Embrace the creative freedom that has become synonymous with Dwarf Fortress, enhanced by its Adventure Mode, and amplified even further by the music! With its enchanting guitars and haunting vocals, the original soundtrack by Dabu, Simon Swerwer, and rcab fits the game perfectly. This atmospheric OST can be now experienced on vinyl – manufactured with our hallmark attention to detail, and topped with a neat bonus track.
The front cover of this album is adorned with original artwork painted by Tomáš Duchek, printed on a gatefold jacket with some special varnishing. This peaceful yet captivating scene of a dwarven campfire evokes a feeling of respite during a perilous journey. On the inside, an intricate picture crafted by Thea Kent awaits you – an impressive panorama which showcases the ASCII roots of the game in a new perspective (special thanks to BlindiRL here!) and with a twist. Long-term fans will be able to decipher the image, find easter eggs, and perhaps even tell the story of this dwarven adventure.
As the composers say: “Working on this album was such a joy. It gave us the chance to dive back into the world of Dwarf Fortress, and we’re so grateful to have the kind of developers and fans who make that possible. This time around, we had fun leaning into a more upbeat, vocal-driven sound and finding ways to capture that big, larger-than-life feeling from a home studio was both a challenge and a blast. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we loved making it!” Now it’s time to turn on your turntables and strike the earth once again.
