Missing music?

OK was looking at the downloads section the other day.. there are some nice "extra" songs i have not heard yet... have they been taken out or something?

One example is http://www.ryzom.com/data/music/atmosph ... _night.mp3

I don't see why this song doesn't play at night fall every night in the desert?

Anyway maybe i'm wrong and it does play for everyone but me??

Some answers on this subject would be nice from anyone in the know :)

Thanks

I know that they hired the former Funcom music director Bjorn Arve Lagim to compose the music to the game, but maybe it's on hold due the financial trouble Nevrax' been in.
He also made the music to Anarchy Online and the Longest Journey, so he can't be cheap.

AO's music was fantastic! Be cool to have that here ...

Well...

InGame Music allright, it might have it´s entertaining moments.
But I prefere hearing an aggro MOB advance from behind and being able to run, or defend myself, over being torn appart by it whilst listening to an annyoing tune over and over again.

When I´m in the mood for Music I just use Winamp in the Background with my favorite Scores, including the SoR Score, wich I like very much and wich IMHO is very fitting.

Take it as it is: Ryzom is different to mainstream Games, in not just one way. ;)

AO's music is indeed some of the best in the MMOG genre. I would sometimes go afk in certain zones just to get the cool music.

That said, I appreciate the lack of an omnipresent soundtrack in SoR. I feel much more immersed in the world when the only sounds are those of the creatures around me. Getting the city-entry fanfares are fine however.

I'd welcome a score to enhance the SoR experience. The music can always be disabled ;)

Those are my thoughts.... If it's as good as the AO soundtrack I say bring it on. You can disable the music if you don't like it .. ;)

Ehm, it IS in InGame...

Maybe you´ve got it disabled?
I have done it.
While the music is certainly good, it annyoes me to no end, to hear the same tune everytime I enter a city.
And all other tunes are there too. Charakter Chreation, Login, Porting etc.
*shrug* Don´t no what the fuss is all about.
