This is quite a nice low-key soundtrack. None of the tracks are distracting, they just sit super well in the background, providing ambiance. This is definitely a soundtrack I could see playing while running a session, rather than just one to listen to for inspiration. The overall soundscape has a bit of distressed metal, a bit of rocky desolation, a bit of deep rumbling thrumming. There’s an overtone of Middle-eastern flutes, strings, bells and tabla, which gives the whole thing the feel of a Farscape soundtrack.
I’m thinking this would work super well for a Core campaign in civilized space, since a lot of the Core is influenced by the Middle-east, India and such.

Okay, definitely nice music…which got me to watch the ‘movie’…and now I’m statting those carriers as Class 4 vehicles in my noggin.
Tabletop Audio is now available on Roll20.net for teleconference RPGs. But there is no way to feed through their ‘soundboards’ where you can vary the mix of sounds depending in your situation on the map, or to emphasize something.
Sounds like a cool soundtrack! +Pierre Savoie Doesn’t the new broadcast feature on Tabletop audio’s soundpads do just this? You’ll just have to keep it in the browser.
Reply, additional…okay, darn it, now I’m hooked. I think the Homeworld OSTs are now my fave ambient sci-fi gaming playlist. Thanks for sharing, Sean!
