In Dwarf tongues, they called it 'Koganusan', but an accurate translation to more common tongues would be 'Boatmurdered'. In the final hours, the only two survivors of that accursed place met, and parted. One would become disgraced, the other a living nightmare. Those who travel to that hellish place only find death, whether by the choking rains of ash, by the trampling hooves of an elephant, or, those who are truly cursed, by uncovering Boatmurdered's last secret. Those who enter Boatmurdered never leave.

This was amazing, I would even go so far to say it is on par with the Divinity 2 soundtrack. You really captured the emotion of boatmurdered, I am in awe of the skill in which you have shown today sir, bravo.
@guitarismysword1 nah, as epic as this music is, DF is beyond epic, it needs a full orchestra (at the minimum), complete with badass battlemusic. trying to find fitting music to DF is like trying to decide who would win in a battle between the Elven king of the Dwarves, Cacame Awemedinade and Chuck Norris. its impossible. PS, search for the Forum Thread in the Bay 12 forums for Cacame (Topic: Dwarven king is an...) for those of you who don't know the story of Cacame, Elven King of the Dwarves.
I find It really funny that I managed to have an elf king shortly After Reading about Cacame. Of course, not even half the badassery. He was an ex-bard turned Potter. His civilization declared War Upon us shortly After His ascend to Power.
@NoiseCreations Wow, that's awesome man, thanks. Would you mind if I went to my orchestra teacher and tried to turn this into a chamber music/small band/full orchestra piece?
I usually don't use character themesongs in WoW, but I will HAVE to link this in the profile of my walking Dwarf Fortress/Boatmurdered reference dwarf.

The most glorious tale about mismanagement I've ever read.
Ahh, Boatmurdered...a storied fortress filled with back-and-forth Elephant wars, ruled by mad men and perished in flames...such an epic tale.
I would really like to see the world file of Boatmurdered...
I wonder if that exists anymore
Boatmuredered was before z-levels were added, were world files even around back then?
@@benmckee1122 it was a sequential game dipshit, how do you think they passed around the game world on the forum?

All Dwarfsmanship is of the highest quality.
Dwarfsmanship?
Lepidolite Mica I think he meant craftdwarfship.
***** Yeah, that's what I was referring to.
No I am referring to a Man that crafts dwarfs.
***** Well, no, dwarfsmanship would be the work of a man that "dwarfs".
It was inevitable.
This epic got me into dwarf fortress, and the game kept me.
I love that you have two comments here, six years apart. It’s wonderful to think you just come back and listen every now and again.

Boatmurdered is the best known epic Co-Op Fort map in Dwarf Fortress. You would need to read the story to really understand

"Boatmurdered - Hymn of the Damned."

It's an epic to this day, as I only just discovered it by listening to Dr Professsor Robot's reading of the tale.
I thought about visiting once, but a cousin of mine who works with elephants advised against it for some reason, but I'm not one to turn down free advice
And then everyone died. The end.
All burn...
May their tortured souls rest in piece.
@ParakotoJenkins "Doesn't really care about anything anymore"

In the end, the fortress burned and was abandoned.
im listening to this while playing df
This song is beautiful.
A mega beast first summer
This song is simply amazing.
That's why it fits, because Boatmurdered was too short as well.
farewell sweet dwarves of boatmurdered, may your tortured spirits rest easy

Artist's name is majicxiii, search for him on DeviantArt. name of the image is "The Fall of Koganusan".
df needs more music, the main theme is awesome. but some music like this and a directory where we can add more tracks would be epic.
A chilling and haunting requiem.
@IzackN Deadwood is my favorite TV show :D

that's when the elephants come right? the song starts getting darker

Dramatic, but at the same time disturbing.
Perfect.
I have been listening to this everyday for a while now while I play my current DF fort.
@BerserkArcher I did my best to convert from what I have into sheet music, link in the description
@anonymousppl I will add soundcloud mp3 links to all my videos
@thing2liv There is a utility, called soundsence Find it at magmawiki at the Utilities page/ Didn't check it myself though, just hope it works smooth.
If only Asax was there maybe such a horror could have been halted....
no one ,body or thing could break the fate of the horror that is boatmurdered
David Maroney
I know right
Masterjails? Best for him never having to step (or fly by) that cursed Place.
@trainzack Now added a mediafire link!
I wish I could get some sheet music for this...
Don't forget the lovely elephant neighbors!
I usually don't use character themesongs in WoW, but I will HAVE to link this in the profile of my walking Dwarf Fortress/Boatmurdered reference dwarf.
Lovely piece of music here. :D

Hope you like miasma!
the soundcloud download has reached its limit!
@bp92009 Dwarf Fortress just needs a lone guitar strumming.

can I replace the DF music with this?
Its pretty good, although it seems very minimal and artificial.
