So I've been playing Dwarf fortress for a while and chatting with people who do. We are all avid users of Spotify and so we send music links back and forth. Usually fitting the theme of dwarf fortress. So I finally decided to save it all in a place, what you can see here (assuming you have spotify) is just the beginning. You are welcome to add whatever you want, but expect it to be heavily moderated; the reason for this is that we tried to create a forum wide playlist before and it was all over the place. This might seem arbitrary, and that's because it is. The only written down rule however is a maximum of 2 songs per artist.




If you don't have spotify but find it interesting I could certainly hook up a few with an account.

Edit: seem to have double posted

Er. "The service is currently only available in Sweden, Norway, Finland, the United Kingdom, France and Spain."

That might be somewhat of a show-stopper?

If you could make a list of the song names elsewhere (I don't have spotify), that would be great. I could find them on my own.

EDIT: Accidental double post, sorry. (oh wow, same as Urist )

"Sweden, Norway, Finland..."
It must be heaven (or hell, if you prefer it that way) for extreme metal .

Dwarfy music is pretty much pure rock (pun not originally intended). You can supplement this with metal if you'd like (OK, that one was deliberate).

A few things that are either on mine now or are going to be added within about a week:

Cold Chisel:
Shipping Steel
Cheap Wine
Bow River
Khe Sanh
You Got Nothing I Want
