Thread question : >What kind of music do you listen to while you write ?
I'm actually inspired by music to make/play a game. Recently I've been inspired for a few things: A Talislanta game youtu.be/gvCmtHDDuu0 A postapocalyptic western-sandalpunk game, probably Gamma World youtu.be/gzDqCcTeSmY A Cyberpunk 2020 game youtu.be/Sk-U8ruIQyA

Been listening to a lot of movie soundtracks lately but I'm interested in video game soundtracks as well. Do you guys know any I could use as ambiance ?
Nolan Gutierrez
Nice ! What do you think you're gonna do with them ?

I've got an opportunity to run SLA Industries once again. Here are some albums I use for current campagin.
I also decided to do some soundscapes. Basically all of it is rain with some street ambiance. I use this program, so far it's pretty good: softrope.net/
Brandon Carter
I quite like softrope myself but since I edit videos and music as a day job I often mix my own things to create soundscapes with Adobe Audition.
Tyler Myers
Maybe I should make a spotify with my soundscape for my fellow grea/tg/uys
I wish I could contribute more, this thread has had a lot for me: youtube.com/watch?v=qFTs7AbU2Ho&t Soliloquy for Lilith is the album I think it's something like dark ambiance, not too good with music genres
Ethan Stewart
Thank y'all for contributing !

There are some good apps for tabletop music/sound effects I've personally been using >RPG Fantasy Sounds >RPGsound on Android and they work great

We've also used Ghost as backdrop music. I remember using Mummy Dust during a battle against a corrupt church bishop who was sacrificing people to a dark god and using becoming fat off all the gold he was being given as tithes (and the people he was eating)
In my piracy/ age of sail game, I make liberal use of the Assassin Creed 4 soundtrack and shanties, but I personally love youtube.com/watch?v=ZIwzRkjn86w and the rest of his work as a way to get people into the mood.
DARK AMBIENT Dark ambient is made in 4 ways A)Soundtrack to a horror movie B)The field recording of a horror movie C)A + B D)Just a wierd song And if you want to be specific: E)A with minimalistic B F)B With minimalistic A
Also artists usually try to fit on those themes
Average dark ambient Themes:All kinds of themes Artist: Lustmord Type: A, D, C and E
Drone Ambient Themes: Mistery, "something is going to happen but I dont know why/what" Artists: Oophoi Types:A and D Other: Has drone music influences.
Black Ambient Theme: Black metal themes Types: D Other: Has black metal influences
Death Ambient Themes: Monsters, apocalipse Types:B and F Other: Here, the sounds of the stuff happening is in your face.
Deep Ambient Themes: Caves, top of amoutain, lost somewhere Artist:Amon Type: B and D Other Very minimalistic, sometimes windy stuff
Ritual Ambient Types: All Theme:Ritual or meditative stuff Artists: Endvra Other: traditional Folk influences, sometimes new age influences,....
There is also military ambient and neoclassical ambient, but I am not putting them here, because most of the time those names are wrongly used to stuff that is not dark ambient, on the case of military ambient they use it for martial industrial and on the case of neoclassical ambient most of the time they use for neoclassical darkwave.
Some guys split into more stuff, but the other stuff they name its basically the same stuff posted here (most of them would fit in average dark ambient type)
