The Frontier - A map and music collab
Added 2021-02-21 12:42:38 +0000 UTC"We call this place civilised, but it ain't," the man tells you as he spits on the sandy ground. "You board that there train, you'll find yourself in a land where no law can rule. Where banditry is the worst of your troubles. The frontier ain't a place for soft folk from the city. You go there, you better be prepared to kill."
Hi folks!
Today's track is the second in a trio of collaborations with Tom Cartos, a brilliant map maker and fellow Patreon creator. We will be releasing three music / map combos this month following a set theme: The Frontier
This track is a suspense themed track full of moments of tension and mystery. Rustic instruments combine together into a dark soundscape that shifts between eerie themes. Plucked lutes and guitars hint at civilisation whilst troubling drones show the darker side of the Frontier.
This track works great with Tom's map, but would also work well in most scary or suspenseful situations. The party may be exploring a dungeon, travelling across a wasteland, or sneaking through a bandit camp.
