Whoever made the soundtrack for this show and decided xylophones and flutes fit a cyberpunk action show needs to be lined up against a wall and shot
It's a good soundtrack. You would probably prefer some generic synthwave crap.
>>150959244>haunting underwater choir noise>strange flute>mildly exciting violinWhat made 90s sound design so kino? I legitimately donr even know how to describe some of the noises they were making in music back then.
>>150959244rude
>>150959359probably skinny puppy.
>>150959244fuck you
>>150959244bad take unc
>>150960921>unc
>>150959331OP is the kind of square who'd dismiss Aeon Flux as being "too WEIRD." No dip the soundtrack would be one such complaint
Æon Flux, not Aeon Flux. Þink before you act
>>150961696>too WEIRDyeah the later episodes do get too weird actually. the time traveling giant baby and belly-button skeleton robots aren't nearly as entertaining as the war episode or the one with the chick who tries to escape breen
>>150962268nta but that's my favorite episode tho. Aeon becomes a normal fucking person/mom at the end of it lmao.

>>150959244It was a different time. They were likely trying to do something "futuristic" which was kind of strange and alien. This was the 90s, so a lot of the synth stuff we associate with futuristic films now sounded dated at that time since it was heavily associated with the 80s. Synths were also SUPER expensive. We have the luxury of using plugins these days plus a whole lot of knockoff synths so you can create an extremely impressive sound with limited means, but in the 90s, you would have had to actually buy a Juno 106 or a Prophet 5 which would have been recorded to DAT. Even then, it's pretty clear the composer had a wavetable synth which would have been pretty top of the line gear in those days. That's how they get those synth sounds that feel like they're making vowel noises (aoooeeeee beeeoiii baaaaaoooow). MIDI instrument capabilities were also limited. You'll notice most cartoons in general had shittier sounding music unless they had the budget to record a live ensemble. Sampling technology has come A LONG way since the 90s, but back then if you wanted the sound of orchestral instruments, you'd get those cheap tinny saamples or, more like, FM Synth patches made to approximate some of those sounds. >>150959359Tech was much more limited. There were synth patches that were designed to sound like choirs or brass or strings, but they didn't really sound like the real thing. The shittiness was part of the aesthetic, but some musicians would further process those sounds so instead of making them sound like a crappy version of an acoustic instrument, they became something else entirely.
>>150959244Nah. It is the weird kind of sci-fi where the usual Deus Ex shit would feel sort of out of place.
>>150959244>Drew Neumann is an American musician and composer of film and television scores. He created the soundtrack of the science fiction animated series Æon Flux, and has composed music for many other shows, including The Wild Thornberrys, Bunnicula, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and Aaahh!!! Real Monsters.
>>150963570>The Wild Thornberrys>Aaahh!!! Real Monstersoh fuck, I thought Mark Mothersbaugh did the music for all the Klasky Csupo stuff. Today I learned
>>150963287... That doesn't make any sense. It still traps flies, not eyes.
>>150959244congrats, you win the absolute most pleb take of the year award
>>150959244Filtered.
Aeon Flux?More like Aeon FUCKS!
Someone post the feet scene...
>>150959244Nah
OP is a fag
>>150959244edgy
>>150966103You mean the blonde woman with monkey feet?
>>150959244Why doesn't that fit? Ghost in the Shell has ancient japanese chanting based on bulgarian choirs
