Icewind Dale 1 & 2 | Beautiful, Calm and Relaxing Music

[@9Saman9]

18 years ago and some titles made me shed tears out of nostalgia... The music just fit so perfect on some areas... Damn

[@StarmonkeyProjects]

My teenage years right here! Soule's score perfectly captured the beauty, wonder, and horror of Icewind Dale. I still get chills 20+ years later.

[@cardoman3986]

Soule never fails to produce absolute wonder and magic to every game he composes for. It's truly a loss that he will not be scoring TE6

[@Nekrist._.]

16:16 I can't describe how deeply I feel this music

[@juhalanz]

thank you for this!

[@iAdas]

The best period of composing music by Jeremy soul and all game industry 😊

[@raunopakarinen4691]

Lovely music... ❤ Soule speaks to my soul! ☺️👍

[@Skumtomten1]

Skeleton of a Town is the most beautiful piece of music I have ever heard, not just from video games but anywhere.

[@Loficode-cafe]

Indeed!

[@Nikelaos_Khristianos]

It actually makes me cry every time I hear it

[@Nikelaos_Khristianos]

Although I LOVE Icewind Dale and prefer it to Icewind Dale 2, ‘Skeleton of a Town’ is one of the most beautiful pieces of fantasy music ever produced and I genuinely think Inon Zur actually outdid Jeremy Soule on that one piece of music alone… that being said, the Icewind Dale soundtracks alone are easily a collection of the greatest pieces of videogame music ever made. Again, especially ‘Skeleton of a Town’ - it’s music that physically makes me stop in the game world just to listen to it 😮‍💨 Heart of Winter overall just kicks so much arse! Pillars’ White March expansion was quite a sweet nod to it 😊

I love the Lonleywood music. You do really feel that after the epic battle of IWD, you've arrived at the top of the world.

[@DrzBa]

This was an awesome set of games

[@benitokiri]

Can't remember playing the games but I have read the Drizzt books so many times, this brings back good feels!

[@TheParappa]

Love the music and the artworks.

[@It_Just_Works_38]

The music sounds a lot like Morrowind & Skyrim ! Great work from Jeremy Soule and Inon Zur

[@Nikelaos_Khristianos]

Predates both of them - this is what fantasy games were like before Elder Scrolls exploded

[@CzerwonyRymcer]

love it

[@nefariousnilbog]

These games live in the shadow of the orginal Baldurs Gate entries but they're both very fun and engaging in their own way. The setting is great too.

[@DoctorKarver]

Amazing compilation and another triumph for this channel! Keep these videos coming with other CRPG franchises as well and with that I would request a Planescape: Torment compilation for the list

[@rennschnecke1]

@thedoctor6851 Thank you. I have Planescape on my list for quite a while already. I will also come to this soundtrack :-)

[@deserk]

Jeremy Soule made some excellent fantasy music for the games Dungeon Siege I & II. Any chance you could make an ambient music vid for those?

[@rennschnecke1]

Yes, I can do that. Good point, I enjoyed playing Dungeon Siege :-)

[@Skumtomten1]

Jeremy Soule, the Mozart of video game soundtracks. Inon Zur is not far behind imo.

[@ronanmurray503]

Where did you get the art for the different tracks?

[@rennschnecke1]

@ronanmurray503 I would have to double check, but most of them (if not all) come from the games themselves, especially the load screens and chapter introductions

[@commandoslayer]

What is Icewind? Does it have anything to do anything with Skyrim?

[@rennschnecke1]

It is an RPG based on Dungeons and Dragons and was developed by the same studio that developed the Baldur´s Gate games. It is a different style, compared with Sykrim, just the composer for the music is the same. The world is not so open and the story quite linear. It features a very nice winter setting and good combat system.

[@Amonny]

Uh, it is a wonderful dungeon crawler, made by the best (now defunct) game studio: Black Isle.

[@ikersainzdelamaza2358]

You made it!! Thanks a lot!! 😍

[@rennschnecke1]

@ikersainzdelamaza2358 As requested :-) Just the ambience could be added, I will see if I get a good idea and can make a second version

[@ikersainzdelamaza2358]

Please and if it possible, extend to 1 or 2 hour. I enjoy sleep with your mixes 🙂

[@rennschnecke1]

@ikersainzdelamaza2358 Oh, really? I will consider this. ;-)
