User blog comment:Demetri Anacona/What I think makes a good OC theme/@comment-8182065-20140112061219

I'm not an expert in music but bare with me.

I think a point should be made about a popular song by a band vs an OST from a game. Said popular song might've been added to be a theme, just because the creator likes that song so much, and might not fit with their OC. The music probably fits, but then there are the lyrics that might give off a wrong idea as well; the same thing for the vice versa can be said as well. OSTs make finding themes easier, well just my opinion, because you have to deal with less thinking; the only thing to worry about is whether the melody fits the character itself.

Also for battle music it should be based on the traits, weapon, and battle style of the OC.
