[QUOTE="Zelda Themelin, post: 5690114, member: 167"] If you need basicly background music for your campaign, you already have quite good suggestions there. I like to use various movie scores and soundtracks from (usually) older video games soundtracks Final Fantasy have orchestral tracks and Xenogears have many good ones. Dead Can Dance has many interesting scores as well. Some anime instrumentals are very good as well. I use less mere intrumental stuff nowdays. I use actual set of songs for each campaign. Helps to remember things and set mood and actual story elements. Sometimes songs I choose are very literal. I have one DM currently who does this as well. What comes creepy tunes I've used here are some from one game, But idea here is add little supernatural feeling in these lyrics, making them more literal than symbolic. Smasthing Pumpkins - The End is The Beginning is... (Watchmen -trailer version) Sonata Arctica - Juliet (Orchestral) Mecano - Hijo De La Luna Sucker Punch soundtrack - Sweet Dreams Are Made of This Garbage - Afterglow Muse - Uprising Angtoria - Do YOu See Me Now Apocalyptica - How Far Before the Dawn - Silence Avantasia - THe Toy Master (the Scarecrow album) Chester Bennington - Morning After (Underwordl: Evulution OST) used for combat sometimes Chris Cornell - No Such Thing Dead Can Dance - Anywhere Out of the World Evenescence - Missing Garbage - #1 Crush (Romeo and Juliet saundtrack) Kamelot - Ghost Opera Poisonblack - From NOw-Here to Nowhere Simon & Garfunkel - The SOund of Silence Cris Cornell - You Know My Name Lost Boys Soundtrack - Cry Little Sister Carpark North - The Beasts Poets of the Fall - Where Do We Draw the Line Requiem for a Dream (instrumental, movie with same name soundtrack) Tool - 10 000 Days (Wings, Pt,2) Emily Bindiger Hack//SIGN ost - Aura Vanessa Carlton - Paint It Black (Animal Alpha - Master of Disguise) (Linkin Park - Crawling )[another game] (Garbage - the World is Not Enough) (Sonata Arctica - Fly With the Black Swan) (Disturbed - Down With the Sickness) (Disturbed - Into the Fire) (Savatage - Tonight He Grins Again/Believe(think in crazy non-good way)/When The Crowds Are Gone) Sugarcult - Hate Every Beautiful Day Basicly theme song for my dimensional travel character who originally came form very mundane world Poets of the Fall - Locking Up the Sun (Party's song while playing Shacled City in world of Scarn) we Used songs as literal in-game music as party was kinda bardic, only one actual bard, and had adventure group called Travellers of Unknown/Singers of Unknown, depending were they adventuring or performing) Some other songs used... Gamma Ray - All of the Damned Queen - The Show Must Go On Venus - Beautiful Days (you see this song as end tittle of movie Immortel) Dio - All the Fools Sailed Away Blackmore's Night - Where Are We Going From Here Savatage - Not What You See (same campaign, or actually one after it, that was called Year of the Worm (nothing to do with published one) [/QUOTE]
