Am I hearing things? Is the music from Dune in this game?

Once you've heard one piece of sci-fi ambient doodling you've heard them all 
Yer hearing things, not only that, but yer completely insane... [yesnod]
Blaaaah-ah-ay-ah!
Shaiiiii=Huluuuud!
Note: OP no longer needs the Weirding Module.

Nobody ever needed a Weirding Module. The book was better. [Runs]
I saw something moving beneath the surface [where is it]
"We have worm sign the likes of which not even God has ever seen!"
Wouldn't like to say where it's from but I think I've noticed more "proper music" in the game too.
Previously, the only music I really noticed was the "You've arrived at your destination" jingle.
Now there seems to be "themes" for stuff like when you find something significant in your SRV or when it gets dark or light.
Maybe I've just never noticed them before?
Regarding Dune, I bet David Braben and Frank Herbert would have a lot to talk about.
Both guys who really seem to obsess over the details of the universes they created.
Dune (the original series of books) was, IMO, probably the best sci-fi ever written.

Give Larry Niven's four Ringworld stories a go. You might change your mind. I did.
There is piano music on planetary surfaces which is not dissimilar to the music on the end credits of Dune.
The SciFi channel miniseries was pretty good. Unlike David Lynch, they had read the book.
Dr. A has them all beat on output.
Not to mention explaining real science.
And, even more depressing than the movie. At least you could MST3K the movie.

it's when the op finds out, his music was muted the whole time.
Curse that space-madness.
There is also some opera singer hitting a high-note that is both B5 and star-trek for me.
--------------------------------------
Plus I ruined Movie-Dune for myself (and I shall spread the ruin) to all the programmers out there.
As I was getting burned out due to long-standing stressful life (on all fronts), I was struggling to hold details actively in runtime/working memory in my wetware.
So as I was flipping between files/methods, and was forcefully trying to remember what variables and types I just created and needed to be typed in elsewhere,
I wound up repeating things vocally to my self,
int, int-i-int-int.
string, stringy, string, g-stringy, guitar thingy...string theory,
all except,
Chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar
now where have I heard that before

*sorry* in advance.

We need more in-game music, for exploration in particular. FD have set a high standard here.
The short music sequences provided are very appropriate and evocative. The game usually plays the sad piano piece when I fail to find the material I am looking for [knocked out]. I am sure it is taunting me.

Onionhead... Not even once.
This went so far over my head it came all the way around and ended up somewhere below my feet.
You made me watch clips all morning.
The vertigo of the space. No doubt
