Pokemon Black and White Music

As far as music goes, I don't think that it is going to be anything new or exciting. I am really looking forward to new battle music though. The Registeel battle music as well as Platinum Giratina music rocked really hard, so something like that would be nice.
 
Well, the snippits of battle music revealed so far have been great. They've had a real 'Gen III mixed with something new' vibe.
 
I'm so exited, if that's the actual music. (Or at least close to it.) I could seriously imagine myself just listening to that.

I personally adored most of the D/P/Pt music, and the HG/SS remixes were pretty good overall, so as long as they stick with our usual music composer I know I'll enjoy most of B/W's music, too.

Definitely looking forward to hearing all of the new battles tunes, and can't wait to hear what they create for the new legendaries. :D

I noticed that, too. I heard the battle music and thought, "This is Hoenn music." I personally liked Gen. IV's music better than Gen. III, but if Gen. V has anything that hits it out of the park quite like the Diving music, Sootopolis' music, or the Magma/Aqua battle themes, I'll be satisfied.

The Mystery Dungeon music composer needs to come in and collaborate, though, as does the Colosseum/XD person. The Primal Dialga and Miror B. themes are some of the best in Pokemon.

Hopefully the music is something neat enough that I can just turn the game on and leave it on the couch while I read a good book, which it usually is. XD I didn't quite like Gen IV's music, though it was still okay~

I'mma gonna agree with Katiechu. Stick with our usual music composer, and all should go well. :3 And I'm totally looking forward to seeing what the legendaries music are, as well as other boss musics (Team bosses, gym leaders, E4, champion, etc.)
 
Although the music isn't everything, I still find it an important part of the game. For example, I adore Hoenn, but there were only a few tracks that I enjoyed (i.e. Lilycove). Johto still has my favorite music and I was overjoyed to see that HGSS did every single track justice and then some in more than a few instances. I'm hoping Black and White's music won't be bland--in particular the bike and surf music. Aside from GSC and later HGSS, those themes have always been okay at best (Hoenn) and atrocious at worst (Kanto). With Gen IV, they've done an excellent job with the legendaries, E4, and champion theme so I'm really excited about Black and White's music.

I didn't even think about the Elite 4 and Champion music. Cynthia's theme was pretty damn epic (the type of tune, as Shiny put it, that I'd sit back and listen to before actually battling her), so here's hoping we get something new that's at least on-par with it. ;D

I don't have sound on my computers, but I wish I did. However, for other music for the game, I would love to hear some saxophone for the new Game Corner. It would remind me of the stereotypical casinoes of the '20's.
 
My favorite games for music were GSC, of course, but some of Hoenn's music has really stuck with me. The ending theme for RSE was ridiculously beautiful. I wouldn't object if BW's music was more like RSE.
 
BZZT. Attention, lifeform. Your inferior post offers no insight or conversational value to this discussion. Therefore, it is defined as SPAM. You sahll receive a warning, and should you not heed it, shall be terminated from this forum. BZZT.

Also, I can only hope the 'boss' Pokemon in B/W will have awesome soundtracks that can rival Ho-oh and Lugia's on HGSS. Galactic and Rocket also had nice themes, and I'm hoping Plasma continues in that tradition.
