I'm looking for some good battle or boss music to use for my RPG. I have found some music right now... but it sucks. Well in particular I'm looking for boss music as the battle music I did managed to find is quite good, but even so, if there's something better I'll use it.
For those who haven't heard me talk about my RPG in the chat, (Or payed any attention to my signature, lol) it is a Dungeon Keeper RPG. You can play as Creatures and Heroes so that means I need two sets of songs, a darker and I guess eviler theme and a more heroic theme too.
I'm also taking a bit of the Chrono Trigger idea too, as it had a second Boss Music for harder bosses. (Or "Super Bosses" :P) So I can except the more awesome music for that reason. :P
I have absolutely no Victory music either, so it would be nice if someone could help me there. So far I'm using the RPG defaults, which while it isn't bad, it sounds downright horrible in a Dungeon Keeper game...
The only place I know of right off the bat is the Mod Archive... But you probably want more orchestra-sounding music, so you'd have to look harder, and I'm not sure what kind of file types you can use in your game, so you'd probably have to convert the files. I don't know of any other places, save for VGMusic, but I don't think that's what you're looking for.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm of no help at all! :P

I have no problem getting the music, trust me on that. (And not those crappy downloads either)
But more so I just need to find the right music to begin with. I've done so many searches on youtube but I'm kinda limited as I don't play too many games I guess. I kinda stopped with the searches after I accidentally got trapped in a field of Naruto music... it was horrible... dear god help me! D;
Huh?? What?! There are some awesome things on the Mod Archive!
Unless you were talking about VGMusic, in which case I have to agree on much of it. But you were kinda vague.
Well in my experiance when I download the music, it is kinda low quality or was recorded off the game or whatever which sounds kinda bad. If I wanted that, I'd record the music myself.
Anyway, I guess I didn't realize originally that you were asking for specific music, or I wouldn't have brought it up. I don't browse for vg-oriented tracks often, and when I do it's usually chiptune stuff, so I can't think of anything good for this... Nor can I really recommend any good artists.
EDIT: Technically, I guess some tracks on the site may not be for free usage, but there should be license info for every track.
Used for very important battles. La Pucelle is a tactical RPG by the way. This is one of my favorite videogame pieces ever. It still gets me fired up when I hear it. So awesome..
lol. well if you are indeed looking for original stuff you can take and use with permission then I can't help you, but if its just a personal project for your own amusement then I hope you enjoyed what I selected.
