lotr soundtrack

[lord ish]

I noticed that the empirewar enjin was reflective of what map was on.
Also, recently it was suggested that we add an LOTR soundtrack to the game (which was denied cuz of how big the resource pack would become)
So how about this: The forums either have a link to play lotr music that corresponds with the current map OR it just automatically plays.

I would be interested in making a soundtrack for the EW maps with some basic sound compiling/editing, although maybe it could be simplified to factions and you could listen to a link if you're on Gondor or a different one if you're on Mordor, etc.

few things to keep in mind
1. it would have to be in a link on forums because putting it in a texture pack would be too big a file size according to tim from fox's post.
2. copyright - if we have it playing youtube videos hopefully from the publisher then we would not be infringing, nor would we if we cite properly I believe, I don't know the exact rules. But we are disobeying EULA so just wanted to mention that.
3. I'm glad you brought up different song for gondor and mordor, but I don't know how that would go as maps can go from 30 minutes to an hour and if gondor only hears gondor theme i feel they might get tired. I believe that if we can combine both gondor and mordor theme for gondor/mordor maps, rohan and isengard theme for rohan maps, and the hobbit has a ton of musical gems.

Yeah that would be awesome tho if you could compile a playlist of youtube vids or if the mods decide to embed the music in the website using it as a player, then yeah that would be cool.
