Medieval Music Pack
A downloadable asset pack

Hear the lute, viol, and shawm... recorder, harpsichord and drums... crumhorn, bombarde, fidule too. An ensemble of early sounds, tis true. Prithee, add these to your game, to fit the era in sound and name.

Does this set up music include the smaller Town and village music pack?
Thanks for asking! No, the Town and Village pack is a wholly separate set of tracks, and is not as specific with instrumentation as the Medieval one, which focuses on period instruments. The Town and Village pack has a lot of guitar in it, which still carries the feel of an older era, but the Medieval pack uses lute, psaltery, zither... I think I had zither in there. Medieval instruments.
Though your question reminds me that some of my older packs like this one don't have a full playlist of all the tracks on SoundCloud. I should really fix that, and will at some point in the hopefully not too distant future.
These tracks are great. I got these in a Humble Bundle a while back: finally got around to using some of them. (https://xedindustries.itch.io/mimis-mealtime-mischief)
That was a fun little game! I enjoyed how the music choice at the end made the mimics seem so cultured as they sat around a table full of grey goblin. Great work!
Thanks so much for playing! I have several of your music packs from a handful of bundles and they are all really, really fantastic.
Hi I got your music pack from Humble bundle. I was wondering why most of your tracks are not loop-able? Is it possible for you to make them looping?
Hi! Thanks for picking up the Humble Bundle and finding me here! Have you checked out the .ogg versions of the tracks? Those are set up for seamless looping, with the exception of the 'themes' which are meant to be standalone compositions. Due to requirements of previous versions of RPG Maker (which is the primary market for my stuff, though it works in any engine) my packs also included either .mp3 or .m4a versions of the tracks. Those formats are not capable of seamless looping, so the tracks play out to an end. If you want seamless loops, please use the .ogg versions of the tracks!
RPG maker is small community. I suggest you target bigger communities like unity or etc. Make the tracks in general not engine specific. The bundle should have been named RPG maker asset bundle. Most of the assets were specific to RPG maker which I never used(Reason no support for 3rd party plugins and most plugins for it made by a small number of people).
Anyways amazing music. I hope you get what I am saying. Better for you. More buyers that way.
I do agree with you that it's great to support other engines! In fact, our Humble Bundle came with a game engine: 001 Game Creator, so it was definitely not RPG Maker specific. None of the assets from me or the other participating creators are exclusive to RPG Maker, they can be used in any game engine. This is particularly so for the music... they're just music files, and work in anything that supports .ogg and .m4a files. I have a friend who is making a pseudo-2D RPG in Unity that is using assets from that Humble Bundle (and others).
My primary market has been RPG Maker users for the last six years, and they generate the vast majority of my sales (mostly as official DLC for the engine on Steam). I've had listings on the Unity store before, and in general it wasn't a big driver of sales. That said, none of the material I produce is restricted to use in RPG Maker (or Visual Novel Maker). Some of my graphics packs are formatted to the specs of those engines, because they drive most of my sales, but the art can be used in other engines too. And in some of the packs I've included high res source files for even more flexibility. And again, with music, it's universal.
