I write thematic, royalty-free soundtracks for GMs, filmmakers, and creators. The Lifetime Bundle gives you all my current albums plus all future releases I add to my store for one current lifetime price of $120. No subscriptions, no per-use fees, no guessing whether a track is cleared for your project. Every piece uses motifs that evolve with your narrative, so it’s more than background ambience: it helps tell the story.
Human-made, no AI. Every track is original music I composed note by note — never AI-generated, never anonymous stock. In a market flooded with AI-generated audio, that’s your guarantee it’s genuinely cleared for monetized work, with no training-data or Content-ID surprises.

Music That Tells a Story
I don’t just write tracks — I write musical characters. Themes return, shift, and grow with the narrative, adding weight and emotion to each scene.
Whether you’re running a tabletop RPG, producing a podcast, cutting a film, or designing a video game, this music is created to work with the story, not just sit behind it.

★★★★★
I love this album. I use it all the time. So worth a download.
★★★★★
Fantastic album, full of great tracks perfect for background ambience whether playing a tabletop game, working or just relaxing. Thoroughly recommended.
★★★★★
Thoroughly recommend this album to anyone running any sort of gothic horror or spooky mystery. I find myself in particular using Eerie Forest & Link Street a lot
★★★★★
This album is just perfect: Nostalgic moods, eerie situations or unspeakable evils. Recently, in the Eberron table I run, one of the players failed their third death saving throw. I immediately played Sad Strings, and the mood was both sad and beautiful. A moment none of us will ever forget. Thanks Ivan!
★★★★★
A great horror/dark mystery mood setter. Keep up the great work!
★★★★★
Have used several of these songs as themes for our Kickstarter videos (with Ivan’s permission, of course). Just great tracks to capture people’s attention.
★★★★★
I love all of his work, but this album here in specific I find my self to consistently come back for my rpg games. I can find a music for every occasion to set the mood of the scenes, from the tense and looming danger to the funny and relaxing parts. Is always a pleasure.
★★★★★
This album has been a constant source of inspiration whenever working on my fantasy themed games. I’ll be sure to purchase more aural candy from Ivan Duch in the future.
★★★★★
I’ve been mining this album regularly, and I think it is great resource for some one who wants high quality, cinematic, and loop ready, music for any project they are working on. It appears there are not a lot of license strings attached, besides the requirements in the FAQ, which is a huge plus for any smaller creator, or team. This album has a good variety, from softer ambient tones, like “Fairies” to harder action melodies, like “Surunam’s Fall.” The album is a very good a good value, and will add value to any creative project.
★★★★★
This is just simply awesome work! Thanks for making such great music, and also for sharing with people!
★★★★★
This is one of my favorite albums by Ivan because of the wide range of scenarios these tracks can be used for. Don’t just go by the track names…they’re quite versatile and most are perfect for city/village scenarios. Some are light-hearted, some are a bit more serious, and several have a quirky feel to them reminiscent of the Fable series soundtracks. If you’re looking for some atypical music to enhance an opening or background for your gaming sessions, this album should prove useful. I also find it great to listen to when I’m looking for some creative inspiration.
★★★★★
These tracks have brought great feeling and excitement to my d&d sessions, and my interactions with the artist himself have shown him to be a wonderful person. I highly recommended buying his discography for any mood setting or easy listening. Thanks Ivan!
★★★★★
Professionally made, and my go-to in any D&D session, thank you so much!
★★★★★
I’ve been supporting Ivan on Patreon for a couple years now and his music is consistently excellent for background ambiance, inspirational writing, chilling and spending time outside, or as background music for playing tabletop games. His work is worth every penny I’ve spent!
★★★★★
I rave to anyone that will listen about how hood Ivan is and how great the music catalogue is.
★★★★★
Just over a year ago was when I first became acquainted with Ivan’ music. He had some freebies on his older website and I was in the market for some music for my rpg sessions. After listening to some snippets I was sold – and after using them for some sessions even my dnd play group said they really enjoyed the atmospheric music. Lucky for me he had also just written his Alkazaar’s Appendix piece of music which was the short adventure I was running. It was after these sessions that I decided I wanted to buy some more albums, and so I did – a few random ones, thinking I could always use them for whatever my next adventure or campaign would be. The only thing I thought could still use some improvement was the file and folder system / architecture. I sent Ivan an email saying that perhaps it would be useful to have .wav or .flac files in a separate folder, the looped and SFX files also separated, to give his customers a bit more of an overview, plus a lot of audio software liked foldering this way. To my (slight) surprise I got an email back that very next day with Ivan asking me what a good setup could be. Over the course of the next few weeks we thought of ways to improve the user experience through sheer restructuring of his folders and file setup. I was quite happy and honoured that he let me help him out a bit, and I think currently the the full discography is a veritable treasure trove for music enthusiasts! It’s easy to find music through audio software or just browsing your explorer, the albums and tracks are all numbered and segregated, with a high-res picture for the cover art, and the music? The music speaks for itself. Every album is available at high resolution, with a grand collection of amazing work. If you’re truly looking for a worthwhile collection of atmospheric music, you cannot ignore this discography. I’m terribly happy I was able to contribute a bit, and I’m always looking forward to browsing the tracks to find something that suits my rpg session just perfectly.
★★★★★
Just wonderful. All of the tracks have some unique charm and use, even for more particular niches of moods/setting for ttrpg adventures.
★★★★★
a beautiful listening experience
★★★★★
Never saw a better collection of wonderful fantasy composings than this collection , bravo Ivan !! Ivan is one of the best in this1
★★★★★
Excellent tracks. Ivan’s music is a fine choice for tabletop games.
★★★★★
Awesome album from a very talented artist. I love the music he’s making a especially this albums music tracks give me a great opportunity to add music to my Viking videos on YouTube. I can definitely recommend Ivan Duch and the music he’s creating.
★★★★★
Love this album, tracks are excellent and the sound quality is great. Really cool that Ivan is so engaged with his listener community/Discord as well. Can’t wait for the next album in this series!
★★★★★
Outstanding music. This music has been perfect for setting the mood for my various activities. I can’t recommend this enough.
★★★★★
I listened to this album while reading the Hunger of the Gods series, and it really does an incredible job of setting a tone worthy of a Nordic saga. Would also highly recommend it for anyone running the DnD Rime of the Frostmaiden campaign, as many pieces really go well with creating an atmosphere of tribal mysticism and finding warmth in cold places.
★★★★★
It was tricky finding good music and background sounds for my Alkazaar’s Appendix adventure – until I stumbled upon this gem! Besides some classical music from Artaria this was my go-to album for the whole adventure. Easy to use with loops and sfx included, you can almost feel the sand in your eyes!
★★★★★
Wonderful selection of evocative music that helps bring my imagination to life.
★★★★★
Extremely well done. It’s hard to find creators who possess the amount of originality and creativity that Ivan shows in this collection.
★★★★★
Ivan Duch’s music make my rpg sessions on Foundry very deep thank to the composer understanding of what kind of music a gamemaster need to run games. Thank you Ivan. I’ll continue to listen at your wonderful music while I’m setting the scenes between sessions.
★★★★★
Musica straordinaria, perfetta per trailer cinematografici di genere, film, videogiochi, sessioni di Gdr. Ivan è super disponibile ed è un compositore di talento e di altissimo livello.
★★★★★
Ivan creates high quality music that is ideal for tabletop RPG or VTT. I like his style and I will get more music from him.
★★★★★
This has stepped up my game for both online & in person games without me having to spend hours & days hunting the right background music to suit the mood I want to evoke. Everything is nicely organized so makes for quick access. One of the more useful tools for the gamemaster who cares about their ambience.
★★★★★
Um trabalho incrível, de excelente qualidade e variedade. Me ajuda em diversas situações no RPG de Mesa (VTTRPG), para imergir meus jogadores na narrativa ou mantê-los ambientados enquanto interagem com NPCs ou entre si. Encontrar seu trabalho foi realmente uma sorte imensa!
★★★★★
This was the first album of Ivan’s that I bought and not only did I love it, but I use his music in my YouTube videos and for my role-playing games and even when I’m writing. It is still one of the my favorites! Marie M. Mullany (Just In Time Worlds)
★★★★★
Streets of Baerlon and Escape from Shador Lagoth are still two of my favorite pieces of work from Ivan. Would recommend the entire album for just those two songs alone.
★★★★★
Since most of my games that I host are dark in nature, this is my favorite – thank you so much. I appreciate you letting us get a hold of your talent!
★★★★★
One of my favourite albums. It really helps to create a mysterious, dangerous and sometimes melancholic mood. Three songs also come with an “old” and a “modern” version, which is really cool when your story follows an immortal who lives through different eras.
★★★★★
I’m an author writing a novel called “Secret Diary of Amy Lee.” It’s a vampire novel. I was looking through the internet looking for free music to set the mood. I like to read my work on YouTube. I hadn’t used it yet but planning on it. Learning to use video editing software. The music for the vampires is truly haunting and beautiful. Great work Pen Name Donte-highwater
★★★★★
As a long-time fan of dark and dreary fantasy settings (think Ravenloft, Dark Souls, etc) I tend to throw vampires into the mix. It’s tricky to get them just right – they’re not mindless zombies or ghouls, but sophisticated predators, inviting you over for dinner in their castle as they pour another goblet of …wine? This music does them justice – sophisticated but with a ubiquitous presence of fear and threat. Truly a joy to use this during my rpg sessions!
★★★★★
This music matches perfectly with the victorian/gothic style of our Curse of Strahd campaign. A dinner with a vampire isn’t right without a musical suite that is refined but still makes you uneasy, making you question if you’re next on the menu. All the guys love the atmospheric music you make. Keep up the great work!
★★★★★
This really captures the adventurous spirit of a vast world, capturing a variety of different moods for different settings. Each track tells a story on it’s own, especially Rudibert and Geof.
★★★★★
This album has some of my favorite music to use for immersive Tabletop RPG sessions! So good! All of them are good, and I highly recommend this album and the whole series, really!
★★★★★
I’ve been using Ivan’s music for my tabletop fantasy games for a while now, and have been consistently happy with the quality and feel of the pieces! From here I have found myself pairing Blood Magic with the exploration of forlorn ruins, and The Dranik with facing up to a monstrous and terrifying threat. Really evocative, and helps me and my table get into the zone! Thanks for some great music Ivan.
★★★★★
Since I discovered Ivan Duch’s music it rapidly became my number one source of fantasy themed music. This album in particular is a must in nearly all the D&D sessions I run.
★★★★★
remarkeble good , one of the best dark fantasy albums i ever encounterd, Ivan is the best
★★★★★
I absolutely love it! I was looking for fantasy music with a Celtic touch, so this album comes at the perfect time
★★★★★
This album is the absolute best Dark Fantasy album you’ll find out there! “Out of the Nest” is just insane. If you want to use this album for TTRPGs ambiance, you’re guaranteed to keep tension at the highest with this album.
