I noticed Razorwing had said some thing about a "Get World Space" script command, or something of that nature, and that it could be used to make specific music play in specific world spaces. Some of our soundtrack might not necessarily sound right in some areas, especially other province mods. Why not use the "Get World Space" command to make our music only play in Skyrim. That way it will sound more unique, and you'll be able to look forward to a break from the "same old" while playing our mod.

I think that would be very sweet! Then we?d be able to compose more specific music to specific occations/places, instead of doing a bunch of compromised music that is to fit everywhere.

I for one would very much like to compose under those regulations. I just have one question, will the player still be able to change music?
No matter how good the music is it?ll get repetetive after a while, maybe then the music script can be desabled via the console and the game playes the music from the normal folders where the player puts his desired music?

In any case, I think we should decide which way to go quite soon since it might alter the direction we go with our compositions...

I see two ways this can be done:
A) Make a unique piece that only plays in one region, and that is the only piece that plays in the region.
B) Make a folder titled Skyrim Music, it functions just like exploration music for Cyrodiil, but we script the Skyrim worldspace to reference that folder rather than the default explore folder.

I think your idea that the script picks from different folders is best. Then we?d have the flexability that the player can choose his music, while not loosing the option of having dedicated pieces for certain places/occations - some of those folders, the "final-boss-of-uber-demonization-and-evilness" for instance, may only contain one track..

I really like the idea of making special music for special occasions, we?d be able to achieve really cool moments of awesomness and heroism :) for the player.

That final boss comment brings back a funny memory, back in Morrowind I had a Breton Spellsword named Jonas, I took the normal music out of the battle folder and replaced it with the Halo 2 themesong, then when I went to fight Dagoth Ur I put a punk rock song called "My Name is Jonas" in the battle folder, I laughed as I smacked the crud out of Dagoth Ur to a song about my character.
