So it’s been over a year since I began this post, it started out full steam and I was proud of it, but this past year has been a difficult one for me as a musician, but things now seem to be back on track. I’m uploading a second grass biome piece today. Is there anyone who is willing to implement this as a mod?
Tom
welcome back!
i dont currently have any mods in the works… but i am definitely looking forward to hearing your new piece! 
New track “Under Twinkling Stars” is out. Check the first post.
Sounds great 
Fits perfectly for an evening chilling near the campfire. Staring at the red glowing pieces of burned wood. 
I think there is no support (yet) for json music adding.
I took the freedom to set-up the files for you the way I think will work.
Download the mod files: here
extract it in your Stonehearth/mods folder
place your music in the mod_music file. I dont know if anything else that *.ogg will work. I put an example file YourMusicNameHere.ogg as an example in there.
open the manifest
You can open the manifest.json and clockwork.js file with for example sublime text 2 (in the case you dont know)
http://www.sublimetext.com/2
Place in manifest.json under aliases your music (I put an example there already)
"aliases": {
"YourMusicNameHere" : "file(YourMusicNameHere.ogg)"
},
Dont forget to add comma’s when you have more than 1 alias in there!
open clock_widget.js
Place your music in the form of the example I placed. Important is to refer to your modname and the alias in there and not to stonehearth:music:…
You can place them under several places, like dark or ambient too.
Unfortunately when Radiant changes the clock_widget.js file the mod will break.
Have fun and let me know when it does not work!
excellent work @tyrcian… thoroughly enjoyed the track…
was very tranquil, which is to be expected with that title! 
Thanks for the kind comments. On my phone so I’ll write a proper reply soon.
I’ll return to the track over the next few days as I created this piece in one day so I did the quickest mix I could. I’d usually spend more time on making it perfect but that ends up with me spending forever on one track and ultimately putting off release.
It’s the music that counts, perfection will come by itself.
Great work, just implementing this now. I’ll convert the files to .ogg format and see if they work. It would be useful to know where the original tracks are stored so I can take a look at them and check if they have a specific sample rate. It would also be useful for getting the volume of the tracks the same.
I’m also switching the main thread to one playlist rather than YouTube videos, this will allow me to replace audio easier if I ever do edits in the future, plus SoundCloud has better audio encoding and less compression.
The sound files are stored in the stonehearth smod. The paths are stonehearth/data/music/, stonehearth/data/ambient/ and stonehearth/data/sounds/.
Loving the new track @tyrcian, well done!
You are more than welcome to import your music as .wav if you like, but I have compressed music to .ogg to save space. I will be compressing all SFX to .ogg as well (should have done that from the start). As far as sample rate, I have always bounced out SFX at 44k / 16bit, and music at 48k/ 24bit.
Keep up the good work sir!

Been thinking about the glacial biome.
Take a listen.

Here’s a little update on the latest track, tried to get a bit of awe in there, I guess you could say I’ve been channeling a bit of Skyrim.
@tyrcian Super epic track!! I loved it 
agreed! loved how … well, oppressive it felt…
can i just say i love your “Village in the Mountain” track.
I really like the sound of all of them 
What software do you use to create the music?
Thanks for the comments guys, really appreciate that you like the music.
I use Cubase with a variety of sampled instruments.
Thanks, I’ll have to look into that =]
Send me an email if you have any particular questions
P.S. I’ve mastered “Under Twinkling Stars”
Slight changes in melody but mostly just a bit of EQ and levels
I do have a couple questions now that you mention it.
Which version of Cubase do you use? Why did you choose Cubase?
By “sampled instruments” do you mean like VSTi or SF? Or do you mean recording someone playing the part.
Did you create the samples or did they come with Cubase/Did you find them on the internet?
And lastly, I’ve messed with garageband and FLStudio, is Cubase similar? or why would i choose Cubase over those other options(specifially FL Studio, which I own).
Sorry for the barrage of questions >.<; lol
