What, if anything, do you like to have playing in the background while you game?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiwuQ6UHMQg is just one of many thinks I use as background music.

I use music from games, as the ambient noises are usually there as well, I use surround sound with speakers under the table.

Well...I don't use music anymore for gaming.

I used to play Magic the Gathering in tournaments and had a red/green/black winnie "Bad Moon" themed deck that I would play the CCR/Fogerty, Bad Moon Arising song as I played cards. It used to drive people up the wall. Not only because playing the song and stopping every time I laid down the Bad Moon enchantment was annoying as hell. The fact that they were getting demolished by a very nasty and fast theme deck pissed people completely off.

Bad Moon Lyrics:
I see a bad moon arisin'
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today

Don't go around tonight
Well, it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

I hear hurricanes ablowin'
I know the end is comin' soon
I fear rivers overflowin'
I hear the voice of rage and ruin

Don't go around tonight
Well, it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Alright

Hope you got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we're in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye

Well, don't go around tonight
Well, it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

Don't go around tonight
Well, it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

Video game battle and mid music are pretty good. Some movie soundtracks as well. When I hear something I steal it if I like it. Kind of random, I know, but I don't just use it for fantasy.

One day for PF could involve Symphony of the Night, next game of rifts I use Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Depends on what I'm going for.

Enya, Loreena McKennitt, Celtic Woman, the ST from Legend, etc.
