Anthem of your Fortress
« on: June 14, 2017, 06:32:07 pm »
Just as the title says. What music do you think would make a good anthem for your fortress?

Mine is a haunted wood with undead harpies, reanimation, incapacitating weather and consequently a high death rate. Thus: "Death don't have no mercy in this land" by Gary Davis, in both its sombreness and its content, is mine.

Anthem to my life, and therefore all forts thereof.

“Sogno di Volare” from Civ 6.

Buy some gnomeblight and have it added to the booze stockpile. Maybe they'll pick the wrong barrel and dissolve.

Elves do it in trees. Humans do it in wooden structures. Dwarves? Dwarves do it underground. With magma.

Hmm. Dwarven fortresses should be heard. The masters of magma, alcohol and fun need something that ends with a bang.
Maybe the Florentiner Marsch can do it justice?
It starts enthusiastic and you strike the earth, then it grows loud, like a battle against goblins, then busy like the subsequent melting of their goblinite. Then it becomes quiet as your activity shifts underground and has a loud finale as you inevitably breach the HFS.

Sometimes I'm convinced my Forts' is Yakety Sax.  Many would probably know it better as the Benny Hill Show theme.
