The music of Atolonen and the Hammerite Imperium

[Ibsen's Ghost]

This is a long story which some of you may know a little about already but I once worked on a project for Thief 2 called 'The Hammerite Imperium'. I wrote the plot, about three quarters of the missions and lots of diary entries and suchlike. The campaign bombed in a big way when our leader's ambitions crippled our plans....that's why I now take a much more practical approach to modding that says, "let's just get the bloody thing completed."

Our main assets, besides my writing and voice acting =), were the artwork of our leader Alexius: http://svitart.n-tek.ca/home.php and the music from our sound lead, Atolonen: http://koti.mbnet.fi/atolonen/main.html . Both of whom went on to professional work in their respective fields.

I always use Atolonen's work at the start of my voice acting vids: http://www.youtube.com/user/IbsensGhostUK but he's often commented that he'd like to polish off his work as it was intended to be heard. I had planned to use some of both this music and some of Alexius' artwork in a small mission for the Dark Brotherhood Chronicles but the guy I was working with has left the modding scene and I would like to make this available here.

This page of AT's website describes the selection perfectly: http://koti.mbnet.fi/atolonen/unguardedreliquary.html . You can also listen to the songs. You should be able to download them as well but at the moment, if you haven't subscribed to QuickTime, you won't be able to do so but it should be no problem requesting them from him by other means.

Most of it will suit dungeons and the like but I would like to use some of it as 'themed' music as suggested for particular faction questlines. I already use these as ambient for my dungeons. Enjoy!
