Men at Arms Playlist
An energetic, city-sized soundtrack for Discworld’s new Watch: ragtime, comic orchestral flourishes, and noirish jazz evoke Ankh-Morpork’s crowded streets, oddball recruits, and investigations. The songs then turn toward the Watch’s uneasy encounters with power, law, and belonging, with a few character-minded nods to Vimes and Angua.
