Please read the whole post before replying.


So i’m running a somewhat rp heavy game and i’m trying to find ways to help the immersion. I thought about adding some background music to help keep the game’s tone. Nothing crazy or heavy, just a long playlist of instrumental music loud enough to listen to but not so much that players would need to talk over it.

My aim is to have 2 playlist (combat, non combat, and off for events which neither fit), both about 6+ hours, instrumental music fitting of a low fantasy medieval setting.

Example of noncombat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFcFTj-nEK0
Example of combat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTScgw-MF94

I’m looking for advice on music during play (in general) and on music which fits into my categories.
If you have a suggestion please link me a track rather than just saying “skyrim or wow”

I tried asking my FB rp group, but after 3 post the thread was filled with dubstep and R&B (hence the asking to read fully)

Thank you
