Hmm. I think I'll have to check that out, Yasraena. You wouldn't happen to have a link for the terminally lazy, would you?

Silly me. I thought that this was something like the soundtrack to the movie of the same name. I didn't know they made mood music just for this sort of thing.

I think I may have to buy this when it comes out. Assuming I like the samples here, and I think I will.

I played these two samples for a friend of mine, without letting him know what they were supposed to be about. Then I asked him what he thought of while listening to it. He gave exactly the right answers -- an epic battle and a mysterious/evil dungeon.

Whomever wrote these pieces is a musical genius.

When I involved background music and SFX into my gaming sessions, I used the soundtrack which comes with Neverwinter Nights for the PC. It has 26 music tracks and 89 sound effect tracks. They're all suited for the game, as they are made for that type of game and are loop tracks (they can be set to repeat without a pause in between!) If anyone doesn't have access to the game I can Email them the soundtrack discs. Email me at alborez2003@yahoo.co.uk for a copy

Most stuff by "Mediaeval Baebes" is cool. As well as being stunningly beautiful (ah-hum!) their harmonies are fantastic.
If yoy want to check out a track to see how they are, look for "Undrentide" from the album of the same name.

Yes, I actually heard them live once. They were quite good. They were at the local Renaissance Festival last year.

For my two cents worth:

I have used music while gaming, one of my favorites is:

Za Frumi - This tells the story of a band of Orcs via music.
The language used in telling the tale is Tolkein's "Black Speach"

The 'real-world' group is a bunch of LARPers from Scandinavia who play the characters on their CDs

I did. That is, I paid for it, half a month ago. I couldn't find it in my area, so I ordered it from Amazon. It says it won't ship until mid-November.

See anything wrong with this picture?

I normally play Queen or other rock music whilst playing, I'm not sure whether sound effects [such as battle sounds]would divert my players' attention or not.

On the topic of music is it posible to download the Candlekeep soundtrack on this site?

Actually Vallandar,if you have a browser like IE or Netscape, you already have. Anything that's loaded is put in your temporary internet cache folder. Just do a file search for yewtree.mid and you should find it on your system. If not, I could always email it to you.

I have used the soundtrack to Lord of the Rings on three occasions, the Flight to the Ford section of the CD is the perfect companion to a battle or race.

No problem Vallandar.
Well, actually there is one. Your profile doesn't have any contact info for you. So email me here, let me know where to send it, and it shall be yours!

I'm going to, hopefully, resurrect this topic. Sorry, Sage, I thought these older topics were sealed, I didn't look closely enough.
Anyway, I make my gaming group listen to Baldurs Gate 1/2 music for ambience, lively Final Fantasy/ Black Mages music for combat, the current villains in my campaign have Davy Jones (Pirates of the Carribean II Soundtrack), and the Advent Children version of One Winged Angel (I think you can get it from Blue Laguna), and on one memorable venture into the city of the dead, we listened to Her Ghost In The Fog, and Nymphetamine, by the, um, interesting Cradle of Filth. I'm not sure what the players were more scared by, the graveyard or the music.

I've been thinking of using CoF in games myself, but I'm not sure how my players will react. Not that I care... you might wanna try out the soundtracks to Bram Stoker's Dracula and Thirteen Ghosts as well... bad-ass music!
