(the old midi's, like the Qeynos song and the Kelethin song, etc.) Please don't confuse this with the composer of the new, fancy MP3, orchestral scores that are used in POP, GoD, and LDoN...

Just a piece of additional trivia

I think I've had the music turned off since Day 1. Most RPGs have the same 'style' of fight music, which isn't quite my cup of tea.

I don't think I'll ever turn game music back on unless you can modify what gets played (would much rather listen to something like Battery or Enter Sandman as combat music than what Sony put in)
