Does anyone have any suggestions for background music and/or sound effects (a link or two would be nice).  I think I do want some background music but I don't like using my music (punk mainly) as bgm as it doesn't give that proffessional sound.  Looking for possibly some good ambience music.

I have played around with quite a few different combinations of personal playlist and ambient sounds.  The one I like the most is Movie sound tracks from epic films, for instance Glory or Gladiator work well.  But my personal favorite right now is Fight Club by the Dust Brothers.  Everyone that hears that playing always thinks its pretty cool whether or not they have seen the movie, but its better if you have.

I have that and it's really the only thing playing.  I also have Enigmah, funny since I use to have an enigmah chip...okay maybe not funny d=.  I'm also using movie soundtracks like Kill Bill and The Matrix.  I'm just looking for something that sounds really good.  I would also like to find some sound effects since I dislike the MSDash ones >_<

Danny Elfman music makes me want to go kill myself d=  If only I could find my Bram Stokers Dracula and Edward Scissorhands score.... \=  

I'm basically looking for just music w/ little to no speaking/singing.  Too bad I can't think of any good instrumentals ~_~

Try out OcRemix and look for some more instrumental arrangements.  There is some very high quality professional stuff ont hat site, but at the same time there is also some not so high quality stuff.

If you enjoy that,  try out VGMix for some more. smile.gif

I recommend some classic video game music with a new twist. wink.gif
