Your Soundtrack Mods

Post by gerishnakov »

What sort of music has everyone modded into their DW soundtrack? It would be nice to get a little inspiration from others as, even though I feel like I've added a lot of stuff I still seem to be hearing the same things quite often!

To mine I've added:

The soundtracks to Halo 1, 2 & 3
As above for Mass Effect 1, 2 & 3
The soundtrack from the 2009 movie 'Moon' (Clint Mansell, worked on Mass Effect 3)
As above for the 2012 Tom Cruise movie 'Oblivion'
A few choice tracks from the Star Wars soundtracks (all of it would be too much, and a lot of it too scene specific)
Soundtrack to 'The Social Network' (aka the Facebook movie, Trent Reznor[Nine Inch Nails])
As above for 'Tron Legacy' (Daft Punk)

... and also the theme from Star Trek Deep Space Nine.

I may or may not have put in exactly what you did, plus;

- Galactic Civilizations 2 & 3 soundtracks
- Sins of a Solar Empire soundtrack, and the soundtrack from its mods like Sins of the Prophets.
- Tons of other things

-Starcraft 1&2 OST's
-Dawn of War OST
-System Shock 2 OST
-Mass Effect OST's

And just about any good industrial: KMFDM, Grendel, etc.

EDIT: Unforeseen's avatar reminded me that I also run the Deus Ex and Deus Ex: human revolution OST's as well. Good stuff.

I'm too lazy to play around with modding game music when I can just play Winamp. ;)
It's not like DW uses particularly dynamic changes or something.

I tend to run 3rd party software with my music, too. It's a bit easier than filling up my drive with copies of music I already own.

As for the music itself, it seems I've gone in a different direction than most of you have.

Sure, I have the usual suspects like music from Star Trek and Star Wars. I also have the battle music from First Knight and some tracks from Gladiator.

Mostly though I have "space" sounding music from Stellardrone and Carbon Based Life Forms.

Here's an example:

Abiogenesis
"Only one human captain has survived battle with a Minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else." - Delenn of Minbar

OK. I am using the first track from "Vertikal" by Cult of Luna. Some assorted music from the beautifully sad film "what dreams may come".Tangram set 1 & 2 by Tangerine Dream and some stuff I did myself using music creator 6.
Huh?
