Music to listen to whilst playing

So since the first release excludes any audio I thought perhaps we could share any music or ambience that can be used to enhance the immersion whilst playing Kenshi!
I'll share a track that I find really ties in well with the game

Don't be put off by the fact it looks a bit cheesy from the image (It's from Civ 5), I just reckon it goes well with the whole theme and setting, that aura of an expansive desert, far, far away, roaming the rolling dunes in search of food, glory, and power.

Dual monitors ftw

And damn right with the music suggestion
I haven't stopped playing Kenshi once since the minute it was released today!

death Metal during the fighting and jazz during the peaceful. I don't know it just works.

Yeah, I think our best bet is game soundtracks, at least for now.
This bit from The Witcher 2 is perfect for combat:

And if anyone remembers Warcraft III, waaay back in 2002, this is the music that would play during missions in the Barrens. So, perfect for desert adventuring.

I've been listening to the soundtracks from Fallout 1 & 2, and The Witcher while I play. Regardless of whether I'm fighting or not, almost all of the songs are a great ambiance to have in the background of my explorations.

This is called OMFO and it is Russian (or German) disco(sounds extremely middle eastern) . I just thought since the game is in a desert and kinda *futuristic

It is the weirdest thing my brother ever found.
Desert travel music.

I know someone is shaking their head out there, but can anyone beat this randomness

Sounds pretty awesome and experimental!
I started listening to the Kingdom of Heaven soundtrack now, quite nice.

ive been listening to music like that some times too^^
gives really the feeling of beeing a samurai (with honour and tradition may I add)
on a side note: kenshi isnt based in japan (even though similar

)

My current track on loop at the moment as well,it's just priceless for long trips in the wastes.
Edit: Also some tracks worth mentioning are some from the TV series firefly,I don't have access to the tracks right now tho.
