My apologies, I accidently posted the same poll twice in different subforums. Please remove this one (if possible).
Yes, I would love to have Jeff van Dyck as composer again!
I think CA should stick with the composer(s) of the E:TW music.
I think CA should stick with the composer(s) of the N:TW music.
I think CA needs a new composer (please specify).

Van Dyck should have NEVER been let go, or left depending on the circumstances. His music for Rome and Medieval II were simply EPIC!

Van Dyck's as good as it gets in PC gaming soundtracks, as far as I'm concerned. Though Freelancer had some pretty slick tracks in the bars and parts shops.

The music for Empire and Napoleon sucks majorly hairy sweaty ball sacks. Van Dyck is the bomb. There's no one like him. He's like heavy classical on a synthesizer. Can't get enough of those insane drums of all shapes and sizes. He has a gift for setting mood, and for interpreting ancient music in a modern light. And his wife Angela has the voice of an angel. I want to shAG HER!
"Huh?"
Sure it would. Can you imagine how angry Jeff would be if he found me in bed with his wife? It'd magnify the intensity of his Total War music tenfold. His battle tunes, for example, would be his artistic interpretation of ripping my spine out with his bare hands. I'd love to hear it!
"Huh?"

Unless there's something wrong with my computer, that was a mega necropost there Slarty (Not meaning to be offending about it in any way).
The internet is like another world: You shape one image in the real world, and another online. But although online it is easier to be sincere, it is just as simple to be more deceptive.
No offence taken. van Dyck was brought back for Shogun2 wasn't he? If that's the case, it must have an awesome soundtrack. Could you update me on this perchance?
"Huh?"
well S2 music mp3 files are tagged as their artist being Jeff van Dyck, so I suppose he's back.

Then the soundtrack must be sublime. I suppose I'd better start saving for STW2!
"Huh?"

He is known for the BAFTA he received for his work on Shogun TW. I haven't payed much attention to Shogun2 lately due to unfortunate circumstances, but my ears tell me much of what you are listening to in game is either the same music or an updated version. So he's definitely back if not in full.Would you like Jeff van Dyck (known for his RTW and M2TW music) to compose the music for the Total War games again?
