Does the background music to this clip from Strike Witches sound familiar? Steven thinks that it’s 19th-century, but I don’t recognize it. My guess is that the tune was composed specifically for the show.
(Yeah, I hadn’t intended to watch any more of Strike Witches, but Steven’s note piqued my curiosity and I had enough left in my BOST account to download one last episode. Unless I hear that there is a quantum leap in quality in the second half of the show, this is as much of Strike Witches as I’m going to waste time on.)
Probably show-specific. The way it ends is not typical of that era, and the arrangement is thin for a solo piano work.
Yeah, some of the chords definitely sound too modern to be 19th century. Probably written for the show.
I have taken multiple courses in music theory and history and can definitely say it was composed within 20 years, more likely 10 years, and 99% certain it was composed for this show, that scene.
its just generic background music.
How did you rip the audio from that file, Don? What tool did you use?
I use Audio Hijack. It’s Mac-only, but there’s undoubtedly a Windows equivalent.
