I loved the Age of Wonders 1 music. Look for the track "In the Company of Elves" on youtube.

[Jos Ballenbak]

red dead redemption has a nice tune

 

[HIT Games]

Most of our team members are Nobuo Uematsu fans including his work in Final Fantasy -series, but certainly there are more composers and bands we enjoy listening in a game, for example:

- Michael Giacchino (Call of Duty)
- Nine Inch Nails (Quake)
- Sonic Mayhem (Quake II)

...not forgetting about Civilization IV's music.

I love hearing orchestral and heavy metal remixes of the Castlevania themes:

Õkami has some good tunes.

Emperor of Eternal Darkness is a menacing theme which some may have to get used to. Menacing music is a high-tier in my personal preference however, so it'd be wierd for me not to pick it out.

The Sun Rises is a fresh final boss-track which depicts hope and victory rather than tensity and evil. It also has a nice feel to it and doesn't stand too much out from your average fighting-music.

I would name others, but these are the two best examples. I think it'd be a good idea to check the soundtrack out, especially since it's very easy to find on youtube.

The best ingame music I've ever had was in Beat Hazard .

Oooh those would sound good in a Civ East Asian mod.

For a Civ mod, I would rather prefer Shinto Priest Mikazuki's Theme, Tamaya's Theme, The Eight Dog Warrior's Theme and lastly Cherry Blossom Storm.
I believe the others fit more into an action-game, rather than a strategy-game like Civilization.
