<font color = "lightgreen">Come on: you may like listening to that score from IWD or BG2 a few times, but after a while it grows almost as old as that bare-butt picture your folks took of you when you were teething and which they'll sell you negatives of to support their retirement. You have to listen to something else, so...what do you listen to, when you're playing, to help keep in the mood?</font>

Well at the moment i am listening to Smashing pumpins greatest hits, dont know what i will listen to when i am finished with that, probably go back to offspring americana.

Godspeed You Black Emperor!
And the first one to mistake that with any kind of metal, should be ashamed; it's instrumental avant-gardistic hypnotizing and incredibly beautiful music, and perfect and relaxing for when you're playing BG2. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Right now im listening to metallica.
I like a lot besides metallica.
You can put it this way:
I like everything exept the crap they show on MTV.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the song 'Lost You Somewhere' by a group called 'Chicane' is just about the best song you'll ever find as background music. It is especially good for playing Baldur's Gate [img]smile.gif[/img]

A friend of mine cobbled together this compilation of famous film soundtracks and other likely tunes. There's the Babylon 5 theme, 'The Battle' from 'Gladiator', some music from 'The Rock', 'Amon Hen' from 'Fellowship of the Ring', 'Duel of the Fates' from 'Star Wars: Episode 1', 'The Warriors' from Michel Flatley's Lord of the Dance, the theme music to Star Trek: First Contact (also known as 'Jupiter' from The Planets), the theme from 'Starship Troopers'... lots of things. It's the best roleplaying tape I've found. Shame it's not commercially available, but I would say orchestral film soundtracks are pretty good in general.

I like to listen to the soundtrack for "Conan The Barbarian", it just makes me feel so powerful!! [img]graemlins/viking.gif[/img]

Just now I like hearing Gladiator's and LotR's music. I really like killing orc and hearing Gladiator's music!

i have music from Final Fantasy games playing usually. also now i have Anti-flag and System of a Down in the background as well, so i dont usually concentrate on any one band for my music [img]smile.gif[/img] . although my list is mostly Anti-flag...

I usually have Final Fantasy music playing too. Or a band like Blink 182, or some rap. Depends on the mood I guess.
