Hello distinguished ladies and gentlemen of Illyriad!

Crazy Sundays here haha!I hope you're all doing well. I would love to share something with all of you. I am a small composer that has been making music for the past decades based on games and fantasy novels. I do it as a hobby and I enjoy undertaking those challenges to improve myself. After returning to this magnificent game my inspiration spiked again and I decided to dedicate myself in composing a soundtrack for it.

So I’m excited to share with you all, Illyriad , a massive orchestral album and hope that it resonates in some way. Please feel free to offer any thoughts or feedback if you’d like. I’m always open to hearing what others think.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to sharing the music with you.

Wow, amazing! This is legit one of the best/most ambitious pieces of Illyriad fan art ever. I hope the GMs see. Well done.

Oh, we have. Crazy Sunday's gave us a sneak peek and we all listened to it in the GM group. Absolutely fantastic work, CS! I cannot think of a better soundtrack for the spirit of the game. We really appreciate you putting this together -- bravo!

Many thanks everyone! I mean Illyriad does have certain themes into it that can be inspiring for music. I'm sad that I couldn't implement every of my tracks for this one , cause I did have some ambience. Would be good for some lore reading. Perhaps I will make a second part later on with them only :)

iirc, at one time the GMs did recordings toward a soundtrack. Like going out to tape the sounds of swordfights at reenactments and such. Not sure what happened with that.

Ah! found the references:

The next one is Shrapnel's Memorial Academy theme. This one is more dreamy and adventurous and one of the hardest to make. Enjoy~
