10-11-04, 02:20 AM The question has been asked of Hellcow, we might as well take a shot at it. What music would you have playing in the background while you explore and master the Dragon Between?
For me, I'd take:
about 60% of the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack, which rules so much
Pleasing Falsetto, by Moist
Jada's Got A Gun, by Jadakiss
Sympathy for the Devil, by Guns 'N Roses (the Rolling Stones version is nice but this one rules)
I Shot The Sheriff, by Bob Marley and the Wailers
Black Black Heart, by David Usher
The Whole World by Outkast ft. Killer Mike
Mack the Knife (ne version will do)
Born to be Wild by Steppenwolf

Let's hear some music folks! :D

10-11-04, 08:16 AM Blind Guardian and lots of it, for the fights god dammit.

And there is this other really good group, but i cant remember their name. They made some Robin Hood music, which is just awesome.
WizO_Sith
10-11-04, 10:04 AM I've used the "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "Indiana Jones & The Temple of Doom", and "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" soundtracks (not the main title theme which is so identified with the title character it tends, IMX, to jar the players out of the game).

I've also gotten a lot of milage out of the "Conan The Barbarian" soundtrack.

10-11-04, 11:37 AM Sky Captain and that is all I want to say or need to say...

10-11-04, 11:40 AM Dresden Dolls - A boston group with lots of style, great for when your players visit one of the theatres of Sharn
Falconer - Spore's personal favorite adventuring music.
Demons & Wizards - A joint project between a gamer favourite Blind Guardian and a classic speed metal band Iced Earth. Very good, mellow songs with a folky feel.
Switchblade Symphony - Just because.
Corvus Corax - Traditional medieval style played by a Death metal band. and sung in Latin; could you really ask for any more? Suggested songs: "In Taberna"," Mille anni passe sunt"
Floggy Molly - Zed like 'em. Good for taverns or fights.
Hellboy Soundtrack - Instrumental music, great for battles and cityscapes.
Front Line Assembly - OK, so it's a little too industrial. It's still good to get your creative juices flowing as a DM.

I took a few from an article I'm writing.

Megatron, I LOVE you, and I wish to have your babies! Before the CSB was even out, I suggested this band for the setting, but no one seemed to have heard of them; I guess they are a little unknown. I've worked with them and seen them play several times, and they gave me free CDs and swag, so I figured I'd pimp them a little on the boards. I'm glad that someone else has heard of them.

Long live the punk cabaret (http://dresdendolls.com/)!

Any non-lyrical tracks by Amon Tobin/Cujo
Mournlands - mid-90s grunge, specifically Soundgarden.
Aundair, Aerenal - The Cinematic Orchestra
Somebloke
10-11-04, 08:54 PM Does anyone know any good orchestral/choir music with a modern update? I'm running in Thrane after all...
Splendide
10-11-04, 09:00 PM The Polyphonic Spree? Probably not solemn enough though.
Caul
10-11-04, 09:12 PM Okay, you might think this is weird, but my party's theme song is Crawlin' In the Dark by Hoobastank...the lyrics do it...
perringaiden
10-11-04, 10:44 PM I actually raised the same question on the Morgrave University forums, putting my ideas in there

Morgrave University (http://eberron.nightchilde.net/)

Mournland
Sacred Spirit 2 - Culture Clash : Not all tracks, but some are very slow and sorrowful
Hans Zimmer - Black Hawk Down : Only some tracks again

Eldeen Reaches
Sacred Spirit - Tribal Music of the Native Americans : Good for a nature-based spiritual feel

Sharn
Eric Serra - The Fifth Element (Soundtrack) : Some of this is too modern/industrial, but it gives some good action tracks and some good ones to give the feel of sweeping towers etc.

True, which is why I'm interested. I've been finding it hard to find anything to show Sharn, without it getting too modern. Something that is busy but highlights the *air* in Sharn.

3 - Daniel Johns and Paul Mac

10-12-04, 12:12 AM I've used the Read or Die soundtrack - some great generic spy music in there. Also, Nadia: Secret of Blue water.

I've never heard Dresden Dolls, but I like the look :)

Switchblade Symphony? Would've never thought of using them, but that *is* a good idea.

FLA is never too industrial, just use when appropriate. I've used that style in fantasy campaigns and never had a problem.

I'd suggest Midnight Syndicate's non-D&D soundtrack albums. Very good, picked them up at GenCon03.
RadicalTaoist
10-12-04, 01:43 PM The soundtrack to the documentary The Civil War by Ken Burns is good for campaigns close to the events of the Last War.
Might as well what I feel are the most Eberrony pieces from the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack, composed by Yoko Kanno.
From the first CD
Tank!
Rush
Spokey Dokey
Piano Black
Rain
Memory

Minidisc (Vitaminless)
The Real Folk Blues (End Theme)
SPY
Piano Bar I

Second CD
Green Bird
Want It All Back

Third CD
Go Go Cactus Man
The Real Man
New York Rush
Adieu
Road to the West
Farewell Blues
The Real Folk Blues (So Long Space Cowboy version)

Movie OST
Clutch
MUSAWE
What Planet is This?
Fingers
Powder
No Money

That's all.
While we're on it, Only In Dreams by Weezer is THE song for a psionics/Kalashtar themed campaign in Eberron.
TheScalesOfFate
10-12-04, 02:11 PM "Tu Mira" from Kill Bill. My DM used it when we faced down a longtime nemesis. Fun stuff, that Kill Bill Soundtrack.
