This file replaces 17 of the 'bleh' songs played on the Classical Radio Station with Classical songs I enjoy more.

I found the Classical Radio Station to have some decent choices in music, but preferred some changes for various reasons.

I made this with only me in mind -- but uploaded here for anyone that seeks up some change or variety in the music choices.


Is this of any use to you?

If by chance you are familiar with this stuff, you can read the song list below, but if that list is a bunch of jibber jabber... this is the logic I used in changing the songs:

1) I'm not really into a dude diddling with himself on a piano or whatever instrument of his choice. I prefer more 'active' pieces with more going on. Probably means I'm a moron. I mostly took out the pieces I couldn't enjoy some strong central melody and replaced with ones that I do hear a strong central melody.

2) Some pieces were replaced due to how they annoying they sound to me after being over used in pop culture/cartoons/media to convey specific moods/atmospheres/situations. Grieg's Morning Wood is a prime example -- I don't want that 'everything is peace and tranquility' feeling in my fallout (even though the irony is not lost on me -- but it does bring to mind bugs bunny more than anything else).

3) Some pieces, while not something I fully disliked for the above 2 reasons still got the cut because I felt something out there was better. The 'better' choices, in general, I find to be fun pieces that usually don't fit into the above 2 problems -- though there is some exception, but that is personal bias for you.

Installation

If you have not already changed your Fallout4.ini for modding purposes:
Go to ...\Documents\My Games\Fallout4\ and open Fallout4.ini with a text editor.
Find the line:

Disclaimers

1) I'm not a composer, performer, symphony, or even a dude that knows anything about classical music. I have no claim in ownership to these songs or the files contained. But this isn't Kanye's collection of crap, it is classical music -- For the most part, this stuff falls within Public Domain and anyone that legitimately can claim true ownership to these things is long dead. If a specific orchestra wants to cry spilt milk over exposure of these pieces to the general public, they're likely in the wrong career field. If it makes you feel better, go buy yourself some culture for a little over $2 per 100 songs on Amazon.

2) I did not break your computer, your Fallout 4, or your life. You did. Good job.

3) It is very easy to do what I did here if you want to change it up. It is probably easy to add songs if you don't want to replace -- but you've got to figure that out. I'm not taking requests for changing, updating this thing, or even providing pseudo-intellectual jibber jabber about how Chopin is always diddling himself -- so don't bother.
