Hey gang,

So I know I\'m super new here, but KSP has fast become one of my favorite pastimes, and I was immediately inspired to write some music for it because it has none. I came up with something I enjoy listening to while playing so much, I couldn\'t help but share it with you all. So load up itunes or whatever you like, put this on, and launch some rockets.

I tried to capture the majesty and quirky humor of the game at once and I don\'t think I did too bad a job.

Without further ado, I give you 'The Few, The Proud, The Green'.

Feedback appreciated!

Thank you! I currently have it on loop; it makes the whole experience going to the Mun that much more epic...although it was inadvertently hilarious to have this music on while I was bouncing all over the place trying to land..!

Many thanks, Abrexus! I\'m not sure you should stop playing Benny Hill, because that pretty much encapsulates every time I try to land, at least...

I\'m presently working on the next track in a series, an entire suite of music intended to capture the entirety of a there-and-back munar excursion:

1. The Few, the Proud, the Green (launch)

2. Moonrise over Kerbin (orbit)

3. Onward and Upward (Trans-munar Injection)

4. The Descent

5. Surface of Mun

6. The Journey Home/Splashdown

A little ambitious, but what the hey, it\'s summer and I have some spare time.

Just wanted to say (im not a coder or whatever this is just a suggestion) maybe if you can get one of the plugin makers to code this into the game so it will play like you want it to! that would be an awesome plugin and maybe you can actually submit the entire album you\'re making to the developers and they might add it! anway great job i cant wait for more

I\'ve never heard of this Club Penguin you speak of...but I can confirm that the melody was inspired heavily by The Right Stuff...it\'s been floating around my brain for awhile, and when I played this game and got into it, I was like 'aha!'. Now I sound like a pretentious jerk! :P

I think this music is better for a 'menu music', when the game starts and the menu appear.

For the launch, maybe use a more stressful theme, because in my opinion the launch is always a critical part of the fly, it\'s tense !

Anyway this is a really good music ;)(I\'m secretly hoping your futur soundtracks will be include in-game, it\'s one of the only missing things in KSP)

I just want to throw my support in for the further tracks! I really enjoyed what you have done so far (as I mentioned earlier), and I am mixing that in with the music from 'The Right Stuff' and of course the Benny Hill theme for when things go a bit bonkers!
