Music II?
-
Hearthstone has some excellent and funny trailers, with fantastic music (and visuals).
Here are a few:
-
Some upbeat and easy listening (and viewing):
Modjo - Chillin' - the upbeat.
Pogo - Bloom- the easy. Pogo does a bunch of songs like this, with old Disney clips. They're great. Grow Fonder is another.

This never fails to brighten my day and I haven't met anyone yet who hates it. Enjoy what you never asked for but always needed..... Sweet Dreams are made of These + trumpets.

I’ve never heard this one before, nice find. Sounds like it could be a town theme for a new Zelda game

And, I couldn't possibly do quintessential 60's music without this one. It's the birth of acid rock in 1967. The group is Jefferson Airplane (they changed their name to Jefferson Starship in the 1970s). The lead singer is Grace Slick (though that's not her in the video). It's based (loosely) on Lewis Carol's Through the Looking Glass, but it's really about the drug culture. Listen especially for the driving percussion and rhythm guitar.

I hope you all won't mind another 1960's throwback. This is Brazil 66's remake of a Beatles number. The lead female singer is Lani Hall, who was married to Herb Alpert. This is quintessential 60's music.

I know few of you are able to remember the 1960s. This video of the Tijuana Brass from about 1966 will give you an example of what some of the fun music of that era was about. The trumpet band leader is Herb Alpert. Notice the same mustache styles on some of the men and all the women used on set as props.

Here is another Polish Youth Orchestra. This one is playing music from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Notice how many kids are wearing Harry Potter glasses.

Here for your classical/pops music fix for the week is a really excellent youth orchestra from Poland playing themes from Pirates of the Caribbean.

Here's another good example of a professional orchestra (and chorus) doing a really innovative rendition of an old movie theme. This is the contemporary Danish National Symphony playing musical themes from The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly (from c. 1969). Notice how the human voice is used as an instrument.

Music dump from my characters' playlists while I look at the rest here!
Ok so I always have YouTube running in the background when I play (NWN is windowed), and I have a playlist for most of my characters which I'll either put on randomised mode while playing them or be trawling through other music on YouTube for bits to add. Every time I stumble across something I think fits a character, into their playlist it goes. Some of them for my most played characters have FAR too many videos in.
Sapeh Madurni, current main. A Rashemi warrioress inspired by a lot of classic D&D stuff. She's fairly new and doesn't have a fleshed out playlist yet.
(Go for the eyes, Na'roo!)
Lots of Russian/Armenian/Bulgarian folk music in here, as you might expect. The first one is really the main one. Most that turn up at the sides are in there too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRjxlU5EM_Y
And a healthy dose of tracks from Mask of the Betrayer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJ-iq6PbZIU
Skyrim… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWGEOpAwMQg
Dragon Age and Baldur's Gate, as well as these remake by Scott Buckley which are amazing - and the BG one has duduk! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5B0srsB0n3g
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ru74_gExV8
Weirdest addition is probably Stereo Alchemy's "Monster of the Sky", which is based off a Byron poem and works well for her relationship with Uvarvanen and reverence of the Powers of wind and storm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxhp3yV6F4gHelene Loyallar, previous main and my first character on Narfell.
A half-elven sorceress from Haruaa, whose magic is borne from deep powers of the ancient oceans. At first she was a fairly prissy, noble character, but as her powers and the horrors of the reality of their nature manifested, things got pretty Lovecraftian. You might notice that trend if you look through her playlist in order…
Best illustration of this is probably Song of Sirens https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TRc6A13ORc
And "Welcome to Rapture" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El9sDzEYHQA
and a fair number of Whitacre songs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5igTefQaJqsKevmorn Arrowbrand is a visiting Cleric of Gond, all the way from Lantan.
His playlist has a lot of chiptune, steampunk and electronic influences.Talindra Tir'eir is an older character I haven't done so much with. An elven fighter-ranger who doesn't think too highly of humans. She has a playlist too.
Rari Marblehammer doesn't get a playlist. But since she's a dwarfy dwarf I do have a dwarfy dwarf playlist.
