2 Hours of Fantasy Music by Adrian von Ziegler (Part 1/2) 

Here is part 2 of this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-26m04TA_a60.html Same length and same style of music but all new songs that aren't found in part 1.^^

Please read: Everyone is free to use my music if credits are given, I get this question many times so I hope people will see this.^^ Exceptions are if you want to use my music in something with commercial purpose because you need written permission from me. But as far as RU-vid goes you can use my music for free even if you monetize your videos, just give credits and you can use any song you want. =) PS.: Yes, I am the composer of all the music on this video, this is my personal channel and I upload only music that I made myself.^^ All the music can be purchased, just follow the links in the video description. =) I'm an independent artist, which means I don't have a label or sponsors or any of that stuff, I'm 25 and from Switzerland. Sorry for the long text, I get questions about all those things everyday. xD

Your music has accompanied my DnD group through their entire journey. Through abandoned mines, haunted woods, bustling taverns and freezing mountains, your music has made the experience extra special. Thank you.

I was about to sleep when out of the blue my mind just went “sup loser, remember that tune you used to listen to on repeat when you were a teen? Guess who’s not sleeping again until they find it!” And man, it was a journey but I’m ever so grateful to be here yet again, after years. This compilation has always been both soothing and empowering and I find myself still loving it today! Sleep’s overrated anyway

THIS MUSIC IS SO PRETTY WHO WANT'S TO GO ON A FANTASY QUEST WITH ME?!

A true artist is an artist that makes art that inspires others. You, Adrian, inspire me so much that it hurts.

Not so Long ago, when the internet was void of truly amazing and original music. 1 great man descended upon the waists of RU-vid and blessed it with his gift of music. Adrian von Ziegler, with his glorious talent in music, created a RU-vid channel so that he may share his gift with a world that so desperately needed it. He shaped the idea of music on RU-vid in a never before seen way, shattering the expectations of everyone that was honored with getting to hear his music. After having made indescribably amazing pieces that would leave those who heard it never the same again, his labors completed. He departed to his composing tools and computer, and continued to share his gift with the world. The place where which he now resides, his own RU-vid channel, is the home to all of his glory and awe inspired pieces. This is the legend of Adrian von Ziegler, a true master of music.

Usage rights - please read: I’m posting the usage rights and important information about my music right here in a comment on every new video so that they’re easily accessible to everyone. =) USAGE: If your project (any project at all, movie, photography, websites, live shows etc.) is non-commercial, which means it doesn't earn you any money, then you can use my music for free. Only given credits are necessary, that's the only condition. Credits would be totally fine as a small text in the movie, website etc. written "Music by Adrian von Ziegler". In live shows and other projects where including a text would be difficult, an oral mention would suffice as well. =) On RU-vid and twitch you can also use my music for free even if you monetize your videos by the way! ANY school projects have automatic free permission to use my music, no license payment is required. If the project is commercial, meaning it makes money in any way (except RU-vid and twitch, see above), you would have to buy a license for the music you want to use. The license payment would be small in almost all cases except for big budget productions. It would be a one-time payment, so you can use the music you bought forever in that project. It does not give you any rights over the music however, so remixing the music, re-selling it etc. is not allowed. Giving credits is also necessary in commercial projects. Remixing, sampling and other forms of altering the original song into a new piece of music is also generally not allowed unless the remix is 100% non-commercial and labelled with the original title and author of the song (me). Adding bird noises, nature sounds or similar things are allowed. Nightcore alterations are also allowed while non-commercial and labelled with original title and author (Google "Nightcore" in case of confusion). So if your project is non-commercial or a RU-vid project, just give credits and there is nothing holding you back from using my songs. ANY song you want. =) If it's commercial stuff just write me a personal message or an email at adrianvonziegler@gmx.ch and inform me about the scale and details of the project and we'll make a deal. REQUESTED MUSIC: I generally do not accept offers to make songs on request or to write music for movies, games etc. One reason is that I can't handle it time-wise but even if I had the necessary time I would still stay away from it because I - quite honestly - don't really like to do it.^^ I basically make music to express whatever topic moves me, randomly. I tried it a few times but I have the best creativity and feel the most freedom and happiness when I do that completely alone and without being “employed” by someone. I hope that’s understandable.^^ Important: I do not allow my music to be used in any project that has a clear political, racist or discriminatory message or is pornographic. By that I mean anything that goes from direct political, racist or discriminatory videos or underlining speeches with my music, onto remixing my melodies into a song that has lyrics with clear political, racist or discriminatory message and similar things that clearly promote these things. Same goes for explicit pornography. Media with nude art is allowed, if not pornographic in nature and purpose. I hope you're having an awesome day, and thanks a lot for being interested in my music! =)

Listened to this writing a dnd campaign. Best I’ve ever written. So freaking inspiring.

I wrote the entirety of my book listening to Adrian, from start to finish, and I like to think he was there experiencing it with me, playing the background track as I struggled with my characters through the dark forests and over the ghastly mountain peaks. Looking back I should have added him into my "Acknowledgements", with his permission of course. Just a lovely, imaginative collection of songs. Thank you so very much, Adrian.

Sometimes, even for a few minutes, I feel a burning desire to leave this world, and enter a world that is free from this dark, cruel and unjust world. That I could wonder in a new dimension where anything can happen. A fantasy world. And it shall remain that way, which hurts me the most.

Adrian, I really appreciate that you're not the person who force people to buy it but instead make it music accessible for free so to buy it is the people's choice. You're really kind and honest. I really appreciate your work. Good job!

Does anyone else listen to this and imagine adventures in your head?

I love listening to your music while I write. I just now wrote 2,000+ words while listening to this. Adrian, you always thank us, but I want to thank you because writing can take a lot out of a person, including me, but when I have tunes like this to settle myself down and remain calm, then it becomes easy. Thank you Adrian for your wonderful music. Cheers!

adrian von ziegler, you cannot be human. because no human could have created this music. this music is just too beautiful to be true! ;-)

I guess not every artist thrives for Money and Glory...Some of them just want others to know how they feel, and that is Adrian von Ziegler in my eyes..That makes him Great and Kindred.I just buried my two days old child in Greece and i really don't know hot to feel,angry and sad?Desperate? Or maybe all of it..This music helps me forget about this sadness and go on with life and my wife...Greetings to Scotland and Ireland from Thessaloniki,Greece

Great job, Adrian. You're fighting the good fight! This is my jam at work today.

This is my sleeping therapy for when I go to sleep, usually when you have a tendency to overthink everything before going to bed to the point you start to cry, play this and believe you will have a decent sleep tonight 💕💕

Ah yes, my favorite bard. Everyone in the realm has heard of the great Adrian von Ziegler, and his songs have accompanied many through their adventures. He is so lenient in his laws on who can use his songs and in what ways... truly inspiring.

This brings back my memories to a place I no longer have access to and to me being in my early teens, learning to draw and reading fantasy books, slowly exploring who I am... Thank you for this art

An idea is born. Paper gets filled with ink. Music is created. Wait... Hearts are shaken. Tears fall and smiles grow. Music is absorved. Wait... People get excited. The message gets spread. Music is expanding. Wait... The pen falls from the table. Blood is shed. Music is waiting. ... A New Hero is Born. I love your work, Adrian.

I'm writing my fantasy novel to this music. I can't help but feel inspired by this music! Thank you! :)

Your music has accompanied me through my late nights writing, later nights drawing, lonely evenings, dusk time DND planning, a drama performance, and so much more. Thank you for making such wonderful things and putting it out into this world!

Ich erinnere mich noch gut daran, wie ich deine Musik vor über sieben Jahren durch dieses Video gefunden habe, als ich nach Musik als Schreibbegleitung für eine Fantasystory gesucht habe und mich sofort in deine Musik verliebt habe. Das Buch habe ich zwar nie fertig geschrieben, aber heute höre ich deine Musik beim Lesen, beim Vorbereiten meiner DnD-Runden und sie ist auch Teil meiner Playlist fürs DnD leiten, denn deine Stücke inspirieren mich bis heute😊

I am a Fantasy Fiction writer and have written a few books. And listening to your music has placed me in that state of going back into my world and experiencing it all over again. A few descriptions of a few scenes from my book as I listen to your music. A massive dragon with a large ship like a pirate ship with room for 200 or more passengers strapped to his back. A Cloud Sweeper he is called and he flies people from place to place. A King helping his subjects in building their home within a magical forest with a massive tree with homes dwelling with it's top limbs and throughout its trunk. A tree so large that the top limbs vanishes within the clouds. Beings of many different Races roaming the land as massive stone giants move about with animals that can be just as massive. Elves and Fairies roaming the woods and fields of flowers as the Fairies takes small showers from the water found within some roses when tipped. And many more incredible memories of my work flashes in my mind as I listen to your music. Well done on making this track.

This has been with me through all my BA in game design and MA in illustration, almost another year of listening to this :)

I always find myself back on this album whenever im really sick. Always helps me finally fall asleep

Adrians music is great for when I am painting! It all provokes plenty of thought and feeling.

I'm writing a book, listening to the music. Epic atmosphere. Guy, your music is wonderful!

Adrian I just want to say that you are one of the most talented Independent music composers in the world. Your music is not only beautiful but inspiring but what is even more exceptional is what a kind and caring person you seem to be. I only wish there were more people with your kind soul and creativity and open mind in the world. Thank you for all that you've given the fans of this type of music.

Best music listening and watching you afar since 2015 Adrian❤

I'm an illustrator, and man .... your sound invigorates the soul to keep working (I do arts for DnD).

Danke Adrian, Deine Musik zu hören ist für mich eine grosse Ehre. :-) Hier habe ich meine Welt gefunden.

Man, you're awesome. I'm traveling worlds while listening your songs.

Adrian von Ziegler is a brilliant composer who appreciates music! There is something for every mood and occasion. I love the depth of it.

Let's plant a new comment here to let it grow. 2 years ago I read all 4 books of Eragon with this epic mix and now I renew this habit and with it my memory and dreams of Alagaésia.... My honest thanks.

Ive returned to this as I get in the right headspace for creating once again. Thanks

my mom has insomnia and listening to this helped her relax and sleep.. i can't thank you enough! you are an awesome artist and a person... ^^ greetings from Croatia :3

I really like your music. usually, ambient music annoyes and unerves me because of its simple and slow tone, but yours keeps me intertained. I was looking for music to link to my wattpad story, so thanks for allowing use!

I use to listen to your phantastic music, if I want to write a new fantasy - book/story. (I never published one book until now). Thank you so much, that u inspire me and all your other listener and fans. You help me, getting ideas for my books, but not only this... I'm a dreamer and sometimes I need to flee into my fantasy - world, just to take a break... Sure you know what I mean ;) Your music makes me feel more than anythin else, to be in another world, and I'm really very, very thankful!!!!!!!! It makes me belive, that there are mythical creatures which I can see, different landscarpes... Your music destroies the border between the earth and the other world, there in my head... sometimes it is strange... and sometimes I'm afraid of... but I'm glad to found your'e wonderful channel, and thank you so much for your work♥

Meine Güte, ich bin richtig hin und weg! Da war ich bei Cryo Chamber unterwegs und bin auf auf eines deiner Stücke empfohlen worden. Ich war derart unerwartet überrascht, so hab ich mich lange nicht mehr gefreut :) Du bist einer der wenigen die es bei mir schaffen mit ihrer Musik diesen, wie nenn ich das, Schalter im Kopf umzulegen, und eine Art Kino zu starten. Die Fantasie erzeugt dadurch Bilder, Wälder, ganze Landschaften. Als könnte ich tief einatmen und würde die klare Luft in einem Wald einatmen. Ich bin wirklich dankbar des es noch Leute gibt wie dich. *Verneig* Freundliche Grüße aus Mittelfranken, Martin

"Reign of the Dark" is a wonderful Castlevania-inspired gothic piece.

Many thanks, I'm writing a book and this helps me, also I have a giant toad and I play this on my Walkman when I take him out for exercise in the woods.

You come from a world of magic. No Earthlander can come up with this. You are amazing.

Dear Adrian, your music are just too powerful that I can't focus on my books while I am reading and listening to any of your music, except the "relaxing" ones... XD...I would simply enjoy your music with my eyes closing, and not doing anything else at the same time. Your music are full of stories, emotions and memories which resonate with numerous phases of the history on earth, rolling my blood and touching my soul deeply. My favourites, like others, are the celtic ones...Thank you for bringing these superb neat and pristine music to us. :)

You have always been one of my most important influences and idols - thank you for your magic and music!

Geezus dude. Your music is outstanding. I'm a Sci-fi Fantasy artist and I do conventions and Renn Faires . Not only will I promote you and your music, I'd love to play your music in my booth. Talk about the perfect ambiance.

You make the most beautiful art I've ever seen. People tend to think of art as paintings, but when I hear this awe inspiring music, I can see nothing other than grand art. This is especially true since I'm all about the fantasy genre of books, and games.

I love anything to do with fantasy. Music, books, movies or even drawings or games. It's things like Skyrim and Harry Potter that just takes you out of reality for a while and gives you somewhere to go... They are amazing, but I wish there were wizards or dragons, and what really hurts the most is knowing, deep down, no matter how much you believe and hope, that they do not exist.

This is my favorite music to listen to while reading. Thank you for all your hard work; it is truly appreciated!

Tried to find music for inspiration to write some tales. Found yours. Thank you

Just beautiful, and that you share so freely...rare. I am a massage therapist, and your music takes my work to another level of healing. I love your pieces that are rythmic, yet calm. I would LOVE if you created a disc for massage & celestial healing!!!! (just a thought ;). Thank you! Never stop sharing your passion Adrian!

You can not imagine that you have a follower in Latin America. I discovered this beautiful music by chance because I've always liked to enjoy Celtic music. But this one in particular captivated me as it projects and injects energy to keep going, fighting, battling with our own mythological beings created by our own fears. Unwittingly I immerse myself in enchanted forests, full of fairies, elves and goblins. Beings that are imposed on the bad, the dark beings that hover in our mind. It is definitely a masterful music. Congratulations Adrian, since God gave you this talent ... atte Claudia

Your music is so inspiring, like I want to go write something now.

Just finished reading The Return of The King to this music, I'm almost in tears :,)

Very beautiful and relaxing. Listen to all of your music every night when i am putting my son to bed.

I wholeheartedly believe that your work will be remembered throughout the ages, comparable to how we look at Bach and Beethoven today. You are a true talent.

They say that music is dead. You're the living proof that they're wrong, I salute you o7

Dear Adrian! I would like to congratulate you for your special songs, in the world there are many beautiful songs and the most beautiful are those that speak to our soul. Your songs have a spell, I cannot explain, they touch my heart and every time that I listen to I will travel to other times, perhaps to my past lives. If you can, please talk to me my dear, I read that you find inspiration in your girlfriend, but do you believe in reincarnation? Your music does seem to raise the spirits, the elements of the other times, and makes our mind to wander and discover things, how do you explain this? So...anyway your songs are very special and I believe this songs comes from a very special spirit and mind. A genius like Mozart and others. Thank you dear Adrian for providing this affection to our lives. When I hear them I feel that you offer the world a garden full of flowers, the most various and beautiful. With love and gratitude.

The comments here have really made my day. They are just so incredibly nice and thoughtful I can hardly stop smiling. It seems like today you can't go anywhere without finding people who are just seeking attention and want to start fights and completely destroy perfectly safe places that people go to make themselves feel more accepted and at home. It really breaks my heart that even people that are older and much more mature than me, (I'm a sophomore in high school), find enjoyment in making offensive and inappropriate comments just for cheap humor or to get reactions out of others. It is so rare to find a community like this one, where each and every person is so supportive and kind to one another. This beautiful and inspiring music must truly bring out the best in all of us. ❤ Lots of love to you amazing people

So close to 1 Million!!! Go go go Ziegler!

Youve inspired me to choreograph a a Persephone dance for my Gods and Goddesses performance😊 love it so much!

Thank you Adrian for your AMAIZING music. Always I enjoyed listening when I am studying or working.

Some wonderful melodies; I enjoy listening to your stuff as I write. Excellent mood, not distracting like many "epic" labeled orchestrations. Not everything in fantasy is a battle or a dungeon!

Wonderful, just wonderful. As a fantasy artist, I will be listening to this a lot while I work (now that I've found it). Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful art with the world.

You have a wonderful talent. It was a privilege to listen to this.

Listened to your music this morning. It proved the perfect background for my own fantasy writing. You have a new subscriber! Your tunes were varied, not too fast or weird, and pleasantly inspired my own creation.

I play this music over and over while creating. Great work! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Your music deserves to be supported. You take us away !

This music connects to the dragon inside me. thank you Adrian!

If I ever want to hear some good Music... I just have to head right on over here to your channel. Keep up the good work. the entire world should be proud that such a talented musician lives among them. Vive diu vivere , vive beatus

You're music helps me write my novels. It's so amazing

This music is pure and amazing. Thank you for creating such masterpieces. May tge luck follow your way adventurer.

Hey Adrian, greetings from Germany - i'm fantasy writer and i enjoy your music! every single song is so magnificent and i get a lot of energy out of it to continue my hobby. Thank you very much to create this stuff offside the mainstream. can't hear hans zimmer and co anymore ;-)

Well, I'm from Mexico and I'm a writer (not from tumblr or any other similar place, like wattpad). I want to thank Adrian Von Ziegler since his music helps me write when I do not know what else to add, also in my studies it was a great help allowing me to concentrate. He is a great artist and in fact my favorite number 1.

Thank you so much for your music - wonderful pieces. We always hear it when playing Dungeons and Dragons ("Gaelic Earth" is our frog song.) Thank you for your art.

I'm in the process of writing/creating a fantasy story and you're music is helping with my brainstorming and creating the lore and history of my world. Thank you for making such wonderful music! If I use any of your music in RU-vid videos I'll gladly credit you. I might even use some of these in my D&D sessions! ^_^

Your music is so well composed! I really appreciate you posting your music.

You are truly gifted, touched by the divine. God bless you always

Einfach mal ein Kompliment an all deine Musik - das ist wirklcih das was mich beim Lesen und sonst auch total in andere Welt versetzt - genau das Was Musik für mich machen soll. Du hast so viel Talent und begeisterst mich echt total! Liebe Grüße aus Nürnberg - Deutschland - ich hoffe du bist weiterhin so erfolgreich!

I should make a Fantasy story listening to these music ❤️❤️❤️👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 #MagicalFantasy

Your music is so awesome! I'm writing a fantasy story and I love listening your stuff while writing! It's so relaxing and beautiful ♥

this gave me inspiration to write more of my story called: "between the black and white". I can see it now. Golden skies, rippling hills, moving as if mimicking the waves of the ocean... so much inspiration out of 2 hours

My friend, I write to your music. It has given me motivation and made me feel in complete control. I can't thank you enough for the fantastic music you create. I even brought two of your albums for my ipod. I tip my hat to you and once again thank you for your hard work.

always when I listen to your music in my mind will be skyrim

Let's go, book. Just a few thousand words.

May the GOds bless you man.Thank you for this divine gift.

Adrian, just don't you ever forget that you are a gift to humankind.

I was waiting for that for some time :D Many Thanks Adrian :)

I'm surprised the people that make the music for World of Warcraft or Legend of Zelda haven't hired you yet. Your music as is would be awesome in those game franchises. I can already imagination Fateful Reunion as a look back on a dark event of Hyrule's history.

at 107.37 gave me the chills and helped me write a story that will one day be watched.

god this music is so amazing, picturing epic knights, wizards, sieges, and elven forests is what drives my passion for this

Who would dislike this? Honestly. What kind of a twisted, dark world do you dislikers live in?

definately music for writing fantasy novels, keep it up adrian great music.

I've been enjoying your work so much. It is hilarious, actually, how much of your music I can recognize as being "from" this or that. I've apparently been a fan for quite a bit longer than I thought. Specifically, the videogame Mount & Blade: Warband, and so many of the mods for it. I just recognized "Victorious" as the title theme for the official DLC Viking Conquest, and "Evocation" as one of my favorite pieces used in the Nova Aetas community mod. Love the music. Thank you for being so permissive with your not-for-profit licensing!

I love this music SO much! And no ads during the music! Thank you🤩

Adrian....u r truly a God Gifted . i like ur composed tracks ..

Working on a fantasy book now!

I'm currently trying to work on a map and other things for something I'm working on and your music really helping with the creative flow. I love it!

I feel right now like I have to write a book about how the world should look like in my eyes, with a load of fantasy in it. Awesome!
