Musics for the Atmosphere
Totally subjective, this list recommends you some musics we use for our games. Don't hesitate to discover composers you don't know because they are really good! This list will enlarge with time and we'll sort it then.
Yello
This tremendous group was a precursor of electronic music. They're very talented! The track "Ciel Ouvert" made me create Aventures Arcanes!!!
| Stella | Ciel Ouvert |
| Baby | Rubberband Man, Capri Calling |
Enya
The greatest celtic artist is Enya. She refreshed the traditional celtic music and brought it her sensitivity.
| A Day without Rain | Wild Child, Tempus Vernum, Lazy Days |
| Shepherd Moon | Carribean Blue, Book of Days, Lothlorien |
| The Celts | March of the Celts, Bard Dance |
| The Memory of Trees | The Memory of Trees, Pax Deorum |
| Watermark | Orinocoflow, Cursum Perficio |
Mike Oldfield
It's impossible to forget the great Mike Oldfield. Now discreet, he was very active in the seventies and the eighties. You know his immortal work who evolved slowly to New-Age. Precocious, he started at the age of 16 with the album "Tubular Bells". Yes, you inevitably know it : it's the Orignial Soundtrack of the movie : "The Exorcist"!

Dead Can Dance
This mythic duet created a very strange atmosphere within it's whole works : melancholy and elation are omnipresent, like the echo of a distant and imaginary country. All I can say is that if you read the name "Dead Can Dance" or "Lisa Gerrard" or "Brendan Perry" on an album, rush on it!!! What a pity that this duet broke...
