Hi all, I'm just starting the SCAP, and I've been putting together a soundtrack for various specific events. My players strongly dislike "traditional" medieval music, like you'd hear at a renaissance fair. So these are all a bit less cheesy and hopefully more exciting or suitable.
My goal is to have music chosen for important moments, and at other times, not have any music. That way when the music comes on the players know it's time to pay attention and stop throwing erasers at each other, because Important Stuff is about to happen!
Here's what I have so far, uploaded as mp3s. It's not much but I'm going to try and figure some more out today. I'll edit the list as more are finalized. The numbers refer to what chapter it takes place in, and I've added what mood/feeling I'm hoping the song will evoke.
01 Jzadirune A
Clockwork, deserted feel. Mysterious.
01 Jzadirune B
Also mysterious, but more of a magical mood.
04 Cusp of Sunrise
Choral version of Final Fantasy 6's opera scene. Perfect background music for a posh club like the Cusp.
04 Kuo-Toa Fortress A
Approaching/entering Bhal Hamatugn. Edgy and ominous, slightly creepy. Huge sense of building tension which leads to...
04 Kuo-Toa Fortress B
Bhal Hamatugn, on full alert! Frantic, fast-paced. Sense of overwhelming numbers. Unholy feel. There's even a rhythmic clanging that starts at 0:40 that I might actually have be Zenith, clanging on a shield or something.
04 Zenith Splintershield
Showdown music! Still has the holy chanting, but this song sounds more "crazy" then "evil" to me.
07 Assaulting the Cathedral
Regal and powerful, but distinctly fitting an evil church...especially one that is a cathedral stretching into the sky.
Do you have a song/artist list for those...?
Didn't even think of that, I'll add those in if I still have their original source info.

Zenith Splintershield is the Esper battle music from FFXII.
I'm fairly sure they're all from the various Final Fantasy soundtracks, actually...
Kuo-Toa Fortress tracks are identified as being from the Advent Children movie.
Kuo-Toa Fortress A is 'Kita no Daikuudou'
Kuo-Toa Fortress B is 'Battle in the Forgotten City'
Both are attributed to Nobuo Uematsu.
Zenith Splintershield is the 'Esper' track from FFXII; attributed to Hitoshi Sakimoto.
Wow, that's impressive! I knew those two were from Advent Children, but I had no idea which songs they were. I'm still trying to find out what the two Jzadirune songs are.
...also, I just found out that you can't edit old posts. :\ So I'll have to leave the list for now, until I've got a bunch of new ones to post.

They sound like they *might* be from FFXI, AKA Final Fantasy Online. I'm not sure, as I haven't taken time to check my mp3s on that one.
I also wasn't able to download the last song; it comes across as a 0-byte 'blip'.
