Briefing Music - Which one?
Alright, everybody, it's time for Nuclear to ask for help again! This time it's about music. Currently, I've got two more ideas for briefing music set out, but I need suggestions as to which one to actually use.

Samples are here. Now, I won't insult your intelligence and say that you probably haven't heard these somewhere before, so I'll give you the sources for both. The first, a much more uplifting and victorious tune, is entitled "International Code" on the Independence Day soundtrack by David Arnold, and the second, a much darker and intense piece called "Fire Storm", comes from the same soundtrack.

However, I cannot decide which to use. GTI Rebellion's already pushing the limit on music here, so we can't really afford to have more than one of these released. So, which one?
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

The first one is awful, truly awful, not jsut as briefing music but in general as well.  The second one seems more suited to in-game music, but would be OK as briefing music.  If you're looking for something else along the lines of the second one I can recommend Chateau by Rob Dougan.

Briefing Music - Which one?
Neither i'd say, the first one is more of a "sucess" debreif, the second seems more like ingame music.
actualy, mabye not.

Curses...now I want to see Independence Day again. They last showed it on NBC or something and I missed the last half.

Uhm, anyway, yeah, I'd vote neither too. Too recognizable. But then, David Arnold is one of the few composers that I recognize (Stargate, Independence Day, Wing Commander)

The First one is more suitable for a very sucessful debrefieng.
The second one is good for the begginning of an in-game battle.

Briefing Music - Which one?
After seeing Independence day at least twenty times before, I can say that the tracks in the movie were a lot better and make these ones sound weird and bad. Probably if I hadn't known these tracks previously (knowing a better version which was played in the movie), I would say these tracks are all right. The main problem is that most of the people know a better version of those tracks.
