70% completed, pretty much just working on the Combat aspect now, and compatibility patches for mods that alter races, so that they won't overwrite the keywords I added to the races so that combat music would play specific for that race/creature/NPC.
Also also small fixes with some specific explore songs (like 2-3) cut off right before they finish, everything will be perfect... in due time.

*NEW Post Date - 10/3/2018
I am back, and reworking the mod, majority of things will be the same, but will include fixes, like some exploration tracks cut off before they fully finish.
I'll be making compatibility patches for mods that edit race, and mods that edit gated cities such as Whiterun, Solitude, Riften, and Markarth, so my Town music will play for those mods as well.
Also going to try to find a method to make specific combat songs play for specific fitting races without even HAVING to edit the actual races themselves, adding a Keyword to them that links to the Combat tracks.
Instead, maybe try to just put the actual race to trigger the specified combat tracks... tried that before, didn't work, but maybe there's another way.
Also, found a couple new tracks for dungeons/caves that everyone would enjoy.. a specific Blood and Wine cave exploration track that can be heard here -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kw-Fx8haSB8
This mod will be better than ever, and I am for sure back to finish what I started.

Word Of Power has been released for those of you that liked it in the previous version. So now when you absorb dragon souls, and learn new shouts, you will hear a Witcher 3 song play.
I also figured something else out about the race "ActorType" issue... if this works, you will NO LONGER hear NPC/Humanoid combat music play for Vampires, and "specific Animal tracks" won't play for Chaurus, and Trolls.
I am also working on TW3SO (The Witcher 3 Sound Overhaul) which will replace some of Skyrim's UI sound effects to make it sound more like Witcher 3's.
===============
~NOTES ON TW3SO (I SUGGEST READING)~
*To better fit a more Witcher style, I have muted the chanting when coming near a Word Of Power Wall.
*When leveling up, I muted the chanting sounds to also better fit a Witcher style.
I still got much more to do, but the basic stuff is out of the way.
===============
~NOTES ON TW3MO Full Version (HIGHLY SUGGEST READING)~
*I left Sovngarde's music default, I couldn't find anything from Witcher 3 that'll fit.
*I left DLC1 (Dawnguard) Forgotten Vale's exploration music default, it is already fitting enough.
*I left DLC2 (Dragonborn) landscape exploration default. But everything else, Apocrypha, Dungeons, Caves, etc will play Witcher 3 music.
*I left Jorrvaskr's music default. I will replace it with something else in the future... as soon as I find what to replace it with.
*I left High Hrothgar's music default. I will replace it with something else in the future... as soon as I find what to replace it with.
*Taverns with a very low population will play only the more calm Witcher 3 Tavern music.
===============
~Q&A~
Q: Some combat tracks won't play for every enemy I face, why?*
A: I made tracks play for specific enemie for more realism of course. Some tracks won't fit NPCs/Humans/Humanoids, some won't fit Animals, some won't fit Draugr, Vampires and specific creatures.
--------
Q: Bards keep interrupting the tavern tracks!
A: Whenever a bard decides to play an instrument, or sing, it automatically mutes tavern tracks.
Download this so that the bards will only play upon request, or play very less often, you choose.
This mod is editing lots of cells and even races, no wonder things went wacky in my game lol. It desperately needs some cleaning. But I guess at this point no one cares anymore.
Hi I have copied what's inside data folder into Skyrim Special Edition - DATA folder, i hope i have done this the right way. But the vanilla crap music still play at Fort Dawnguard and sometime when exploring. A little help, pretty please?
Any chance that you made a 'mixed with vanilla music version' like yggdrasil did it? I would be very kind of you to consider it and mean a lot at least to me
