Derek and Brandon
Derek & Brandon Fiechter Thank you soooo much! I bough all of your songs and I love listening to them :) My favourite song is the 'Mines of Moria'… it's awesome!
One of the reasons I like this channel is that I go into the comments and they're flooded with positivity and people helping each other or inspiring each other, professionals giving advice, beginners sharing things they've found. And on top of all that, beautiful music. This is where I go for advice, inspiration, or just a place to harbor and recharge when I'm having a bad day. Thank you all for this virtual lotus pool. Derek and Brandon just gained a loyal subscriber, and if anyone is having a bad day, I'll point them to here. Thank you all.
"Since they were to come in the days of the power of Melkor, Aulë made the dwarves strong to endure. Therefore they are stone-hard, stubborn, fast in friendship and in enmity, and they suffer toil and hunger and hurt of body more hardily than all other speaking peoples; and they live long, far beyond the span of Men, yet not forever." ― The Silmarillion, "Of Aulë and Yavanna"
+Fergusius "And but for them Glaurung and his brood would have withered all that was left of the Noldor. But the Naugrim (Dwarves) made a circle about him when he assailed them, and even his mighty armour was not full proof against the blows of their great axes"..."Azaghâl drove a knife into his belly, and so wounded him that he fled the field, and the beasts of Angband in dismay followed after him. Then the Dwarves raised up the body of Azaghâl and bore it away; and with slow steps they walked behind singing a dirge in deep voices, as it were a funeral pomp in their country, and gave no heed more to their foes; and none dared to stay them." Quenta Silmarillion, Of The Fifth Battle: Nirnaeth Arnoediad A bit long but so loved this part of the book.
Far over the misty mountains cold To dungeons deep and caverns old We must away ere break of day To seek the pale enchanted gold. The dwarves of yore made mighty spells, While hammers fell like ringing bells In places deep, where dark things sleep, In hollow halls beneath the fells. For ancient king and elvish lord There many a gleaming golden hoard They shaped and wrought, and light they caught To hide in gems on hilt of sword. On silver necklaces they strung The flowering stars, on crowns they hung The dragon-fire, in twisted wire They meshed the light of moon and sun. Far over the misty mountains cold To dungeons deep and caverns old We must away, ere break of day, To claim our long-forgotten gold. Goblets they carved there for themselves And harps of gold; where no man delves There lay they long, and many a song Was sung unheard by men or elves. The pines were roaring on the height, The wind was moaning in the night. The fire was red, it flaming spread; The trees like torches blazed with light. The bells were ringing in the dale And men looked up with faces pale; The dragon's ire more fierce than fire Laid low their towers and houses frail. The mountain smoked beneath the moon; The dwarves, they heard the tramp of doom. They fled their hall to dying fall Beneath his feet, beneath the moon. Far over the misty mountains grim To dungeons deep and caverns dim We must away, ere break of day, To win our harps and gold from him!”

Finally managing to finish writing a fantasy book after a long hiatus and I swear, listening to these songs on repeat makes it ten times better! Awesome music!
We must reclaim the lost holds of the Karaz Ankor from the wretched Thagi, the foul Urks, and most importantly, retake the Silver Pinnacle from the Uzular! Khazuk!
This is lovely music to listen to while writing a book involving Dwarves and Orcs. It drowns out other sound, while also helping to set a theme in my mental image.
I've started listening to this whenever I play Dwarf Fortress and I'm sure my fortresses are becoming more imposing, my mines deeper, and my Dwarfs stouter.
Moustafa Rahmooni Dwarf Fortress is a game where you control a bunch of dwarves and try to build a fortress with them. It's not easy to get into but very much worth it! Here's the website (It's a free game) www.bay12games.com/dwarves/
i'm a swordsmith in oregon and i now am going to listen to this to help with the monotonous banging of my hammer... now i can listen to the peoples music that got me into smithing!
+Joelok314626 +Derek & Brandon Fiechter Helps me a lot with my concentration and pace. Great use for it, and keep up the ggod work! P.S. Could I get sheet music of a few of these songs for my 8th grade band? These tunes would be a lot of fun.
RetroThousand Yes, thanks! We don't have the sheet music for any of our dwarf music yet. It's not necessarily hard to compose sheet music, but it does take some time. :) -- Derek
RetroThousand I'm not sure. I guess I never said we were going to do it. :) We'll see what happens. I'm not sure exactly how to turn dwarf music into sheet music. -- Derek
Your music has gotten me through difficult papers, midterms, finals, and a cornucopia of other work requiring that special blend of focus, motivation, and creativity. Thanks for posting such fantastic music where fans like us can enjoy it free!
Had this playing in the background while playing Dwarf Fortress. I was still in rage mode within ten minutes and a cascade was well on its way, but it was still ten minutes of catchy music while one dorf killed the others.
"‘Hold back your fire and let us pass. We have taken the Slayer’s Oath and would pit our axes against those beasts. If we come back, have all your ale ready. If, instead, it is our time to take the Path of Grimnir, then may our doom be a mighty one. If we do not return, remember us to our clans and kings." -Rekthor Redaxe, Giant Slayer, who led a band of Slayers against the Troll horde of Og the Mighty. None returned
I just subscribed to this channel. I listened to your 1 hour medieval music while doing some work on the computer and it made everything go so much faster for me. I'm a few minutes into this video and have decided I want to listen to all of your music while I work. Thanks for posting this. You guys are great.
Listened to the whole of it before reading the comments to find out where these songs came from. And there I was WTF, these are yours?! For this world's sake, never let that talent go to waste.
So I was messing around on my piano, and I came across the following notes: C Eb D C B C D G(low). For lack of better explanation, the rhythm for the notes are: C: Dotted eighth note, Eb: Sixteenth note, D: Eight note, C: eight note, B: eight note, C: eight note, G(low): eight note. I'm not sure if I randomly composed this or it's an existing tune already. :P If anybody has a piano or something, mind playing it and see if it sounds familiar. xD The first word that came to my mind when I came up with the tune was "dwarven." :P
Lo que faltaba, os faltaba añadir la gran joya de la corona y ya la habéis añadido. Mis mas sinceras gratificaciones por haber conseguido esta hora de fantástica y maravillosa música, la cual es mi favorita de todas las otras maravillas que componéis. Gracias, y espero que sigáis así.
Jorge Granados Thank you for saying that, Jorge! I'm so glad you enjoy our dwarf music. There should be a few more dwarf songs coming out in the next month or so. :) - Brandon -
Amazing music. Creative talent. Someday soon you two will be famous soundtrack writers for Hollywood epics and we can say we knew you when you were on RUclips.
I HAVE to add this album to my Dwarf Fortress Soundsense. Practically every track here would fit beautifully with the ASCII dwarves hewing a home into the mountain and defending it from goblins with steel they harvested with their own picks and forged with their furnaces. (Or using various dwarven traps to take care of the goblins.) (For those that don't know, Soundsense is a mod that replaces Dwarf Fortress's only sound- a single guitar track looped continuously- with various other tracks that change with the seasons, and even a full-fledge suite of sound effects.)
Derek & Brandon Fiechter k. It is time to enter the mine. We shall not whine, but shine. We will do this all together. Together forever. In the mine, Gold is the best, and beer is when we rest. Victory is not ensured, but we are strong from what we endured. come sing along, and hear the bell cong. Tis be our tale of the dwarfs...(sorry for the long wait, I forgot
you make great music man i kwon poeple who make dwarven music it dos more sound like crusader music but this, this is dwarven music great work, you earn my subscribe
I've long been playing the ROTDG and BOTET mods for Medieval II and I love playing as the Dawi and have pulled my hair out trying to find the music for them and now at last I have! Kudos for uploading this - I adore particularly Misty Mountains and Dwarfen Prince - I have hummed/whistled those tunes for years and never knew of its origin!
Dwarves and Romans had similar musical tastes, I suppose. Very good playlist. With this music, sitting on the toilet can feel like sitting on a king's throne.
This is truly beautiful! :oD It sounds just like in a movie. You and your brother has alot of talent. This is so epic and amazing. :o) I can see the dwarves in a battle, or working in a mine. I wish I had skills like yours. 10/10 stars.
gisgalion Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed this dwarf compilation. Thanks for taking the time to comment ... I hope you have a great week. :) - Brandon -
I never thought someone would have actually put this music out for people to buy without it being in a game or on a soundtrck. I would actually turn on my game and just listen to the music for hours. nice to know I dont have to do it now.
I'm really annoyed that the Dwarves are really underrated (movie wise) even in The Hobbit movies... even though I enjoyed it but didn't give the impact I was looking for ... Dain arrival to the battle field should have been better than what was made ...anyway ...a mighty race!
+Moustafa Rahmooni man, in the book, Thorin and his friend charge into battle at Erebor, wearing golds armours, but in the movie they took it off before :'( i was so sad ! that was supposed to be the most epic moment in the trilogy !!
+Gautier Lejeune ...there's countless points that we both can refer to...but you know, even though as a book fan myself I still think that Peter Jackson has done a marvellous job in brining some of these master pieces to the big screen ...I suppose we can't expect everything to be as what we'd have wanted!
Moustafa Rahmooni ofc, the movies were amazing, but when i first read the movie, i was like OMG this scene will be soooooooo epic !! I just got a bit disapointed, but maybe my expectations were too high ^^

I enjoy playing as Dwarves in MMORPGs..Alot..
Dwarves are honestly underappreciated
Yeah, they are truly sold short.

Play dwarf fortress for a bit. youll see how fucking harsh life really is for a dwarven citizen. i hope you like failure. a lot.

I'm serious. Humans speak two universal languages; emotion and music. You speak flawlessly in the second. Thank you.
The use of anvils and bell sounds is particularly effective in this. Really gives a feel of a great forge deep beneath the earth!

Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of day
To seek the pale enchanted gold.
The dwarves of yore made mighty spells,
While hammers fell like ringing bells
In places deep, where dark things sleep,
In hollow halls beneath the fells.
For ancient king and elvish lord
There many a gleaming golden hoard
They shaped and wrought, and light they caught
To hide in gems on hilt of sword.
On silver necklaces they strung
The flowering stars, on crowns they hung
The dragon-fire, in twisted wire
They meshed the light of moon and sun.
Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere break of day,
To claim our long-forgotten gold.
Goblets they carved there for themselves
And harps of gold; where no man delves
There lay they long, and many a song
Was sung unheard by men or elves.
The pines were roaring on the height,
The wind was moaning in the night.
The fire was red, it flaming spread;
The trees like torches blazed with light.
The bells were ringing in the dale
And men looked up with faces pale;
The dragon's ire more fierce than fire
Laid low their towers and houses frail.
The mountain smoked beneath the moon;
The dwarves, they heard the tramp of doom.
They fled their hall to dying fall
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon.
Far over the misty mountains grim
To dungeons deep and caverns dim
We must away, ere break of day,
To win our harps and gold from him!”

Yes, I'm glad this music can inspire you to write! -- Derek
What's your book? solid chance if you are listening to this, I want to read it.
are you still alive
All I have to say about this is that it fits the dwarves. For Erebor, and long live the king under the mountain!

I usually play as a dwarf in D&D, so this is a nice touch to my campaign. Makes me think of mighty dwarven cities and bustling marketplaces...

Ya can take the king out of the mountain, but ya cannot take the mountain out of teh King!
Somehow I doubt gold is magma-safe. The exterior of the tomb IS lined with a magma-safe material like obsidian or adamantine, aye?
Aye, it sounds beautiful, then. (Somehow I doubt that constructed walls will retain their guranteed magma-safe properties in the future, though...)
It's lodged in there really good- too close to a vein to remove...
This is lovely music to listen to while writing a book involving Dwarves and Orcs. It drowns out other sound, while also helping to set a theme in my mental image.
Yes, that's great to hear! -- Derek
Anyone else listening to this while playing Dwarf Fortress?
@jonah wolf
I'm doing that mate
yup
i came here searching for df gameplays, not disappointed
Well any music is better than the snooze inducing guitar plinking that serves as the default music.
This STILL ONLY COUNTS AS ONE.....totally epic sound track.
Does a chariot with 6 solders also count only as one?
@@macekreislahomes1690 Yes
By Total War logic, yes :D
Dwarf is easily my favourite race to play in a roleplaying game.
Heavy armor, heavy hammer, huge beard, beer and let's roll...
Always my go-to for DND
I've started listening to this whenever I play Dwarf Fortress and I'm sure my fortresses are becoming more imposing, my mines deeper, and my Dwarfs stouter.
AuricomSystems Yes, I'm glad this music can help your dwarven kingdom out! -- Derek

Flint, I came here to tell u that i do really miss u a lot and hope u are having a great time up there in Reorx forge.
Your friend forever, Tas
Lend me your blades, Brothers
And we'll fend of the incursion
Of our adamantite Halls
And make an alloy Infusion
Of the blood of them all!
Also, just wondering, is any of this your own? Or is it just a collection of music from other things?
Yes, all the music is our own. -- Derek
fine poetry bro we upped it
"Dwarven fortress" my fav.
really nice dwarf music .. :)
+rixclipz Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. - Brandon -
I love the clanging of the hammers in the background. Little touches like that really set your music apart.
Yes, thanks! -- Derek

You guys know what you are doing, keep up the good work and I am sure there are tons of people awaiting 10 hour version of this ;)
Mert Cag Thank you! Yes, a 10 hour version would be great. :) - Brandon -
No elves shall enter the fortress, or they shall die a brutal death!
They can enter only if the took something to drink and some good songs.
ToValhalla_HUN Very rarely.
dwarves are also elves themselves though
+Tsumefan2 , no. If You will EVER read silmarilion You will se they aren't.
sorry i am thinking about skyrim
This music makes my writing ventures far more successful, makes me feel good.
you had me on the first note
Freaking awesome! You can practically smell the beards. And for some reason I want to start digging things up. Shiny things.
My friends and I play D&D and my Dwarf Rouge friend would like this!!
I've long been playing the ROTDG and BOTET mods for Medieval II and I love playing as the Dawi and have pulled my hair out trying to find the music for them and now at last I have! Kudos for uploading this - I adore particularly Misty Mountains and Dwarfen Prince - I have hummed/whistled those tunes for years and never knew of its origin!
Thanks for saying that! Yes, it can be frustrating trying to find music at times, but that's great that you found what you were looking for. -- Derek
Dawi, today we will have our VENGENCE!
Mordekaiser, lol.
Poor dwarves getting buggered by the Darkspawn.
One day, we'll rise again.
Now I want to build something thanks to this music.
You guys really know how to put dwarf spirit into this music I love it, ad puts me in the mood to play my dwarves in D&D XD
Ravon Mate I'm glad you enjoyed it! I hope you have a great week. :) - Brandon -
Good music for crafting something
Dwarves and Romans had similar musical tastes, I suppose.
Very good playlist.
With this music, sitting on the toilet can feel like sitting on a king's throne.
This is truly beautiful! :oD
It sounds just like in a movie. You and your brother has alot of talent. This is so epic and amazing. :o) I can see the dwarves in a battle, or working in a mine. I wish I had skills like yours. 10/10 stars.
VampireZombieX Thanks so much for the encouragement! I really appreciate your comment. :) -- Derek
i can imagine the mines too
just beutiful
Amazing selection, a perfect soundtrack for my fantasy readings ... Thanks !
Wonderful playlist :D
I hope you will continue to compose music for a long time, and by the way making me dream :)
Great job :)
gisgalion Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed this dwarf compilation. Thanks for taking the time to comment ... I hope you have a great week. :) - Brandon -
This compilation should be added to the the definition of Epic in English Dictionary.
+JC Stelu Thank you! I really appreciate you saying that. :) - Brandon -

I never thought someone would have actually put this music out for people to buy without it being in a game or on a soundtrck. I would actually turn on my game and just listen to the music for hours. nice to know I dont have to do it now.
Yes, I'm glad you like it! -- Derek
This is amazing, I love it
im keep finding more and more reasons to like this channel, good job guys
Thanks for saying that! -- Derek
I'm really annoyed that the Dwarves are really underrated (movie wise) even in The Hobbit movies... even though I enjoyed it but didn't give the impact I was looking for ... Dain arrival to the battle field should have been better than what was made ...anyway ...a mighty race!
+Moustafa Rahmooni man, in the book, Thorin and his friend charge into battle at Erebor, wearing golds armours, but in the movie they took it off before :'( i was so sad ! that was supposed to be the most epic moment in the trilogy !!
+Gautier Lejeune ...there's countless points that we both can refer to...but you know, even though as a book fan myself I still think that Peter Jackson has done a marvellous job in brining some of these master pieces to the big screen ...I suppose we can't expect everything to be as what we'd have wanted!
Moustafa Rahmooni ofc, the movies were amazing, but when i first read the movie, i was like OMG this scene will be soooooooo epic !! I just got a bit disapointed, but maybe my expectations were too high ^^
Gautier Lejeune I hear you brother :)
Gautier Lejeune read? you don't read movies you wach them
I finally have a good start on my book, Derek & Brandon! I know I always talked about it, but your music is helping!
+Kyle Kipfer Yes, that's great to hear, Kyle. We'd like to read it once you make some progress on it. -- Derek
DUDE its EPIC!!!!
Thanks for saying that! -- Derek
This is very EPIC DWARF MUSIC. I am very happy playing my games as a DWARF with this music!
This makes me want to go mine gold for days and fight wars against orcs.
This is as strong as iron. Great work lads, ye make yer ancestors proud.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.
