the label Flume is signed to and frankly, he is the “main course” of Future Classic’s offerings
Maybe Cut Copy will make three in a row for this game.
There’s a lot of good indie and/or electronic artists down under. I’d imagine that PG would include a bit more aussie tunes for us to hear this time around.
(BTW, I’m an American who just has gotten into some good Oceania music lately :P)
A PUNK STATION? EPITAPH? HELL YES!!
If they’re putting in real punk music, I’d try to recruit songs from Fat Wreck Chords too, provided licensing and whatnot works out well, but I feel like the punk station will just end up being a collection of the pop “punk” bullcrap that’s unfortunately become popular recently.
But if the punk station ends up being an actual punk station, with music from NOFX, Descendents, Bad Religion, Good Riddance, Anti-Flag, etc., that’d be friggin sick!
The E3 trailer music is just stunning. Looking forward to this, and it’ll be interesting to see how Groove Music will be implemented with regards to streaming the music. Will the be a separate interface? A separate dahsboard app that will run in tandem with the game? Or is it as simple as one’s OneDrive account will be synced and played?
Apparently rock music now being covered by Vagrant for alternative/indie and Epitaph for metal/punk. There won’t be a station dedicated to playing rock music that isn’t tied to either label. Not a fan of that to be honest, I wanted to see classic songs like “Down Under” by Men at Work, or modern hits like “Throne” by Bring Me the Horizon. Guess I’ll have to use Groove for that. Block Party is the new hip-hop station.
Sweet Hospital is back :D. I remember when that station unlocked, and Danny Byrd (one of my fav artists) came on as 1st track, I knew I was in for a good soundtrack to my racing
I remember in the first installment of the horizon series their was a song called Language by Porter Robinson, This would be played in the opening cinematic and to be honest was just amazing and epic it fitted so well and got you amped up every single time you booted the game up. Now in Horizon 2 we got some lifeless soundtrack which is played in the opening cinematic which i feel is slightly depressing and it really kills the experience as you have to listen to it every single time you start the game.
So now that Horizon 3 is being launched really soon i feel that this song Paris Blohm- Something about you will be an amazing fit to the opening cinematic in the game.
“Language” was definitely a perfect opening to Forza Horizon. I liked Nocturne by Keeno was a decent one too (FH2 opening), but I don’t get the same goosebumps feeling whenever I hear it like Language.
As for my vote for the opening for FH3, I think that People on the Ground by Royalston would be a great song for this. It is an epic song, and it also is a Hospital Records artist, so it could easily be on the radio station. Maybe it sounds too much like the other one, but just imagine a scene like the ones shown in the first two games.
At E3 we had FH3 with fantastic song by CHVRCHES so I thing that the best would be when they will be add another song by this artists.
