EDIT: Music that inspires you, not music during a session.

Whatever game you’re prepping—what’s your discography? Maybe a top few songs? Artists?

I’ve always felt that we tap deep into the literature behind games like old-school Dungeons & Dragons, as well as movies, shows, and artwork; but not as often, music. I consider music as much of my inspirations as any other medium.

Right now I’m prepping a small OD&D campaign that plays fairly straight fantasy until… what’s that, a cursed ring that punts you to another planet?

• Grateful Dead — Not Fade Away
• Rainbow – Stargazer
• Led Zeppelin – Battle of Evermore

How about you?
