    Default To EB team: Why not use this music?

    Since the EB music is all about being authentic to ancient Hellenic pieces, why not use the Song of Seikilos?
    This is not only the oldest surviving music, but also is a beautiful work, and a brilliant example of Greek culture.

    Here is a link, along with an article discussing life in the song's era.

    You can go into the \EB\Data\Sounds\music directory and replace any of the songs with another mp3.

    What I'm proposing is perhaps a 'music patch' for europa, so that everyone can enjoy this song.
    I feel it is a natural addition, and it plays very well with the other hellenic songs the team uses.

    Nice song, but I think a song with vocals might not fit as background music.

    I know, what you mean, but IMO this song fits perfectly as a backround music.

    If its copyrighted we will not use it.
    While the lyrics might not be copyrighted, that specific piece of music is I think.

    I see. So why not ask the current owner for permission, who's to say they wouldn't agree?
