View Full Version : Sneaky music for Siege maps

Some girl last night (lotrfan I think) was pointing out how bad the choices are for music in custom maps.

I thought I'd share a few tracks from the game Frozen Synapse. These are spookey and sneaky, and remind me of playing Deus Ex (sneaking around in corridors combating global conspiracies). I think they would be suitable for Siege.

Worth noting that these have a much slower buildup/introduction that most UT tracks.

Anyway I'm not suggesting you rip these tracks, as that would be a violation of copyright of hard-working indie devs. (You can pick the game and music up super cheap from a Humble Bundle.)

But they are a nice listen, and may give some ideas about nice siege music.

But really I recommend to mappers sticking with a default UT track. There are lots of great ones, and half of players don't listen to the in-game music anyway. Nobody wants to download your favourite pop song! (Although you can post it on forums if you really wanna share.)

BTW anyone got rick rolled in a UT map yet?

For electro-lovers some dubstep/newsynth:

Oh well I should come clean. Actually LOTR only said "I wonder why they picked this music". What was said above is really my opinion. Who let the Dawgz out?

FU -_- i was just saying if a map had some good custom music it would be better imo. Who dosent agree that they can play better if they are listening to some dope ass music? Also i didnt like the song because it is also on a few annoying overplayed RX maps.

I play with my UT music off and play music off my PC! (And of course I play music out of my UT music files as well!) :)

most players have music muted and listen to their own playlist, i wouldnt bother using custom music in a map, just something else people need to download and possibly not appreciate anyway blank.umx!
