What music do you have in the background of your front end?
Ginsu Victim:
I've not found a background tune I'm happy with yet.
I went from ahofle's Arcade Ambience tracks to 80's hits (GTA: Vice City sndtrk).
I've tried different game music, but haven't been satisfied with anything.
What are some of you using?
Ummon:
Steve Roach, electro-ambient. Sometimes I just sit an listen more than I play games.
Ginsu Victim:
I'm considering putting Nine Inch Nails "Ghosts - I-IV" on there. 38 tracks, all instrumental. Perhaps a tad bit too dark for an arcade cabinet, though.
Right now, I've mixed some >:D Slayer >:D into the 80's hits. Shakes things up.
TheShanMan:
Ambience for me. I've also been writing an app to randomly pick an Ambience file to play on a second sound card so I can pump it through external speakers and auto-pause when the screensaver kicks in or mame is paused (I'll be mounting the speakers on the wall soon along the lines of surround sound speakers - back and to the sides). Watch for an upcoming announcement of this app. :)
Ginsu Victim:
I wouldn't want it to pause when the screen saver kicked in. I usually turn on the cabinet and let it just play music in the Mamewah menu when we're cooking dinner, or just need some background noise.
