Just The Plucks and Percussion
🕑 Added 2020-04-20 20:10:53 +0000 UTCI admittedly go a bit overboard with my orchestration sometimes. Oddly enough, it seems many of my most popular tracks are the least busy... maybe there's something for me to learn there. With that in mind, I bring you a pared down version of "Streets of Iron and Blood." It retains the general character and structure of the original, but the only melodies and harmonies you hear are those played by my make shift plucky instrument.
I'm sure you know I like to use all sorts of lutes and strange guitars and whatnot in my music. This particular track uses a mixture of three virtual instruments: a Psaltery, a Strumstick, and a Canjo. What culture produces this mysterious triple instrument? Well, obvious, no culture. It's just a pure fabrication I threw together. My goal with Music d20 is not to mimic a hyper-specific time period or nationality, but instead to evoke general moods and settings that are by their very nature fantastical.
Anyway, I think this track (and the original) do a good job of setting the scene for a certain type of dangerous city environment. I hope you agree!
