Dreary Day in a Muddy Town
🕑 Added 2020-03-31 20:54:25 +0000 UTCThere's a common trope in RPGs of dingy, wet, slum towns. These often make for good beginnings to adventures, perhaps because these towns are plagued by laundry lists of solvable problems (i.e. quests and sidequests), or perhaps because REAL WORLD medieval villages were pretty muddy, dreary, and downtrodden. A town like this needs some somber, downtempo music with a slight folk flair to evoke the proper mood in these crummy towns.
That's where "Grimdocks" comes in. This is slow and folksy, and while its certainly melancholy, there is a certain awkward danceable rhythm to the tune. This is perfect for your starter towns: shithole villages that have been abused by kings, infested with rats, and hammered with rain for months on end. Still, through the darkness there is hope; some new adventures just arrived, and they're willing to take on whatever the villagers throw at them.
This is (obviously) my last track of the month, and if I'm not mistaken, this was my productive month yet... and you haven't even heard three of the tracks I have waiting in my vault! I'm very excited for what April has in store, and I hope you'll give me some track request suggestions for me to throw in the poll tomorrow.
