My friend and I have been planning to do a piano/violin duet for a while now, but we hadn't picked the song. I think I know exactly what song(s) we'll do :D thank you for this o3o

This PDF is better than what I got by adding pictures to Word in a sense that it does not have any background.

Thank you!

Nicely done Sirroco.  You just went from epic to armoklike with this!  Love your stories and now your music too!

That wasn't so hard. It was shorter than I remembered.



Awesome again.

Wow, Toady's stuff sounds way better on the piano. He's like an inverse Albéniz.
Congratulations on making this happen, Sirocco.

Also, the .pdf throws the idea into my head of a full book of DF music.

I wouldn't say that.  It's mostly way more haven't-listened-to-death.

I haven't listened the guitar version to death either. I've always turned it off and played more varied music instead. I maintain that the piano version is way better.

Fantastic. I have to say, I love the theme music for DF. One of my big hopes for future releases is that Toady makes some more of the same.

I agree; it sounds much more fancy on piano.


Toady should trade it out, actually...

I always had the theme to be something unfittingly (or not) dark for DF. The piano version confirms this. It's so beautiful. It fits with the tragicalness that a fortress can inspire.

I want the DF main menu theme song to be changed to what you played, shame I don't know how to do it.

Is there a few other people playing this with different instruments? Wind, String and perhaps Percussion would be an interesting mix of methods. Though Percussion would be quite hard :p though it would be very dwarvy...

There's a link in the OP to a file you can download with the .OGG files of the music included. In there you'll find an OGG file called song_titles. Replace the song_titles in your DF 'Sound' folder with that and you're sorted. You can do the same with song_game too if you like.
