I have been playing around with the sound files in Oolite... You using those two as the Oolite intro and docking themes, Geraldine?

[Geraldine]

Icarus as Intro and UNATCO for ambient.I honestly dont know why it suits Oolite. Perhaps it's the hint of 80s synth throughout the tracks that do it?

Perhaps it's the hint of 80s synth throughout the tracks that do it? Could be. Predictably, I use an old Quicksilver Messenger Service instrumental as my Oolite intro - Cobra.I stuck with the old Blue Danube docking music though.

Stumbled on this the other day... kind of procedural ambient sound (if not exactly "music") based on the celestial bodies within a system would be pretty neat...

Stumbled on this the other day...Some kind of procedural ambient sound (if not exactly "music") based on the celestial bodies within a system would be pretty neat...That's amazing! It would be very cool to have procedural ambient music in Pioneer, along with the songs composed by volunteers!

[Geraldine]

The concept of procedural music is quite an old one. I used to use a landscape generation program on the Amiga called Vista Pro 3. It used to generate all sorts of sounds when computing landscapes from seed values. Quite cool back in the day. Glad to see the concept hasn't been forgotten. :girlcrazy:

My "Odyssey" in mucking around with Oolite's music continues..... 

[Cody]

Cool... sometimes classical music does it best! This is rather atmospheric... with an eastern flavour again.

Lowering the tone slightly - Dr Hook!

After a long talk with my drug (music) dealer, I was intrigued about this musician which I didn't knew.Stephan Micus. He is a kind of musical acheologist, who discovers and reconstructs ancient istruments and melodies.  id="EnE2VDQ6ros"> id="gMdldQCJrhM"> id="uD2_isjEzmo">

Found this. Another methinks for the Pioneer & Oolite music folders.

I think you might like this two Klaus Schulze albums, with Lisa Gerrard as guest. Farscape Rheingold don't watch the video... it's embarassing )

[Guest]

Tnx, tichy, are you some kind of a Guardian Angel!?anyway, i don+t see nothing "embarassing"and sorry for something, don+t know for sure. Nah.. I'm a Pot-head Pixie piloting a (visible) flying teapot. :prankster: (search for the prog group Gong ) It's that video with new-ageish fairies and angels that I find emabarassing (and I also think that doesn't fit well with the music of K.S.... but that's a matter of taste). :biggrin:

[Guest]

I'm playing Oolite with Christopher Franke's Babylon 5 soundtrack. Epic! :gaming:

@cody, quicksilver, hmm... ?i know the tune well (cobra).as much as i like rock music, for gaming i prefere something "artificial", it simply makes me unattentive if i hear quicksilver or dead...(i have to listen then to the guitar or piano, or feel that i have to fix me a cock).
