the whole “all music is wordless techno in space” thing in m.e. is so….. lame. it’s lame. like i know it was just for background music but cmon. where’s my asari bubblegum pop that’s sometimes vague about its subject and sometimes as explicitly about a certain species as possible. hanar evangelical music that’s still kinda nice to listen to when you’re having a bad day and need something to soothe your soul. turian ballads on war, famous figures, the glory of the empire, and the singer’s squadmate that they’ve been pining over for ages. batarian punk rock on underground radio channels that are always moving frequencies cause they have to keep switching it up or the hegemony will literally murderize them but stopping means maybe some other low-caste kid won’t hear the message they need to. krogan death metal, bioware, you’ve deprived me of krogan death metal.

music is so widely varied on earth sometimes you need like 5 or 6 adjectives to describe a subgenre completely why should it be any different in a future with aliens
