This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

The soundtrack for Dwarf Fortress premium consists of fifteen compositions. Some releases feature three additional bonus tracks.

Development[edit]

The original soundtrack for Dwarf Fortress was composed and played by the game's co-creator Toady One. The soundtrack consists of two flamenco-inspired compositions [1]. Tabs for both compositions can be found in DF2014:Soundtrack.

In 2022, the Dwarf Fortress premium edition OST was released. The main composers and performers are Omar Dabbous, Simon Swerwer, and Águeda Macias (Simon Swerwer has previously worked on community projects for SoundSense). Some of the songs include lyrics in the Dwarven language, they sound appropriately ancient and have a folkish mystery about them.[2]
