Dronolan's Tower: Journeys in Darkness—Volume 1: Those Who Dwell Beneath CD
Forever Young Music
Dronolan's Tower produces medieval fantasy mood music appropriate for use in conjunction with pencil and paper Role-Playing Games (RPGs) such as Dungeons and Dragons or Collectible Card Games (CCGs) such as Magic: The Gathering.
Following on the heels of the successful 2007 debut, "Legends of Kitholan Vol. 1," Dronolan's Tower offers up another full-length album of gaming music, this time with a focus on classic 'dungeon-crawling' themes.
The music takes listeners on a journey through the dark corners of a medieval fantasy world. Deep caverns, crumbling castles, haunted crypts, and forgotten cities await those with the courage to brave their dangers. Featuring an average song length of 7.5 minutes with seamless transitions between tracks, "Journeys in Darkness" is perfect for game masters who want to put an entire CD on loop while their players explore dungeons shrouded in mystery and fraught with peril.

Another great release from Dronolan's Tower! While I also have all of the Midnight Syndicate CDs and one by Nox Arcana, IMO, Dronolan's Tower remains the creme of the crop. That having been said, I do feel that "Those Who Dwell Beneath" is a step down from DT's first release. I normally enjoy dark, brooding music, and this disc certainly delivers that in spades. I felt, however, that some pieces sounded a little too much like one another, and that the percussions were at times overpowering, if not redundant and uninspired. The heaviness of the music could have been maintained at having to rely on booming tympanes or kettle drums. That's a relatively minor quibble -- this CD still provides a great deal of inspiration while I'm preparing an adventure, and a great deal of atmosphere at the table. My players enjoy hearing it in the background. It's a great soundtrack for a Midnight campaign, and for any other campaign that is dark and gritty. I really hope that DT will release more music in the future!

These guys really need a sample track. I'm always looking for new music for my game soundtrack, but with no real idea how this sounds, I'm not going to risk $15.00 to find out...

I like the sample stuff better than the Midnight Syndicate stuff that seems to be the standard for fantasy RPGs. This is a lot more cinematic without being too overbearing or memorable (like the LotR soundtrack, which is also used a lot). I might just pick it up...
