I was considering making some tweaks to my Pantheon-themed playlist and it occurred to me I could make a thread for it. :3
What kind of music do you guys enjoy listening to while playing Farwoods? Are there songs you associate with your character, or even have you made playlists of your own? Feel free to share!
Currently I have made two Farwoods-specific playlists, one for my character Harris, and one that represents each member of the Pantheon!

Here is the link to my Dragon Pantheon playlist: Pantheon Tunes (YouTube link)
I have a Google doc of notes for which song relates to each dragon HERE!

And here is my playlist for Harris!
I'll Always Follow You Around - Harris Playlist! (Spotify)
I'd say up to track 21 is the bulk of 'chronological' storytelling, then its mostly instrumentals random stuff I added later for more variety when I put it on shuffle. I don't have a full break down, but many of the songs included relate to specific RP scenes and relationships.
(I may end up making a YouTube version at some point for ease of sharing, but I tend to use an offline version personally)

Other recommendations:
If its not obvious, I'm a pretty big fan of Louie Zong lol. The variety of his instrumentals make for good filler. He even has an EP inspired by Wind in the Willows so sometimes I'll just listen to that a bunch. When he does do songs with lyrics they're usually really goofy and fun, so that's big Harris energy there.
The Crane Wives, are also a band I like a lot, lyrically, instrumentally, and vocally just interesting storytelling and have songs that really hit for more intense emotions.
Vashti Bunyan is like the yearner of all time, really nice for softer, quieter moments. Often sad, but sometimes more whimsical and naturey.
And an honorable mention for this Fantasy Town Music Pack (itch.io link) I happened to get as part of a charity bundle on itch.io. I like it quite a bit, and it does have This is Farwoods Now stamp in my head but admittedly $30 regular price might be a bit steep if you aren't planning on making a game with it imo. If you are they type to get bundles on itch.io though, might double check if any bundles included it.
