Cue of the Week: “Warriors of Tenochtitlan”
The title above is a bit of a cheat, since in Empires Apart this music represents all meso-American cultures rather than strictly the Aztecs. (Tenochtitlan was the famed Aztec capitol, constructed on Lake Texcoco.)
This battle cue uses percussion and winds to evoke a sense of location, and orchestral strings for continuity with the game’s overall narrative.
