Looking for a particular type of music

Dorge · 01-20-2013, 10:46 PM

Hi there. Just registered on this site because I need help finding something in particular. I'm not sure if this is the right site for this, if its not and someone has better suggestions on where to look I'll happily listen

I'm looking for musical pieces from basically anywhere, recorded by an orchestra of sorts. Musical pieces that has a Dwarven feel to it that is, perhaps a heroic or dark tone to it, sound of steel, anvils, sound of the mountain and such, if that makes sense. Doesn't matter if its from a game, movie or series. Although Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit + games connected to it has already been checked out.

Thanks a lot in advance.

It's not orchestral but try this one from Mostly Autumn...

and weirdly, this one from Tom Waits. Definitely has a dwarvish/delvers feel to it, particularly when you listen to the lyrics. Then there's the hammers-bashing type percussion...

Of course for even more dwarvish music from Tom Waits, there's always his version of "Heigh Ho":

Thanks for all the replies : ) The Tom waits songs were kinda cool :P

I'm looking for something along the lines of the dwarven theme from Battle for Middle Earth 2 though

In that style I mean

I can't yet post links I'm afraid =/

Maybe something like: Jason Hayes, Ironforge (City Theme)

or War (Intro Cue)?

Yes you can, just not ones that advertise your own music/site etc.
Click the second-last icon at the top right (the last one is Show/Hide) and get your YouTube video, copy everything AFTER the v= (so youtube.com/watch?v= is all left where it is, just copy everything after that), insert it between the tags and your YT video should show up.

This one might be obvious.
