The sad cello piece is beautiful but it just doesn’t seem to fit a bustling seaport like Lion’s Arch, especially not when it’s the ONLY song that plays in Lion’s Arch currently. It fit well with the vistas and it might fit for late night Lion’s Arch when the hustle and bustle would theoretically die down, but there are plenty of tracks on the soundtrack that sound more lively and fitting for Lion’s Arch.. heck, some of them are played in Divinity’s Reach.

The music is almost always wrong for the zone IMO. I think this has to do with the playlist division is done for the in-game music. I agree that there needs to be livelier music in LA. Whether such tracks exist in the GW2 soundtrack, I do not know. Here are tracks that I use when I am in LA:

I use some others as well, but those are the livelier ones. I’m always on the lookout for more pirate/swashbuckling music.

I don’t want music from other games to replace the soundtrack. Prior to the 1/3/13 update Lion’s Arch did have more lively music. Between Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2’s OST’s there’s plenty of fitting music for LA. Heck, this is PERFECT for Lion’s Arch, and it’s from GW1, in fact it used to play in GW1 Lion’s Arch from time to time:

This also fits:

This was the GW1 Lion’s Arch Theme I believe:

What about this from the GW2 soundtrack? It would fit the tone of Lion’s Arch quite nicely, where is this even used in game, I’ve never heard it before?

This is the music that played in daytime Lion’s Arch up until 1/3/13, which I feel is a great piece but feels a bit too sleepy for a bustling port town, it’d be more of a sleepy slow going seaside town than a major commercial and traveling hub.

but it was still more fitting than what we have currently, which is the music that used to play when you did vistas in Lion’s Arch, now it just plays 24/7. It’s a nice piece, it just feels out of place and is emphasized by it being 24/7.

The GW1 Kryta theme would have been perfect. Why doesn’t it play in the Kryta region?

“Sands of Kryta” would have been fitting too.

Sands of Kryta doesn’t sound like a bustling port town, see that’s the thing, some people just like the new music as “ooh, that sounds nice” and don’t really care that it doesn’t fit the location/scenario.

Hello! I know this isn’t really related, but what IS the name of the sad cello piece/ new LA music? I really really like it, though I do agree LA is probably not the best place to play it.

I think this is the track you’re looking for:

The sad cello piece should play after your mentor sacrifices themselves in the story.

I hear Temple of Tolerance when just idling in Queensdale and Lions Arch occasionally. It also has to do with settings and your computers power. If your latency is too high or you lag too much or too much going on in game causing processor problems (like mine does) You may not hear music at all or never on cue. I heard Sands of Kryta recently in Lions Arch. Its very rare like Over the Shiverpeaks was in gw 1 Southern Shiverpeaks areas. Now that Over the Shiverpeaks theme is very common in Hoelbrak and early level areas of the region.
