Diablo II Music - Kurast Docks

The music played at the Kurast Docks in Act III. Composed by Matt Uelmen. This is what he has to say about the track: "This track never really lived up to its promise, in my opinion. That percussion loop could have been much more if I had dug into the beats more. It is moments like these that the limitations of sampling can really be horrible - if anything called for a loopy, 60s style brass chart, this one was it. The marimba lines are fun, though, and the bass flute gets a nice little melody at the end. Act 3 was a great deal of fun for me, in part because of a trip to Guatemala shortly before writing it. I think there is a bit more "Rain Dogs" in here, though, than anything too tropical. The brass just needed more personality than I knew how to give, at the time. Thankfully, I didn&need too - Alex Munn did some really fun stuff for the backgrounds, and Ormus was probably the only NPC who I didn&instantly want to kill. I had a strange, begrudging respect for the Act 2 palace guards, though." - Matt Uelmen
