Well personally I used to jump in the jeeps in Battlefield 'Nam and turn on the radio and just listen to the '60's soundtrack It is hard to criticize a sound track that included Creedence, The Troggs, Canned Heat Deep Purple and The Kinks

I also found the soundtracks that came with the various "Need for Speed Underground" titles pretty good listening.

A good soundtrack can help a game immensely. In terms of WWII a mixture of Vera Lynn, Glenn Miller, Marlene Dietrich and similar songs in other languages ("Lili Marleen" in German was a huge hit amongst Afrika Corp troops for example) may not be played every time you fly but would add a lot to the atmosphere of the game.

I agree that I almost always turn the music off, but one game I remember the music was epic - UFO ( the very first one ). The music was just so eerie, it's the only game I know where the music actually gave you the willies !

Back in those early days of Warbirds I always flew that 109 F4. In the Full Real mode if you knew how to fly it well you could fight with almost anything. You could always find a way some how to get your enemy. After I left I hear the flight models went kind of kapput though.

Default Music

Music will be, but you may always to replace it by own or to switch off.

Good music creating some mood. Depending of human character and age the music is different for the creation of mood.

I personally always prefer good hard rock if its background... just for the mood. However with the great attention I'm listening on my hi end euipment only art and progressive rock.

I also accept old symphonic orchestra music in WWII films and also WWII theme games... But then if it is possible - will listen just couple of times and will replace by my favorite, instrumental.

I know several songs that were inspired by Il-2 (Russian and English languages).... Good to use in trainings

Today will be small update. No time. And version in rebuilding. Making on previous version.
