I've seen in some of the Bardic stuff that there are songs and rhyme's written, but has anyone put music to them? Is there any Achaean music? Curious and I would love to hear it...

Yllniri or whatever his forum name was, had a rap battle a couple years ago. That was pretty sweet. Got a lot of the people out of the woodwork too, but I dont see many of them post or be IG any more

Achaea Rap?!?!?! XD

lol there is a post once a year by an enterprising teen who wants to show he's a musical genius claiming he's composing an Achaean score.

nothing beyond that.

Damn...

Well, the problem is that music is rather abstract per se. It's pretty much impossible to make "distinctly Achaean" music, apart from just using lyrics that have to do with Achaea - and in that case it's just "some music to Achaea-related poetry". And most people would probably just write some stereotypical fantasy game music that just seems to fit because other games with a similar setting use a similar music.

Unless someone was doing something like actually trying to turn the text of a in-game bardic concert into music, or try to realize some unique characteristic sounds that are described in-game (there aren't too many of those however), which would at least create an actual link to the game that goes beyond the lyrics of a song.

there actually is, though i never thought to put lyrics in it.

pm me for further info

I know Saadya did some fantasy/soundtrack-ish music themed around achaea. Those were actually really well done.

I did a piece of actual music for one of Rok's bardic songs too.

Rok's songs are damn awesome.

I wanna hear this stuff!

I still have Tenebrus's saved somewhere. I'll find it later.

Awesome

Groton and I wrote a song once....it will never see the light of day


one cause we would have to record it
two our band is on hiatus

Yay, Tenebrus is now a movie star.

Hi Tenebrus!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahaha

the accent

Classic.

.... How did you know!

Im composing an achaean score

Lol!

curare is similar to Ferrari?

Aaaaahahhahahahahahahahaha.

Oh wow. Tenebrus just won life.



Edit: Every single one of the suggested videos after it have something to do with "booty shaking" or something similar. This is further evidence of Tenebrus winning life.

That was pretty much the greatest thing ever.

Why did Tenebrus win life, I put the video together!

Just because he made the recording and picked that gif as his avatar doesn't mean that he is cooler than me

So I had some callers over last night to play Starcraft and Diablo 2 over LAN for a while. Everything was going well until I decided to show them Fantastic Contraption before they left. My computer froze for some reason and I had to reboot. Well under normal circumstances I keep about 20 browser tabs open, and this day was no exception. Unfortunately, somewhere among the pages was the link to the Tenerap that Hieyoko posted. My speakers were turned up, and the song came on. I didn't want to close out all of Firefox because we were playing Fantastic Contraption, but I did want to turn off Tene's page if I could find it... as the visitors started to raise their eyebrows I attempted to sidescroll through the links, accidentally clicking on the Achaea home page tab instead and finally getting frustrated. I reached forward to just manually turn off the dial on my speaker but only succeeded in knocking it to the ground.

As the sound of "Thief, thief, baby" wafted up from below, I mashed the mute button on my keyboard instead. (a move I should have done first) As everyone was giving me such an odd and amused look, I explained sheepishly, "That's... that's Teneb...rus." Immediately I realized my mistake (and anybody who's seen Tene's comment page lately can attest)

"Tenebrus? Your paladin?" Thoroughly embarrassed at this point, all I can add is "from Achaea" With a sad shake of their heads, they denounce the soundtrack to this game Achaea I always talk about, and told me to find new hobbies.
