Server Update: Checking In

Greetings Patrons,

Thanks for bearing with me over the last few days. The server issues have been sorted but there still may be some residual effects. These are most likely due to my use of C...

Server Update #3: Back?

Greetings Patrons,

After so much runaround I'm tentatively (hence the question mark) letting you know that things appear to be working again. Ironically, the one person that never saw the sit...

Server Update: Still Down

Greetings Patrons,

As many of you have noticed tabletopaudio.com is not working. I've been in contact with the hosting provider off and on all day. Apparently they were migrating a bunch of s...

New Ambience: Throne Room

Edit2: It seems I was premature. The webhost told me that they are migrating the server as we speak and everything is going to be a bit sideways for a little while. They wouldn't put an...

New Ambience: Mind Flayer Chamber

Greetings Patrons,

This didn't have anything to do with Mind Flayers when it started. It began as an orchestral tension track, but the longer I worked with it, I kept seeing these floating, t...

New Ambience: Training Grounds

Greetings Patrons,

Here's another of those not-quite-battle tracks. It's definitely action oriented, but it's meant to be a kind of cinematic montage where we observe soldiers traini...

New Ambience: Defiled Temple

Greetings Patrons,

I spent some time underground this week, metaphorically speaking. I was looking over recent tracks and thought we hadn't really seen a proper dungeon type ambience in a whi...

New Ambience: Rainy Village

Greetings Patrons,

I started this track a month ago, with no real idea other than it was going to be a kind of Howard Shore-ish type piece. Something on the lighter side, suitable for lots of...

New Ambience: Lush World

Greetings Patrons,

I don't play video games much, but I managed to get some time on No Man's Sky last weekend and really enjoyed it. I especially liked the way the music added to the...

New Ambience: The Orrery

Greetings Patrons,

I hope this note finds you well. I took quite a long and meandering path trying to discover where this track was going. I almost scrapped it a couple of times. I eventually...

New Ambience: Mech War

Greetings Patrons,

This is a battle track. It's future combat. It's large, mechanized warriors trying to pulverize each other into scrap. Musically however, there's a bit of a push and pull. ...

New Ambience: Icebound Town

Greetings Patrons,

A number of recent requests for some "cold, not particularly friendly, northern villages" got me guessing that one or two of you were planning to run some games in Icewind ...

New Ambience: All Hallows' Eve

Greetings Patrons,

This is my 6th annual Halloween ambience. I just read that again and found it slightly hard to believe.

I listened to some of the classic horror soundtracks and as al...

New Ambience: Interrogation Room

Greetings Patrons,

I watched a few episodes of Netflix's "Criminal: UK" this week. If you haven't seen it, it's a police procedural that takes place almost entirely in an interrogation room. ...

New Ambience: Mushroom Forest

Greetings Patrons,

Something on the peaceful side this week. I was thinking about a kind of psychedelic, Alice in Wonderland type setting and what could be more appropriate than a forest of g...

New Ambience: Terror in the Woods

*EDIT*  The music-only track I originally uploaded was the same as the track on the site. I've since fixed this and the new music-only track is correct. Sorry about that. If you grabbed th...

New Ambience: 60s Computer Lab

Greetings Patrons,

New Ambience: New Orleans Noir

Greetings Patrons,

This ambience evolved a bit from inception to finish. I knew I wanted to do something in New Orleans, something vaguely Cthulhu-ish. I decided it should be set in ...

New Ambience: Mansion: Night

Greetings Patrons,

I started working on this track last week after seeing a clip of an old Scooby-Doo cartoon from the 1960s. That show, as comically formulaic as it was, did a pretty great j...

New SoundPad: Wuxia

New Ambience: Wuxia Tea House
