Music?

[Arto]

Are we going to use the music from M2TW/Kingdoms?

Also, could someone give me a list of some gaelic/irish/scottish/welsh/norse folk bands? and videos to, please?
I'll start

http://www.wardruna.com/

Wardruna is a Norwegian musical constellation set out to explore and evoke the depths of Norse wisdom and spirituality. Musically Wardruna has its main focus on the cultic musical language found in the near-forgotten arts of galder, seidr and the daily acts of the cultic life, mixed with impulses from Norwegian / Nordic folk music and music from other indigenous cultures.
The upcoming album entitled ‘gap var Ginnunga’ will be the first in the planned Runaljod trilogy that will interpret the runes of the elder futhark. The subsequent albums will be entitled ‘Yggdrasill’ and ‘Ragnarok’. Each album will feature eight runes, but not in accordance with the order of the three aettirs (families), which is most commonly used. ‘gap var Ginnunga’ will feature the following runes

EDIT: I found this

Don't worry about the music. Someone's already started a thread in the dev forum (plus I mentioned it first in the Suggestions thread) and we're going to be using music from M2TW, MTW, MTW:VI and RTW:BI. Hopefully we'll create some culture-specific soundtracks and they'll be included in the first release.

Arent we going to have the kingdoms music also? The britannia music would have fitted great!

Yes. If the combined soundtrack for some reason doesn't happen, then I think Britannia will be the default music.

Ok, nice to hear! Hope the new music comes too! Will there be new battlemusic too? I need some real hardcore, with some wardrums in it

Due to copyright issues, we're trying to stick to mostly Total War music. If anybody can find a talented composer willing to help us for free, please let us know.

P.S. Always plenty of wardrums.

the first 1:40 of this song, badass song from a badass composer


taking bits from a song is not illegal its only illegal if you use the entire song, and your not going to find a song with more badass wardrums then this

Not necessarily good for the mod's time frame (I don't think Vikings were particularly proficient with Electric Guitars), but these songs always get me in the mood to raid and pillage

Hail Manowar

[The Northern Marches]

Have we yet to find a good title/opening track?

[Heathen Hammer]

During battles I think some viking or folk metal wouldn't be bad. :

that would totally ruin the realism and immersion though.

Due to copyright reasons it is impossible to include music from bands etc.

That's why danova recruited me to compose some custom tracks for this really awesome Mod.

My interpretation of the music you've already posted here, will be similar to the Kingdoms teutonic soundtrack, but with some more Celtic elements, like Highland pipes, Bagpipes, Celtic Guitar, Irish flute and so on.

The main aim should be creating a soundtrack, which is really dark. A dark soundtrack for a Dark Age Mod, allright?

That's amazing news! Can't wait to feel the dark atmosphere once the mod shines in all it's glory =)
