    Holy Post resurrection Batman... You pulled this one out of 2014!

    Yep Back in the 80's, Conan the Barbarian and Destroyer records in the background (Along with Other Moody, Dark music, that I could find kicking around).

    We always have something playing.  Could be Celtic/folk for sylvan settings, heavy metal or classic rock for darker themes.  I've also used the Lord of the Rings & Hobbit soundtracks as background music.  And yes, the Conan soundtrack is superb as well.

    Great list Matteus. Check out The Descent by David Julyan - great twist away from traditional instrumentation and drawn out dread.
