Music in-game?
« on: September 01, 2011, 01:58:44 pm »

Hey guys,

I was just wondering, as it is rather a good topic in most places to discus, what music do you listen to when playing Dwarf Fortress?

Do you love to rock your dwarves to heavy metal? Or just glide through your fort to some, calmer, jazz? Or even just listen to the joys of the games music? Whatever you do, share it here! :D

Personally, recently ive been learning the game, so ive not payed much attention to this, and im busy watching tutorials while playing by the side to learn...

I'm content with the default DF music, so I don't normally put on other music. But when I do, I put on songs from Nintendo and Rare games.

There's an off-and-on, semi-recent topic for it in Dwarf Mode discussion.
http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=78678.0

If you want to start a new topic here, that would be perfectly acceptable.
I'll just said what I said there:
TAMusic
Motion City Soundtrack
Apocalyptica
Although, I might listen to some metal, if I'm in a particularly dwarfy mood.

Yes, but that's about music relating to Dwarf Fortress; this is just about what people listen to.

Does that really mean we need to have another "post music here" thread, of which there's one every week?

No, of course not. There are a lot of unneeded repeat threads flopping about. They either sink or float.

im fine with the game music.

however just based on how dwarves are, id say they probably like rock music.


don't read the spoiler if you are a troll who happens to like rap.

I actually listen to rap more often when I'm playing games. I reserve metal for when I'm working or thinking.

I suggest we rerail this topic by getting music that is similar to the original dwarf fortress track. May I suggest the stalker guitar songs?
