Usage rights - please read: I’m posting the usage rights and important information about my music right here in a comment on every new video so that they’re easily accessible to everyone. =) USAGE: If your project (any project at all, movie, photography, websites, live shows etc.) is non-commercial, which means it doesn't earn you any money, then you can use my music for free. Only given credits are necessary, that's the only condition. Credits would be totally fine as a small text in the movie, website etc. written "Music by Adrian von Ziegler". In live shows and other projects where including a text would be difficult, an oral mention would suffice as well. =) On KZfaq and twitch you can also use my music for free even if you monetize your videos by the way! ANY school projects have automatic free permission to use my music, no license payment is required. If the project is commercial, meaning it makes money in any way (except KZfaq and twitch, see above), you would have to buy a license for the music you want to use. The license payment would be small in almost all cases except for big budget productions. It would be a one-time payment, so you can use the music you bought forever in that project. It does not give you any rights over the music however, so remixing the music, re-selling it etc. is not allowed. Giving credits is also necessary in commercial projects. Please note that "for free" only applies to the usage license. Music is my full-time job and is where 100% of my earnings come from. So no matter what you use my music for, whether it's commercial or non-commercial use, I appreciate that you purchase the music instead of downloading it for free. Many people misunderstand this part so I need to clear this up. I love making music, but if everyone would just get it for free I would not be able to pay rent, so please understand. It was always my dream to make enough money to survive with music being my only job, and that is only possible because of people who go and buy that music. Remixing, sampling and other forms of altering the original song into a new piece of music is also generally not allowed unless the remix is 100% non-commercial and labelled with the original title and author of the song (me). Adding bird noises, nature sounds or similar things are allowed. Nightcore alterations are also allowed while non-commercial and labelled with original title and author (Google "Nightcore" in case of confusion). So if your project is non-commercial or a KZfaq project, just give credits and there is nothing holding you back from using my songs. ANY song you want. =) If it's commercial stuff just write me a personal message or an email at adrianvonziegler@gmx.ch and inform me about the scale and details of the project and we'll make a deal. REQUESTED MUSIC: I have recently made a very good experience with collaborating with other artists and am now - carefully - open to requests. Please note before sending me a request that any agreement will have to assure me a high level of control and independence over the composing process and certain copy- and intellectual rights over any composition that has been created on request (this entails for example that I can still upload and sell any music that I composed for a given project). Important: I do not allow my music to be used in any project that has a clear political, racist or discriminatory message or is pornographic. By that I mean anything that goes from direct political, racist or discriminatory videos or underlining speeches with my music, onto remixing my melodies into a song that has lyrics with clear political, racist or discriminatory message and similar things that clearly promote these things. Same goes for explicit pornography. Media with nude art is allowed, if not pornographic in nature and purpose. I hope you're having an awesome day, and thanks a lot for being interested in my music! =)

A dark fairy tale told in classical music. I don't know why but when I make something that focuses on fairy tales I automatically compose the music with Slavic influences.^^ I guess Slavic melodies are the essence of fairy tales for me. You can get the song here, together with all my other music, the song number is 351: adrianvonziegler.bandcamp.com/album/the-complete-discography You can also support me and my music directly on Patreon if you wish: www.patreon.com/AdrianvonZiegler I hope you have a wonderful day/night, whatever time it is when you read this text!

This is definitely what Vlad the Impaler would play in his castle if he had speakers.

This is some epic level music... Could totally imagine it being used in a secret revealing kinda movie scene

Perfect mood for me. Its almost midnight here &I can see the full moon outside the window.

Hey Adrian, seit nunmehr als 10 Jahren verfolge ich deine Kompositionen. Ich bin mordsbeeindruckt insbesondere von diesem Album und wünsche dir echt wirklich auch die Annerkennung ausserhalb von KZfaq!

Perfect timing! Currently writing a book with some pretty dark events and your music always inspires me deeply! Thank you!

Makes me ready for Halloween!!

Adrian you have people that love your music from all around the world :D This song is amazing

As a lot of subscribers, I totally agree for saying that this music is so peaceful and also so beautiful, I imagine that it is one of the 22 dark songs that you composed in november (I recognize the kind of your first creations), after this tiring day, I honestly appreciate to relax with this beautiful surprise 🙂

I’m constantly amazed how you keep on posting such magical , underrated and original songs over and over without them sounding similar to each other. Amazing work❤️

Thank you Adrian! Reminds me of Castlevania!!

I feel as though this is the type of song where someone’s true form awakens and they have to choose which path to go down! I love this song and alot of his others.

I see a new video by Adrian, automatically press like even before I play it 😂

I can just imagine a wolf sneaking up on somebody to this. A flash of fur seen between some dead trees, gleaming teeth, a bright splash of red, then silence. And then the sadness of loved ones finding the body. Brings a tear to my eye, I'm not lying.

Amazing and beautiful as always ! I'm glad to follow your trully astonishing work !

Thanks from Brazil, Adrian. Your music helps me a lot to disconnect a little from reality and recharge my energies.

I'm listening to it right now, and even the song is not ended, I'd like it to last days. So... Incredible. Thank you for this gift in these difficult weeks of quarantine.

As usual, sensational. Your Talent is incredible. God given.

I started using your music for ambience in Curse of Strahd for my dnd group, and it is perfect! Really helps my players get into the mood and it's made me a hit! Such amazing work!

Your channel is underrated and deserves more love for the talent and work you put into your music👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

This is extremely talented as always.

For some reason this makes me think of the Segovia Castle in Spain at night.

Wow,this is perfect for my book; thanks Adrian :) It's been 4 years almost, that I've been listening to your music and this is one of my favourites!

Your music makes me reflect, and realize how I am in touch with my deepest feelings. They are an abyss of sadness and contemplation, where authors like Shakespeare, Darwing, Walt Whitman and Dostoievski, are my only companions, along with my profound appreciation for biology. Keep us going with you in this dark and thrilling journey paved by your fans admiration and your compositions!

Sehr gut,Herr von Ziegler! Your music is aweasome. 🎶✨

Yay! These frequent music uploads are a highlight for me, keep them coming. You are super talented

I'm planning to record an audiobook of Elric of Melniboné in italian and this kind of music is really inspiring. Knowing that I can count on your beautiful tracks makes me feel even more confident about this little project of mine, so thank you xxx

Your music is beautiful Adrian. Its midnight here so, Listening to this music is so calming and inspirational. Can't Thank you enough for the music 🎶❤️.

Absolutely adore this music Adrian... The darkness, the sinister depth, it's as if someone is tunnelling down a corruption such as a rabbit hole of endless twisted depth. The piano on it's high notes, brings out a touching atmosphere that is both chilling, in a vibrant sense, and, a suspenseful one. The strings, work as amazing pads, with stunning harmonies in the chords they bring, the distancing in them as well, and how they sound together, it's moving in emotion and how it speaks the volumes that it does. The low piano is gripping, the subtleness in the drums, sounds just right for fitting with everything else present in this masterpiece. The artwork as well, couldn't be better for the music, it's so fitting ❤️. Love how haunting this song is overall as well. I am almost too into the paranormal mysterious and theories of things, so I love this haunting spectral theme ❤️

You find and share the very soul of the music , thank you.

Thank you Adrian for the music to a delightfully dark, yet extremely beautiful fairytale! I’d honestly love to hear more about the stories or the inspiration for your compositions, especially these types of songs that are so vivid, but I guess the fun part is that you allow us to imagine our own versions of the tale. Thank you once again.

Your music is a fundamental part of my role-playing and warhammer games with my friends. Thank you so much for your work

Your videos are always so good to hear. Especially at a time with all the tension and stress like this, the music helps to relax

This is amazing....your dark songs help me to forget about everything even for the time of their duration even those 2-3 minutes...

All your Dark Fantasy Musics are legendary !

I loooove this song and the pictures you choose for each song are always a perfect match!!!! Happy Easter and thank you so much for this beautiful eerie gift!!!! Winter is coming to Australia and yesterday it was stormy and the most beautiful autumn day you can imagine! This song fits the mood so perfectly!

Nice song! Haunting!

Dark music is the perfect vibe I need for inspiration for my fantasy story!

Totally using it for my Curse of Strahd campaign. I introduced my players to your music through D&D and they fell in love. They will love this too, I'm sure.

This is so beautiful 🌟

The moment that violin started, it just lifted me up and carried me away.

Great,,as always..we who hear this have a totally different mystic world in a corner of our mind..I can feel you Adrian..Great work bro..

Your music really is so epic Adrian! I love the vibes it gives! I've always been intrigued by dark music and can easily get lost in the images I get from listening to it! I also love your more mellow music because it gives a very nice sound and puts me in a state of peace, but even with that I can get lost in the images I see in my mind from those too! Keep up the great work man!

Thats pure magic to me, I'm listening this already 10' th time or so... Amazing

amazing, dark, mysterious!

i don't get the people who disslike something that took time to make. it doesn't make sense ! if you don't like it, just watch something else ! you should at least respect the effort ! Amazing music by the way !!!!

Finally you come back ♥️♥️♥️♥️

It's dark, as in the kind of dark that slowly comes and embraces you while you knew something was coming, but you kind of couldn't stop it and failed... Do I hear Slavic influences? Maybe, maybe not... But our folklore surely gives a lot of dark fairytale inspiration! I wonder what kind of a fairy tale you'd write! I'd love to hear one day a song that uses historical instruments like the rebecs (especially tenor ones), fiddles and horns... Anyway, a great song!

Woww love it... better .. i love them all .. thanks Adrian 😘😍

Amazing music, I really like your music dude..........

Beaityful👏👏

Immediate big like 💜

Oh my gosh! My group will be going to the vampire lord Strahd's castle of Ravenloft soon in D&D soon. I hope our DM will consider using this music. Thank you for your work, as always great!

Wonderbar.

This has got some Dark Souls vibes to it, I like it

Nice

it just calms me and my cousin said she can sleep to your music

Adrian is 1 mythical man.

Sounds great! Its dark, but also very beautiful. In my opinion it reminds me of some type of lullaby (the melody and chord progression), i dont know if that makes any sense. Anyway.. Really nice work!
