I still consider this to be the unofficial DF anthem.

...Thats the best thing I've heard all week.  :D

On topic: I mostly listen to blues while I play, but I think the original music really captures that desolate feeling of struggling to get by out in the wilderness.
On that note, I'd say instrumental guitar music would be the most fitting, perhaps some of the more downbeat "cowboy and western" style stuff.

I think the music from the first Stronghold game fits DF quite well.  The siege music fits, and the ambient music fits most forts well (until the inevitable end, or if you're doing science experiments or something).

Next time a siege rolls around, I'm breaking out the Stronghold siege music.
Obliged. Stronghold was a good game, it'll be missed ;_;

I use soundsense, it has new background music, most of it is fairly good.Theres one song imparticular, though, Simon Swerwer-The Tankard Basher. I'm not sure why, but it just really feels like Dwarf Fortress, or at least sitting in a pub and drinking a shit load of ale... which is usually what my dwarves end up doing.

You see, here's how I think this works:
Overseer: Welcome to the military! You need to wear socks! Dorf: Oh, I should get military socks. My socks are civilian socks. Dorf discards socks Dorf: You know, I need a whole lot of gear now. I should get socks... last. Oh, but these steel boots with the white goo on them are nice!

I find In the Hall of the Mountain King particularly fitting for Dorf Fort.
