And the guy in Ardford who hits on every girl - guess he can be a hero after all. Yeah, I think it's supposed to be album art for some supplementary disc Enterbrain sells, of music meant for RPGS.

I find it hard to remember what music played where, unless it is something that's repeated a lot Fair enough, I've made an attempt to address this.

"Thatched Villages" is by Kevin McLeod - his website is full of rather good royalty-free music if you need some for a project. Yeah, MacLeod has knowingly or unknowingly scored many a random free project. Going through his work can result in remembering a lot of random games. Besides "Thatched Villagers", he also did the music being used for succubus communities.

I do have to say, though, that I initally had a hard time getting used to the custom music when it was introduced. Not because of any fault in the custom tracks themselves, but because TLS was my first-ever RPG Maker game--which meant that I associated the generic RPG Maker music with TLS and TLS only (and I still do!) I never even had any idea that the music was generic in any form; as far as I was concerned, the music was already custom. (Hell, it took me a while to even understand what RPG Maker was in the first place.) Completely understandable why it was swapped out, of course; TLS deserves its own music. Well, and on the other end of the spectrum are people familiar enough with the idea that they prejudge RPG Maker projects, especially those using stock assets. I think this was a motivating factor in the sweeping changes.
