I AM A NERD

[lawofar18]

NBC IS TOTALLY USING MUSIC FROM DYNASTY WARRIORS FOR BACKGROUND MUSIC IN THEIR OLYMPICS BROADCAST, I AM A LITTLE WTF AT THE FAKE!CHINESE MUSIC, QUITE A BIT AMUSED THAT THEY STOLE IT FROM SUCH A RANDOM SOURCE, AND A LOT WORRIED THAT I EVEN RECOGNIZED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Is that where its from? Awesome! I was kind of diggin' it. But yeah, chinoiserie music when you could (and should!) have gotten the real thing = lulz.

Just as a side note: Iron Chef on Food Network once used music from a very popular anime (Vision of Escaflowne) for its background music. When I recognized the music, I was like wtf!awesome!

"Hey, this is a video game with Chinese characters! The music will totally sound authentic!"

Haha, Iron Chef using Escaflowne is pretty awesome. And glad I'm not the only one with nerd musical tastes!
