Who all likes using music to set the mood for their campaigns? Whether at a real table or a virtual one, I think a well-chosen soundtrack played at non-distracting volume can add a lot to the ambiance. If you've ever assembled a soundtrack for your game, what's on it? If you haven't, what would it sound like if you did?

I'm getting a Torchbearer game together, and I thought it might be nice to play some music through my phone. Here's the playlist I came up with:

Main theme: Blind Guardian, "The Bard's Song/In the Forest", Somewhere Far Beyond (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUav1R5UaG8) (Probably wouldn't actually play this at the table, but I threw it on there anyway just 'cause.)
