I got started in Stellaris recently, and saw this mod while browsing around. I couldn't resist, given that I regularly listen to Cryochamber artists. But, on the topic of the comment, I wanted to say I had probably the most memorable event so far thanks to this mod.

I found Sanctuary, which was armed to the teeth with ridiculously powerful defenses, and got an automated greet mentioning how it's been operative for so many millenia, giving hints about how their creators haven't visited in such a long time. Meanwhile, the music changed from the default vanilla tracks to "Aphotic". The music, which was hopeful and uplifting, suddenly became ominous and mysterious dark ambient while it happened. The situation had such a fitting atmosphere, and it got burnt into my memory thanks to it.

To be honest, I think this music fits the game better than the vanilla tracks, and gives it a more fitting mood. Thank you for making this, and hoping to see more of them.

@Obi-Juan Kenobi These are a fantastic series of soundtracks! Thanks for allowing us to add them to our Stellaris playthroughs.

update please :) thanks!

@JustinWPU. It does actually work. Did you read the description? You need to disable the vanilla tracks in the in game music menu by unchecking them if you don't want to hear any vanilla music.

If I did anything to remove or replace the base soundtrack it could make the mod incompatible with lots of other mods that some people might want to use this with.

Saw 'Dark Ambient' and subscribed without looking. That it's Apocryphos is a definite bonus.

Moe Mod Compilation
Greetings, And thank you for the creation of this awesome mod! I love it and wish to keep playing with it. However I have a request. After the recent Megacorp update I feel as though the game went a poor direction design wise. Portrait sizes are to small and many other things. As such I am playing with version 2.1.3 before the update. If possible can I have access to the mod version that supports V 2.1.3? I have a “Moe Mod Compilation” That it is apart of that I wish to keep playing with. Thank you for your time and consideration! “ Mod Compilation link https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1526656277

Thank you for continuing to update this mod. Please continue to do so. I can't play Stellaris without it anymore, Apocryphos is perfect for it. :summer2019city:

Tunafish76 13 Feb, 2019 @ 8:56pm 
Might be worth setting the version to 2.2.* so every minor patch won't require a manual version update.
Bong Crisby  [author] 12 Feb, 2019 @ 9:22pm 
@chocojosu should be updated again - thanks for the heads up
chocojosu 12 Feb, 2019 @ 3:04pm

Bong Crisby  [author] 27 Jan, 2019 @ 1:05am 
@SirHook done and done. thanks again for the heads up
SirHook 26 Jan, 2019 @ 10:18pm

Bong Crisby  [author] 13 Jan, 2019 @ 2:51am

chocojosu 12 Jan, 2019 @ 5:29am 
Yes please, can't play without this mod! Version 2.2.2 please!
AI Android 7 Jan, 2019 @ 9:45pm 
could you update for 2.2.2 please? I don't know why but i've been getting nasty crashes and i've gone through and looked at all my mods and this is the only one plus the other albums that I have that says out of date
Davi 7 Dec, 2018 @ 9:19pm 
Great, thanks! :)
Bong Crisby  [author] 7 Dec, 2018 @ 9:08pm 
@ELDER WOLғ Thanks for the heads up - just updated all my mods for the new patch
Davi 7 Dec, 2018 @ 8:04am 
2.2? :)
Bong Crisby  [author] 3 Oct, 2018 @ 9:40pm 
@SirHook Yes, they are. I've made several attempts to contact the artists and ask for permission, but never have gotten a response from anyone, or been asked to take down any of my mods. But there is unfortunately always a chance your videos might get flagged if you livestream using my music mods, or almost any of the other music mods available in the workshop.
SirHook 3 Oct, 2018 @ 9:23pm 
are theses copyrighted? couse i live steam this game on youtube and twitch.
Bichote 29 Sep, 2018 @ 6:23pm 
BTW Goosebumps by Travis Scott fits real well when you play Stellaris
Bong Crisby  [author] 27 Sep, 2018 @ 10:06pm 
@V.Shevchenko [11thACR] I will definitely take a look at his scores and consider using them for my next mod. Thanks for the suggestion
Bungis 27 Sep, 2018 @ 9:28pm 
May I recommend creating a mod using, or adding in pieces of Edward Artemiev's Stalker and Solaris scores? His works are the more underrated and unknown sci-fi scores seeing as his music was composed in the USSR but some of his tracks (namely Solaris) would be fitting for both a dark ambient soundtrack and for Stellaris in general in my opinion.
Cannibalistic Vegan 23 Sep, 2018 @ 4:46pm 
same, i really like it's main theme by toto
[TNC]SITH 15 Sep, 2018 @ 6:05pm 
Thx a lot pal Dune my favorite sci fi movie of all time much appreciate if you can :) :steamhappy:
Bong Crisby  [author] 15 Sep, 2018 @ 5:48pm 
@[TNC] SITH not very familiar with dune myself, but I will definitely take a look and consider making a mod for the soundtrack. depending on how it sounds it might actually fit with another mod I was considering making using some spacey remixes of prominent 80s sci-fi movie soundtracks
[TNC]SITH 15 Sep, 2018 @ 3:16pm 
Would appreciate if you would do the Dune 1984 movie soundtracks , i tried putting Dune intro ogg file in my music folder but with no joy. I think Dune 1984 soundtrack in this game would be heaven.
