This should definitely be reggae. :upside_down_face:

As for gnomes: I think ‘synth pop’ kind of suits them. :blush:

Also; In this thread: people who don’t understand what ‘music genre’ means. Not a song. A genre. :man_facepalming: :man_shrugging:

Pandaren: I think of chinese folk music or relaxing music.

In my opinion, like irl, everybody have their own musical taste, then maybe there’s gnomes that like (urgh) rap/hiphop/techno trash, and other ones that like prog rock. Not always one size fits all.

Different genres represent different cultures because different instruments were invented in those areas, plus there are WoW races based on various subcultures, like the metal culture.

So yeah, they probably have different tastes. You wouldn’t exactly call pop music a Chinese invention but pop music is definitely a thing there, obviously.

Fun fact: Jackie Chan, aka Cheng Long, is a huge pop musician in China. For example he sings “I’ll make a man out of you” in Mulan.

Real Tauren know that country music is the only appropriate thing to listen to when you’re out riding your kodo on a hot Barrens evening!

Hey folks!

So it’s pretty interesting see the music people associate with races! Are there any soundtracks you mentally play for specific characters, yours or in-game ones? We’re curious now!

Yours,

Humans: Classical music

this is what i hear sort of in game already when i am leveling a alt in pandaria but sometimes I also play it on youtube to relax.

There was this forsaken warlock called Drakedog I used to watch pvp videos of years ago and he always played metal like Sonic Syndicate. I always think of that band when I see forsaken warlocks :smiley:

You just brought back some good nostalgia of yogcast aha.
But here these guys made a metal version in tribute for yogcast. Check it out :stuck_out_tongue:

I actually play this a lot on my dwarf.
