[Eberron] Eberron Music

[WayneLigon]

OK, in a fit of deep, deep geekiness, I decided to make an Eberron music track for possible use in the campaign. It has a huge range as I see things, so I'm already taking some classical music and turning it to my own ends - usually late rennaiance stuff is what you'll hear in the Aundarian courts, while Karns prefer the German composers.

But I need other stuff too. Stuff you might not normally think of. So far, I've repurposed the Jeeves and Wooster theme to 'Sharn Upper Class Club music' and the theme to 'Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends' as 'Civilized Halfling Tavern Music'. The music clips from Civ 4 are going to be invaluable for this purpose. The main opening theme is already 'Shadow Marches Half-Orc Ceremonial music' and Ave Satani (From "The Omen") is 'Dragon Below Cultist Theme'.

Any other suggestions?

A pretty standard suggestion is the CD that was packaged with Sharn: City of Towers. While it's been a while since I listened to it (compared with having it in the background), so songs stood out as very appropriate.

I'm using the soundtracks to Firefly, Battlestar Galactica, and Carnivale for my upcoming Savage Tide campaign set in Eberron.

I finally got around to creating the discs, though the Sharn disc needs more stuff. I took a lot of suggestions from the recent Dragon article on music, along with some other heroic or adventureous themes. During the recent 'Great Train Robbery' they faced going towards Sharn (based very loosely on the adventure 'Riding the Rail' in Dungeon), we put The Black Pearl on repeat for all the top-of-a-moving-train fights that were going on.
