Andalite music
« on: August 02, 2009, 12:06:37 PM »
It's brought up a couple times throughout the series that the Andalites find human music in poor taste. I'm assuming this stretches from mainstream pop trash to good stuff like classical.

So, what do you think Andalite music sounds like?

They do, however, have ears, and songs don't have to have vocals.

Why? Start a discussion, man.

Though I would agree that hoof-based percussion would be my guess. Maybe a tap-dancing type of music?

They could blow through their nostrils and have some kind of machine that amplifies the wind force.

Maybe their music conveys emotion or paints a mental picture like that flute thingy in Futurama. Stupid comparison I know, but for a species that communicates telepathically maybe the reason Ax doesnt get anything out of human music is because to him it's just noises without any sort of picture being painted . . . but then that does seem like the kind of thing he'd just tell the Animorphs, but then again maybe to him its so natural that he doesnt think he should have to, or thinks it would offend them too terribly.

Eating through hooves was "natural" for him, but he still expressed how weird that is to them.

But that does make sense, the telepathy thing. That's actually a pretty damn good idea.

Actually, Andalites sing in book 41 in the future. However dispite the fact that they sing with humans in this book I think that the andalites have some kind of telepathic music variety. Or "Psychophony" (I made up the word from greek roots)

not having a spoken language they could be tone deaf as a species and therefore unable to enjoy music.
