I wasn't really sure where to put this post since it technically deals with music, but could also potential be a general discussion topic as well- so if a mod feels the need to move this post, go for it.
Maybe I'm the only one, or loosing my mind, but has anybody else noticed or felt like a majority of the music in this zone is very... emotionally driven? Does it seem odd to anybody else? To me most of the music in S&D it's not the kind of stuff I'd expect to hear in a scarezone, even one like this which is mostly action based and less "horror." Those more "emotional" sections (or even some entire songs) could have been cut out but the mixers left them in and I'm curious as to why that is (if there is any reason.) Typically in theatre or film you have those moments that are intended to trigger or resonate with audiences on different level and not just "get the heart beat racing." Chapter Doof, Walhalla Awaits, Going Commando, Dream is Collapsing, Final Frontier and several others have portions in their songs have those more "subdued/emotional" moments and when I'm watching the videos of the zone and they come on it really seems to clash for me and take me out of the feeling they're seemingly trying to establish- I.E a scary postapocalyptic world.
Now I haven't actually physically been in this zone (as I probably won't be able to make the event this year) so maybe it's just because I'm watching it via videos. But it's just odd. These songs seems like deliberate choices, and we know that they've changed at least a portion of the park-wide music this past week and nothing (musically) seems to have changed for S&D so that means they've kept the music the same. If they've chosen specifically this music it makes me wonder why; why the more emotional musical motifs in this zone?
