Kevin Kiner has really done a good job doing the soundtrack for the Star Wars: Rebels show, and this here is a prime example.
This track retains all the dashing bravado of the Original Trilogy's music, but is bouncy and playful at the same time... though the beginning and end serve to show that ultimately, things are serious. This is Star Wars, after all.
This music plays while Zeb takes out stormtroopers on Lothal:
The scene this music comes from made me tear up. Seriously. ARC Trooper Fives was was such a good character, and his death was so sad. Framed by the chancellor himself, killed by one of his own brothers, everyone thought he had gone insane... when in reality, he was the only one with the truth.
Anyway, this piece is full of emotion. Kevin Kiner really has done an amazing job with the Clone Wars soundtrack.
No Monday Music Challenge today, I'm afraid. Due to a bunch of stuff going on in my life right now, I won't be posting much. In fact, I won't be on the internet much at all. I'll still try to get at least two posts done per week, though. :)
Today we have the theme Kevin Kiner composed for the character Savage Opress: probably one of the biggest, strongest, and toughest villains from the Clone Wars show. The theme really matches Opress' character, especially his hard and fast fighting style.
It was especially epic to hear while Opress and Maul were dueling Obi-Wan Kenobi and Adi Gallia on Florrum:
"We're pirates... we don't even know what that means!"
