Thanks for listening guys!

Nice. Epic. You need to get Toady to take a look at this; maybe he'd be willing to let others work on music for DF.

I contacted him a few months back and he told me that he wanted to do it all himself.

Also, if anyone has any requests for other themes, I'll try and get some done

He might be open to allowing a trigger system for other tracks on events though. I would assume he'll have to implement something like that when he does it anyway and it sounds like a minimal bit of work if your not writing the music now as well :)

whenever the black 'a vile force of darkness' screen appears, I pause whatever music im listening to and put on a good ensiferum track until the siege ends.

You know how it's done 8)

EDIT: To avoid getting off-topic, the music's very nice :P

Extremely nice, but i feel it just lacks that extra quirkness, dunno, its too much a "piece of music" maybe.
Hmmm, i'm very eager to hear what Toady comes up with.

Epic, although perhaps more suited to orcs than useless goblins.

Reminds me of Final Fantasy.
That's a good thing.
Final Fantasy soundtracks are epic.

not bad at all, although i thought that the rhythm could use some work at times and the organ could be more epic, for lack of a better word.

Huh, I'm the first to say that I wouldn't like the song to be in the game, don't get me wrong it's good just not DF good.

It doesn't exactly fit the "this is the fantasy medieval theme" and personally I don't feel that snare drums were exactly within the time frame that DF is trying to set.

Click the first link, it should start playing automatically. If not, its on the right side of the page, just hit the "play" button.

Ambushes should play the Metal Gear Solid "!" noise.
