Nintey-nine nights music would be rather cool. I remember once listening to Mozart when we were in large-scale battles and it sounded awsome.

Juzza

The Witcher 1 & 2 soundtracks.

You may also want to consider Fallout Tactics and Brotherhood of Steel

There may also be some tracks from the Arcanum soundtrack, particularly the tracks, Kerghans Castle and The Void, the other tracks are probably ill suiting.

An Adventure game called Daemonica also had a great soundtrack, but I couldn't find much on it I'm afraid. This gameplay video was the best I could find.

To get the full soundtrack for Daemonica you'd probably need to download the game.

I hope you find some you like here!

Disco

Conan the Barbarian soudtrack is nice.

Also I love to have this song playing.
Quotesome giant troll link, because I'm a bonehead.  Durr.

you axed for it

As much as I didn't enjoy the movie, the soundtrack to Pan's Labyrinthe should definitely be mined for any new music update.

Nuclear Catastrophe

To update there've been some awesome suggestions so far, (though technically my favorite idea was mine anyway, the warhammer 40k music one - Jeremy Soule is exceptional), and CroakingOpera's jungle themes get a look in.

There have also been some shamefully embarassing choices picked too, and I'll go through those now, with a view to perhaps enlightening the kind people on what is actually required here :D

Not convinced that I want LOTR themes.  Although it's an obvious pick, they're too intrinsically linked with their subject matter, and too many people will recognise the Bridge of Khazad Dhum or whatever for it to be worthwhile for me!

The stronghold tracks you posted are 35 seconds long Luke Danger, what the hell?

Don't want any heavy metal in the background for NwN (!!!)

Definitely don't want the GAME OF THRONES theme.  You best be trollin'.  How will that fit a jaunt in the jungle, or a delve into a crypt, or sitting around Mistlocke?  Plus it's very short.

I might have a look at Gladiator and Pans Labyrinth.  Ambient music on a decent budget scale can work.

Will get through some more soon :)

Huh? That's odd. They should go to mulit-minute marks, usually ~ 3 5/6's minutes. Links work fine for me.

Edit: OH, only one of them is 35 seconds long, "the Chant", the rest of the Stronghold soundtrack is generally multi-minute. Few more Stronghold links.

Ah, Age of Mythology. That's some good music.

Here's some from Rise of Legends, a game that mixes the sci-fi, steampunk/clockpunk, and high sci-fi genre (with a bit of a Goa'uld twist)

Vinci Victory Theme: (Badass victory for the industrialists)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFWjwSrl5N4
Lenora's Theme: (beautiful quiet piece)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4QfXb1fPHQ&feature=related
Vinci Non-Combat Theme:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJDV3LtZ9FQ&feature=related
Alin Victory Theme: (Another badass victory, this time for the mystics)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1Q6qHwaMZY&feature=related
Alin Non-combat Theme: (beautiful flute/violin bit)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2T_LUctuJSo&feature=related
Clash of the Races: (Gives a feeling of epic battle on the horizon)

Black Sands album by Bonobo. Ambient, yet strangely fitting. Try the title track.

Soundtrack to a Vacant Life by the Flashbulb. Hello, I'm Benn is particularly great.

I listen to these a lot when playing.
i walked one morning to the fair

Kinslayer988

I found that Apocalyptica has some good stuff, especially the alblum 'Cult'
<SkillFocuspwn> no property developers among men only brothers

Laughing Octopus

This is one I thought would work well for wandering the forgotten forest. It's got a mysterious theme to it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUz5I9FsFWs

Something fitting for a keep or maybe even nebezzdos itself. It instills an imposing or challenging theme to mind.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtzPn8dQuO4

Something like a poison brewer's lab, or an assassin's den. The locale of shady dealings.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdpii3CW7rc

I think this would fit that desert area pretty well, if it ever develops.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCjQyL9jgOI

Good cave music, to instill a sense of loneliness and apprehension.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yX7I_S2UIcU

I think this creates a good vibe of yourself viewing something ancient, something grander than yourself and your machinations.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdZP93aWtB4

A long battle, between rivals of equal strength. Or possible a portside brawl.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Za0rP2dwtxY

A good theme song for the order or the pallid mask if I've ever heard one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0sQALQPYp4

Good night travel, or deep below nebezzdos. Dark places that seem alive, yet should definitely not be.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLkYIiWtgXI

This makes a great song for traveling the desert, keeping an eye out for whereever those marauders may lurk.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mXVdQEtyvM

And for when they do find you, you got this as a great fight song.

I can think of a bunch more if you're interested.

Great tunes, couldn't find any mp3 download links on the internet for love nor money :(   Like it though

Quote from: "Laughing Octopus"Lots of manga tunes links

Fairly decent, not really anything standout that I thought really truly captured Mistlocke.  Kind of more fitting for JRPG's.  Not bad music or anything, but not EfU.

Quote from: "Juzza"Awakening and highland links

Also like that stuff Relinquish.  Going through it all now.

Got those.   Good picks and exactly what I wanted now I think :)
