1238: Hengband \\ the soundtrack & track list for this open source dark fantasy roguelike
1In version 3.0.0Alpha63 on July 10, 2022, long-running Japanese roguelike Angband variant Hengband added over 90 MB of optional dark fantasy music and sound effects. The music plays appropriate tracks at appropriate times (character creation, dungeons, death, etc), looping smoothly while you're exploring a dungeon floor or whatever.
The tracks are open source mp3s from opengameart.org, according to the readme. I initially started recording them just to upload to YouTube so I could check to make sure they don't trigger any copyright notices. They didn't! = D This recording of them was a bit thrown together so it's somewhat rough, but hopefully it may be useful to someone else too.
I'm thinking that I might use them as looping background music when playing Angband. : )

(I like the added sound effects too, they fit better and are less distracting than Angband's optional SFX. Could use a sound for digging though. : D)
Hengband is free and open source, and includes an English version:
