Sound ambience album "Medieval Fantasy RPG Game - Soundscapes and Ambience" at Soundcloud

[Petike the Taffer]

I recently found this 2022 album of environmental sound ambience (no music) on Soundcloud, by an author going by the moniker of "Cyberwave Orchestra".

It's likely not royalty-free and you have to buy it and such, but I think it might be useful for FM authors if they want a few more custom ambient soundscapes for their FMs. The tracks loop.

Having listened to the album, I think the most useful for TDM FM purposes would be the sound ambience of outdoors nature ("Mountain Canyon", "From Dusk Till Dawn", "The Swamps at Night", the "Cursed Lands", "Cursed Lands 2" tracks), underground spaces ("Secret Cave 2"), maybe industrial ("The Great Mine" and "The Great Mine 2", I suppose), dungeon/prison spaces ("Dungeon of Sorrow", "Dungeon of Madness", "Chambers of Hell (No Boiling)", "Chambers of Hell 2") and some of the rural ambience (the "Fishing Village", "Fishing Village At Night" ambience tracks, "Summer Night Near The Village").

The tracks with more urban sound ambience aren't bad, but might not be quite what we need for most TDM mission night time town/city ambience. IMHO, they feel like mostly daytime ambience. 

The two "Port Town" and "Port Town (No Bells)" ambience tracks seem by far the best fit for town ambience of TDM. "Village on a Windy Day" could work for dusk and the early evening, but not night.

"Onboard the Ship (No Voices)" might work for a ship docked in port at night time, but it might feel a bit loud to FM-builder tastes. I'd suggest lowering the volumes and doing similar tweaks.

Thank you. If you want, you can also share your post in this music resource thread I started a while back. I think it would fit nicely.

Yes, I know. I've included some track selections from FMA in the music resource thread. The one downside is that some of the authors have since pulled their music from there or it's gone due to different causes, so not all the links I originally included still work. It can be a bit of a hassle for me to regularly update all the links to various free music databases. Even so, thank you.

If you download the musicfiles it's irrelevant if it continue existing online or the links not longer work. You can legally download the music files from FMA and Pixabay locally or to an own host and use it in your projects, even commercial (CC license, naming the author as much)

I know, it's just that I didn't download most of them while they were there.
