I think that's a good idea. That way we can start getting the content up while waiting for the missing review.

I do so in a moment. I am putting my son to bed.

Now it's on. Please alert the facebooks and all your friends. neathtorchlight.tumblr.com/ 
I will post them day by day by the order they where pulled from the hat. If anyone knows how to embed the bandcamp player share thing inside a post please tell me. I did just manage to post them as separated posts. 

Hey, good looking site! I also am a little strapped on time and have a lot on my plate right now, but if for some reason you can't post a review, just pm me and I could do it for you. 

But yeah, great job on this. I'm excited to read them all as they come.

New review is great! I love getting to see artists review each other! It's an interesting and welcome perspective!

Hello everyone! I owe you all a sincere apology for not making the deadline. I am terribly sorry I didn't even manage to inform people here. I just had some... problems going on in my life and couldn't bring myself to keep up with the contacts and forums I'm active. But things are a little bit more on track now in my life, so I'll try to finish up the review in the coming 3-4 days. If I again don't post anything, just be sure to contact me through facebook, which is where I will certainly get a notification. Again, I'm truly sorry I didn't finish this on time! I will be working on it!

I see one will be posted on the page every day, which borrows me some timw to make things up, if I'm not mistaken?

Okie dokie, I shared it on my artist facebook page. Should I share it with the Dungeon Synth Facebook grouo, as well?

I don't see why not! It would really help to get the word out!

I just finished up my review. I didn't know in what format to send it so I sent it as word document. If that's wrong just ask me to send it as text or whatever other format. I must say I really enjoyed doing this, even though I'm late to the party (apologies again). We should keep this up, this is a good way to enhance the DS community.

No need for apologies. No one got hurt by this. Glad you made it. Yes we need to keep this up. I will keep posting one per day until we are all up. Also I do not consider this blog my own...  my love my precious. So everyone who are in on this please come witch suggestions and opinions.

All right . I don't really know much about blogs, but for now it looks good to me this way. Maybe we could do something like ''album of the week'' or of the month or something along those lines? Just to keep the blog a bit lively even if there's no new reviews coming up. And with that I mean not an album released that week or month, just one to set in the spotlights.

Oh wow, such a nice review that I got, I hope mine is on par with Nahadoth's. Quite frankly, the blog looks fantastic and I don't think that it needs to change anything visually. I'm just wondering, what's next for the blog after these round of reviews are published?

I think we could do an album of the month, as suggested by crypticdungeon. Maybe all of us that are involved with this blog choose our favorite 3 (or 5 or whatever) albums that came out in the month, and we count the three most picked and do something with it.

By the way, congratulations! You did a great job! And I'm assuming it's you who are doing all the text formatting, text links and adding the images. Awesome stuff!

I actually meant just any album that's the spotlight album of the month, like a classic album or a hidden gem. Not exclusively one released in that month. But that could also work. Or both, like:
Album of the month; Lord Lovidicus - Book of Lore Vol. I
Newcomer of the month; Snarling Clearing - Tower
Something along those lines. And then each followed by a short piece describing the music on the album and the reason why it's in the spotlights.
I'll be willing to try and contribute those articles if need be!

EDIT: The spotlight of the month could be posted in week 1 of the month and the newcomer in week 3, to keep the blog as lively as possible.

EDIT 2: We could install a team of contributors to ensure that at least 1 review is posted per week. So if we have 4 contributors, that would mean 1 per month (per reviewer), and if we would have 8 contributors we could do 2 reviews a week. This plus the spotlight and newcomer of the month idea should keep the blog running for a while, if contributors are active enough. I will try my best to be helping out on this.

[olofdigre]

Yes this sounds all good. Also we could do another round if more would like to sign up. This works just fine i think. It looks good and everybody have done a truly great job.

[olofdigre]

Also. When we have no more material from this first round (we need to do another) we shall do a post recommending other blogs dungeoneering. We got this from archaic tridad:
archaictriad.com/2017/06/15/neath-torchlight-tumblr/

And we should pay back.

And then there is resoundingfootsteps.wordpress.com and so on.

[olofdigre]

Now we have gone full circle. Now what? I say we do another round.
