So, not really a gameplay question, but, we all know the default music sucks.  Mandolins are nice, but after the first five minutes, well...  So, I usually turn on the radio and let it run, usually some sort of alternative/pop stuff.  It's a college radio station so they play whatever they please.

You?

My music libary. Electronic for general gameplay, Metal for combat/seiges.

I listen to Techno while playing DF ( Hadstyle mainly).
Its so unfitting to the game setting and sometimes you watch your blacksmith melting something and you music start to get harder and you just think: Fuck you man this music is killing the Atmosphere.
But mostly I just dont care if it fits or not.

Much the same for me, we have a ton of independent radio stations in the SF bay area. Sometimes it's freakishly weird, but I love it. Anyone ever listen to Negativland? They have an awesome radio show called Over the Edge that broadcasts out of Berkley. It's all user generated, they call it collaborative radio or something. It's kind of like being in a crazy person's head for a second.

I stream movies and TV shows in parallel with DF.  Ones that don't need the visual action to convey the story work especially well.

You sound like you'd have enjoyed old style radio broadcasts, in the vein of Hitchhiker's Guide and War of the Worlds.

Since I usually run Soundsense with DF, I've expanded its music library a bit. Mostly game soundtracks which fit the mood, The Witcher, Dragon Age (dwarven tracks mmm...) etc. If all else fails, I'll just plug in a metal playlist of mine or something.

It varies. I like to loop some of the Moria bits from the Lord of the Rings soundtrack when I'm building though, they're kind of appropriate

For game soundtracks you really can't beat Troika's little gem Arcanum.

Usually watching TV, but sometimes podcasts. I've been on a Bruce Willis kick lately so the Die Hard movies right now.

Actually, the other day I was playing .19 and listening to DF Talk #11.
