Cantina Sounds: Star Wars source music
@CantinaSounds
Exploring diegetic music — music the characters hear and make — from a galaxy far far away, in movies, TV shows, video games, and theme parks. I'm @jere7my.
Welcome to the cantina! I've been putting together a continuously evolving spreadsheet of every diegetic music cue and track in Star Wars, from Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes in Chalmun's Cantina to DJ R-3X at Oga's on Batuu — and beyond. Check it out! bit.ly/StarWarsSource
Ceiling soup and another deeply-buried piece of bar music from "The Mandalorian" are featured in day 85 of #TheDiegeticShuffle. Max Sandler's "Fishing Village Pub" from Chapter 10 is a folky mixture of plaintive whistle and chunky stringed instrument.
Joseph Williams returns for day 84 of #TheDiegeticShuffle, with, as he puts it, "a little 50s-type café during ‘Attack of the Clones’": cue 2M4, untitled and unreleased but known as "Dex's Diner". Really helps the Jawa juice go down smooth.
Incidentally, Pablo can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the hallikset is a Dune reference, a portmanteau of Gurney Halleck and the instrument he played, the baliset. One also shows up in Jedi: Fallen Order, and handmaiden Sabé played one.
"Jabba Flow" was performed in Maz's Castle by Shag Kava: Taybin Ralorsa on vocals, Infrablue Zedbeddy Coggins on hypolliope horn cluster, Ubert "Sticks" Quaril on xyloxan, and (a top Star Wars name, courtesy of Pablo Hidalgo) Sudswater Dillifay Glon on hallikset.
80 days into #TheDiegeticShuffle we get an invisible Jar Jar and a tribute to "Temple of Doom" with the Frangawl Cult chant from TCW S6E8 ("The Disappeared Pt. 1"). The language may or may not be Bardottan, and the composer may or may not be Kevin Kiner or one of his team.
Takeshi Furukawa wrote some Mandalorian chamber music to serve as a quiet backdrop to the sparks flying between Obi-Wan and Satine in season 2 of TCW: "Dinner Source" is day 78 of #TheDiegeticShuffle.
We get pretty obscure for day 76 of #TheDiegeticShuffle: @KramerComposer wrote "The Sequel of My Biography" to be the (presumably) galactic-public-domain background music R0-GR chose for his holo-bio, "From Trenches to Wrenches", in this LEGO All-Stars short. Love that cue title!
