Musical dwarfs? Oh Myyyyy!
« on: October 27, 2011, 10:07:23 pm »
I have been fiddling too much with DF recently so when I saw this video...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTCJ5hedcVA
...I immediately thought "If dwarfs sung, I bet they would sing like this!".

None of that faux-Celtic or Scotts malarky, proper odd singing as is appropriate for DF.

How do you think dwarfs would rock out? Should we have musical dwarfs in DF?

I have a naturally deep voice, I've been sir'd over the phone a few times, really hate it...  Looked into changing my voice naturally, and started practicing vocal drills and muscular tension.

With that in mind, throat singing makes my heart explode and my throat burns as I imagine what the hell crazy stress they're putting on their vocal chords and throat muscles!  That's like, geeze...

Throat singing is my favorite thing ever. I love trippy soundscapes. I wish that you could train your dwarves to do that.

Blue Dwarf has been happy lately. He did some !!science!! recently. He admired a fine forum post lately. He was enraged by a forum troll recently. He was upset by the delayed release of the new version of Dwarf Fortress lately. He took joy in planning a noble's death recently.

This is a limestone flute. On the flute is the ballad of Urvad Rosatathel throwing a badger at the plains Titan dumat Isbel.
