>Hi,
>
>We are the Belgian company that published the SR music CD.
>
>I just want to point out that the Vampire CD is done by Bart Dijkman, and
the Cthulhu CD by Alex Otterlei. Not by Alex Cremers. Their styles are
totally different.
>
>Discribing the SR soundtrack as a mix between Vangelis' 1492 and Blade
Runner soundtracks is a pretty accurate description, I think. As for using
it for SR RPG or not, that's all up to you guys. What we wanted to get is
an artists impression on the SR universe. Cremers made one from an
outsiders viewpoint. Music that will fill up a lot of the mystiqual gaps,
but not the action.
>Obviously a sequel to this product should be an action-packed CD.
>
>To those who ecpected Techno on the CD, we found out that fast rithms end
up to disturbing play too much and it undermines decent communication
between the GM and the players. That's why we decided to agree on a more
moody CD.
>
>Apart from that, Techno is a hype from our times. We had a psychological
problem with using a today's genre for a time 60 years ahead in the future.
>ofcourse it's Scifi, and it won't take place, but still.
