Only read the part that Bridge quoted (will read the rest...someday) and I just have to say:
Jeremy Soule is a master in his art.
He makes incredible ''adventuring'' music. No other way to describe it. When other composers try do to the same they come off as boring, but his music helps the personal roleplaying, does for me anyway.
His work for the TES series is the only constant greatness TES has had (in my opinion).
Pieces such as this are perfect ''adventuring'' music and indeed helped the player role play his own story.
I'm getting nostalgic just listening to it; being transported to years ago when I first experienced Morrowind.
