Looking for a "atmospheric" music

[To_Sirius]

Want something cathartic?
Erik Satie is your man


If not that, then this...


Failing those, try this:


This is part 1 of Richard Strauss' Death and Transfiguration AKA "Tod und Verklärung." Strauss even remarked to his daughter-in-law as he lay on his deathbed in 1949: "It's a funny thing Alice, dying is just the way I composed it in Tod und Verklärung."

I'd say Auriel's Ascension would fit the bill.

So sad and remorseful, and yet hopeful as well. Like a fallen kingdom, reflecting on its former glory, yet resigned to such a sad reprise.

Hi, i had a sudden urge to listen music that feels like ... How should i put this.. Let me think.. Something that would play when something big has happened and there is no going back in time .. Something that comforts but still feels cold & out of your reach.

Here you go, it couldn't fit the bill more perfectly. This is the music that will play all over the world during the apocalypse, if there's any justice.

ANY soundtrack from Assassin's Creed 2 (videogame) is freakin' amazing...

I'll see your AC2, and raise you just about anything else Jesper Kyd has ever done.

Touche' good sir... touche'

Damn he's talented...
