  • He sat by the fire and gazed out the window onto the frozen street below with its endless stream of tightly wrapped faces as they hurried past one another toward unknown destinations. Snow was falling gently as it always does and although the weather was kinder to the soot-covered city of Frostholm than most years the old man's bones and scars still ached. He didn't mind too much as some of those scars were the reminders of fond memories of a youth, long past, filled with adventure and travel. He smiled a bitter-sweet smile and shuffled his chair a little closer to the flames...

    I create ambiences with original music. My favorite genre is fantasy, but I sometimes venture into sci-fi, horror, history, or plain (but beautiful) natural settings.
    I am heavily inspired by books, as I am a total bookworm, by PC games and DnD which my husband loves and talks about. I love long cross-country hikes, that feel like a huge adventure and you can see it in the number of traveling ambiences I produce 😀
    ***
    You are at the right place if you are looking for ambient music for reading, writing, or work, or background music for DnD.

    For some reason it gives me "dead mmo" vibes, where you walk in a once populated place, but only the structures and memories remain. I love it, thank you.

      @@pamelawilliamsartography MMOs are Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games. The social activities to do with other players is the point. Dead MMOs are when you've played a MMO in the past in once-crowded areas, but then you revisit those areas again now, only to find them empty of the crowds you remember.
      Examples are Seer's Village in RuneScape 3 or any prior expansion capital city in World of Warcraft (Shattrath, Dalaran, Boralus, & a few others).

    Such beautiful music, but as an environmen artist the use of AI art is really disheartening. For those who don't know, AI art s generated via the use of artist's work who haven't given consent for their work to be put into a digital feed and frankensteined. I'm sure there are so many artists out there who would be so happy for you to use their work for your music - please consider reaching out and using real art for future videos.

      I am actually on a long hunt for a website where I could purchase non-exclusive licences for a real art pieces, preferably with a lot of choice for fantasy, scifi, nature settings. Something that would be either subscription based, or pay per piece. If you have any suggestions, I would be very thankful :)
