Emperor Harkonnen Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 What kind of music do you guys think they listen to in the time of Dune? The books probably don't say much about it, do they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 There are mentions of it... the baliset being the obvious example. I think the music is mainly cultural - caladan music is different to Giedi prime music, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Harkonnen Posted April 9, 2002 Author Share Posted April 9, 2002 I would have guessed that on Caladan they play classical or opera. And at Giedi Prime it would be Heavy Metal ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usul Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 What about that simota (sp.) music, the one used in conjunction with drugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefud Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Yes that was my firs thought too. I think simota music is used intergalactically. It doesn't matter which planet are you on you can get the "ingredients" if you want to... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mordecai Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 Remember that most houses have cultural origins (e.g. Atreides is Greek) - their music would reflect this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefud Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 But remember only House Atreides was Greek the folk of Caladan is not!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 Semuta would only be for the addicts, though...There might be some greek influence in the Caladanians, since their people must have been led there by someone like the Atreides, presumably from Greece.

TMA_1 Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 I would have to disagree with cultural influence in music at the future age. it talks about traveling bards going from one planet to another playing music. From what I see it is majorily folk-like music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
