Third EarthMusic Ok, since we talked about it in the discussion thread, I figured a thread dedicated to fantasy/celtic music would be a good idea. You could listen to these songs while writing a post to get you in the right mindset. I'll start things off: "Over the Hills and Far Away" by Nightwish Style - It's sort of celtic operatic rock. Plus has an awesome fantasy video Hopefully I'll find some more songs soon. Only one Song per post. No flooding single posts with five links to you tube. ~Raven.
Some songs I have been listening to while playing Third Earth and they kind of get me in the fantasy mood: Howling Halls-Fable 2 Soundtrack A.k.a Song I made Morpheus too
Mythos November. This is a favourite melodic track. While I was writing the story Blood oath I would listen to this for the inspiration.
Era as a band are very inspirational for Fantasy style fiction and I think this track called Mother is an inspirational track on its own. Era - Mother
Enya is someone I just cannot leave out when it comes to listening to the beauty of celtic music. And so here is a fine track that works well for me. Enya - Listen To The Rain
Here's a song that is perfect for epic battles. One Winged Angel. And yes, all you gamers out there will likely recognize it. This is the Advent Children version of the song.
Planxty Lady Wrixon by Howard Baer; used to listen to this all the time writing for Crystan, but now it seems to have transcended the worlds. Favorite Celtic piece.
Spasmeno Karavi-Dimitri Mpasis This is fantasy to me as well, maybe not to you guys, but me yes this is music from my land and my people Greece[I didn't make the song and don't know the person who made it, but yeah] Edit: My daddy says it may be Moraccon...ooops I'm slow at these things now adays.
Not sure if you guys will find it to your liking but I've used this a couple of times while writing for third earth http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=43O7Dyd3QtU
To Zanarkand. Any fantasy gamer out there will recognize both song and video. Another one of my favorites.
Croi Croga. This I listened to while writing the tale of Skraal:Blood Oath. If you listen to it. It will give you an insight into Skraals story and Skraal himself. Clannad - Croi Croga
A celtic music thread without Elvenking or Loreena Mckennitt? Im ashamed of all of you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIghrxxhQYs&feature=related
Originally meant to be the soundtrack for Nomio in Continent, it instead turned into a general RPG-theme for me. Besides, Lionheart fitted better with his personality and character development. And offcourse, my inspiration for Oskar, so the true Third Earth song, according to Oskar
