"Dwarven City" is another good offering from Randin Graves, who also contributed "Dark Ritual" to the Sonic Legends line. Take everything you stereotypically think about dwarves—a little harsh, preferring underground or undermountain dwellings, working in forges—and translate that into music. That's what Graves has done for you in this track. The music and sound effects evoke that "dwarven feel" very well. However, the track exhibits a greater volume range than most of the other Sonic Legends soundscapes, making it a little more difficult to use; also, after a while, the instrumentation chosen for the melodic line might start to grate a little. Also, the ID3 tags, which give the name of the track as "Dwarf Mountain," don't match the product description, which calls the track "Dwarven City." Even so, I'm glad to have this soundscape in my collection, and expect to use it later in my current campaign when the PCs visit an underground colony of dwarves.
