Just listened to those you have already made. I can just picture fighting a battle with "march of honor" or "pride or pain" in the background, sounds great. And "lost battle" when the battle is over. Hopefully you won't have such silly game music they use in other rts games. Stick to the warmusic! :D
i agree about the battle music; its great.
but i think it would be nice to have some nice medieval theme playing during the game while nothing important is happening.. something like ''bard's tale" is suited for that i think.
:go:

I could not have said it better myself. Music is an essential factor in almost every game, preferably setting you in the right mode of "feeling" your troops marching onwards towards the enemy.
But I am quite sure that the tracks they have at our disposal - will be used in the game. Otherwise, they shall have lowered the Gameplay value if that would be the case.

If anyone has played the original Stronghold, that has some great medieval type and war music in it.

that was so true. did you ever catch yourself just sitting back, watching your little people walking around doing their duties while you listened to the music. :)
The music is very good! Better than Stronhold or something like that...
The music reminds me a bit at The Lord Of The Rings.
I hope they will make much more if this! :)

YES!!! hahaha, that and clickin on all of them to hear what they say. So many wasted hours....lol
Lords of the the realm 2 and Medieval Total War are also examples of good medieval game music.
it might also be cool to have some Medieval texts appear in the music for KOH!

There already is latin singing...
And no other language should be considered, because is there was sweden singing, I'd begin to laugh because I'd think of the band "Eläkeläiset". And german would leave bulgarian players also clueless...
Latin singing is a good idea...

Indeed, Gladiator and Braveheart would not be the same without good music to it...
The music in this game is amazing! This fact alone will make me buy this game, although it also looks awesome (I really like the design of the graphics). The music has that perfect mix of "true" medieval atmosphere combined with the big and strong orchestral movie soundtrack sound you have in great movies like Gladiator, Braveheart and Lord of the Rings.
I really liked some songs in Lords of the Realm II for example, but the music in KoH is the best I've ever heard in this genre.
Where the h*ll did this game - and the composer!! - pop up from?!?!
I'm so excited.
I think the music is fantastic, it makes me feel like im in that time period.
I hope you use music like that in the game..

The music pieces are from the game....
Sounds like the great wizard of music: Glorian could be in for a grammy award :D - the guy really knows his "thing" - i really hope we'll be able hear some more samples :)
