What's your favourite empire building music? Do you have the game music on or do you listen to somhthing else?

Me? When I'm feling particularly megalomaniacal I like a bit of http://www.sthemez.plus.com/wav/s/starwar3.wav or perhaps some Wagner.

Most of the time though it's something more chilled - Cake, Moby or Leftfield.

There is an exception to every rule. Including this one.

When I play Space Empires (or at least doing something related to it) I listen to the following Groups:

Smashing Pumpkins
Depeche Mode
Tea Party
Treble Charger
Our Lady Peace
Moby

And when I feel like socking it to the AI - I like Prodigy "Smack My B*tch Up" or "Breathe" - Breathe the pressure - same ol' game I'll test ya

When I'm mellow and just playing a game for fun...Tori Amos....When I feel a bit more aggressive or in the need for a change...Queensryche or Rush....But still, no music is better than Joe Satriani's 'Crystal Planet' cd for this game, fits all moods! http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif
