[QUOTE="Renfield, post: 1172247, member: 13493"] Comment pretty much. Yes you mentioned three soundtracks I've forgotten seeing as they're in another part of the state and I haven't seen them in a year >.< Dracula, Gladiator, and Braveheart all have great music. I'll have to look into the rest. As for making them MP3's. I am not so fortunate as to being able to game within earshot of my computer. I am fortunate enough however to have a portable diskman that can play MP3 cd's and have a D&D soundtrack file already set up with music categorized into various files like combat music, dark and evil type music, heroic music, peaceful and serene music, town music etc. Even have an "Other" Folder for various D&D MP3's like the two Deadale Wives's MP3's and a song called Raistlyn and the Rose (while I have a passionate dislike towards Dragonlance I do enjoy the song nevertheless). If you don't mind music that's somewhat epic and heroic sounding and also has a modern pseudo 80's metal feel to it the group Rhapsody has some great albums all based on an epic fantasy story spanning the four or five albums. Main fault is that it doesn't really fit with a D&D campaign though a few intrumentals are great for combat scenes. Not to mention Lucca Turelli the lead singer is itallian, and you can hear a lot of his accent in the music when he sings. >.< Still, fun to listen to while writing up adventures or posting on the Story Hour. Another option are a few select tracks from the Escaflowne soundtrack. They could work for battle music, temple music, or celebration/holy city type music. Or whatever you think they fall into. Just have to deal with the O'Fortunaesque lyrics being nothing but Es-ca flow-ne, Es-ca flow-ne, etc etc :P [/QUOTE]
