Young Romans

The Rise of Rome is an addon to Age of Empires and, to be honest, I have no idea if I've ever played it. But since a lot of songs I know appear in this gamerip that were missing from the main game, I probably have. Again, there's basically nothing I can tell you that will make you feel what these tracks trigger in me.

And while the gamerip of the main game contains a lot of 'boring' ambient songs, The Rise of Rome has all the great classics in it: Sick Sate Rittim with its rattles and the rhythmic thumping of the drum sounds wonderfully archaic, Fretless Salsa with the organs party-like. String Attack! is exactly what it promises, an attack of violins that suitably underline the dramatic carnage. And Medieval Melod is a (medieval) melody that is simply fun to listen to. An (un)clear recommendation for anyone who has made it through the article to the main game.
