wilall138 Nothing like a lovely fanzine for my Dungeon Crawl campaign with a great occupying soundtrack 👊🏻

Baba Mithrandir It was such an honour to have been a part of this compilation! Thank you for the opportunity, good people! Baba Mithrandir blesses all! Favorite track: दारू पीणी, के रम- (Piyakdu Demo 1).

doaktionary I'm on board with any collection with Sunken Grove, but the rest album absolutely does not disappoint. Not only does it all paint a wonderfully atmospheric fantasy world, it also introduced me to a lot of artists I might have missed otherwise. Great album. Favorite track: Upon a Hill, Fairy Folk Are Gathering.

drlemons Really great album and zine. I'm new to the dungeon synth scene, and this is such a great sampler plate of what makes the genre so good + a lot of RPG goodness attached. Favorite track: Upon a Hill, Fairy Folk Are Gathering.

Keighn AWESOME! Also downloaded and linked with no problem.

about

At last! The sequel to the original OSR adventure-gaming tapezine--once foretold, now loose upon the Earth. This release features selections from talented and inventive tuneweavers totaling to nearly 90 minutes of unrepentant fantasy audio triumph.
The companion magazine has been massively expanded from our first release, featuring a veritable bounty of quest-ready concoctions, is yours with purchase of the compilation.

CANDLE II boasts victory over the night, offering a kick-ass original character class, an all-new system of alignment roleplaying determined by the stars, a dungeon crawl packed with nautical haunts and salty spooks, an interview with the one and only Luka Rejec, a feature from Reddit and dungeon synth legend Kaptain Carbon, and plenty more than that.

Additionally, a limited run cassette tape/zine combo set will be available only while supplies last--subsequent re-releases are always on the table. Most of our physical copies were claimed via our Kickstarter, but there damn well oughtta be more coming down the pipeline!
If you seek the light of the CANDLE, you shall find it.
