Why don't we compose our own theme song for adventure mode?

The only instrument should be bloodcurdling screams of pain/rage.

This is in my head whenever using the travel map:

I can't take Dwarf Fortress seriously anymore. I never realized it fit so well with this! Thank you, good sir, as now my awesome Terminator Dorf in adamantine armor and a modded trenchcoat will have a companion following behind with coconuts. 8)

Live long if you can, and prosper by any means necessary.  Any means, Urist.  So pull that lever, or by Armok, I'll lock you outside come next siege.
He who plays with dwarves must take care that he does not become a dwarf.  And when you stare into DwarfFort, Dwarffort stares back into you.

Yes, I did. I thought the combat system was quite realistically gruesome and most everything else was pretty realistic so I took the game as a serious game, except, you know the hilarity of all the crap happening to everyone. Now I just think of everything as Monty Python humor :D

The master theme song for Adventure mode is definitely this one:

I died so many times to wildlife/ lucky shots so this song is pretty much THE song for me.

I got myself a decent set of Final Fantasy soundtracks to play, and change the tune according to situation. XII has the better wandering soundtracks according to biomes, IV and VI has some good fight music. Shadow of the Colossus has some epic, well, *type* colossus battle music.

I suppose Phantasy Star has some good tracks as well (PSO as well). Great for traveling the lush wilds or ancient ruins, or battling a giant centipede. Some PSO songs have respective battle songs to go with the travel music as the immediate link in the first one has.

Actually, anything with a good looping theme works for me.

But yeah, if you can line up the biomes with the XII themes for similar levels (Dalmasca Eastersand/Westersand themes for deserts for example; Eastersand's would work for starting an adventure), then it actually works well. Depending on the quest type for caverns and such IV's cave themes work well for exploring, but then switch theme to an Esper battle from XII when you run into a clown. Now you're in for some fun.

EDIT:
I think Chrono Cross has some good adventuring music as well.

When fighting megabeasts and sub-megabeasts, I recommend: Two Steps From Hell: King's Legion http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tsfh+kings+legion&aq=f
When fleeing/fighting for your life from multiple hostiles, I recommend: Two Steps From Hell: Hypnotica http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKGI6LbLE_w
When participating in an epic battle between large groups of humanoids, I recommend: Immediate Music: Lacrimosa http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHPYOcgde98
When you are just being epic, I recommend: Veigar: Eternal Empire: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9LKvVs33mU
When you or a companion are dying a slow painful death, I recommend: Clint Mansell's: Requiem For a Dream http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9LKvVs33mU
When you are doing anything that involves demons and combat, I recommend: Two Steps From Hell: Velocitron http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywt7lDo_hbI
