Musical moods

I usually listen to the EB music, sometimes my mind ignores it but it never bothers me.
I know its a bit cliché but I guess pagan metal/folk could work for sweboz? Mehinr, XIV Dark Centuries, Heidevolk etc...

I usually don't mind just listening to the standard EB music. It does get repetitive, but it's not bad so I just leave it.
However, I do have an alternate playlist on my computer which is made up of my favorite music from a number of other computer games. I mostly use it for when I play Civilization, but I've used it for EB as well. It's made up of a lot of music from other Total War games, especially M2TW:K, which has the best music in my opinion. There's also music from games like Age of Empires and city-builders like Caesar and Pharaoh. It does not always go with what I'm doing in the game, since I just play it on shuffle, but at least it isn't repetitive, and all of it is good and is not just background music.

Behold! Clannad:

Also recommended are the songs (my other favorites): Dheanainn Sugradh, Mo Mhaire, and Dulaman. You'd best avoid their newer stuff, it's... Not so good.

Also look into Jethro Tull for more easily digested Celtic influenced music or Five Hand Reel or Boys of the Lough for more Clannady stuff. (Feel free to PM me if you wish to see a 30 song playlist of similar stuff that I compiled awhile back on grooveshark.)
