[QUOTE="Michikawa, post: 5198902, member: 34789"] Greetings! I'm not sure if you are customed to listening to music while gaming, but our group has found it to be a wonderful way to set the atmosphere and define the general feel of the story. Film soundtracks are widely used, but sometimes "normal music" as well. I'd be interested in hearing also, do you use background music in your gaming sessions, or do you prefer to play "in silence"? I am a hobbyist composer myself and have produced orchestral fantasy themed music for many years now, usually my vision or goal is to produce such tunes that would fit roleplaying game sessions and produce strong visual images and associations. In 2007 I posted a thread on this forum where I offered my tunes for other gaming groups and it got so good response I thought that after a long silence I could refresh the memory and mention the same thing to "the next generation" as well. Here are a few sample tunes that gives concept of the quality and style I tend to aim for, but I have also produced really calm and minimalistic tunes as well. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEMlGi8X--s[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=202xhWUsKXI[/ame] Here's the latest compilation "The Fall of Ragnaros": [url]http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/95667[/url] Feel free to check out the project homepages on french Creative Commons music site jamendo.
