Castles - Episode 8 - a podcast by Derek Jones

Our 8th episode is dedicated to Castle themes. The songs that play while you are in castles, kingdoms, palaces or fortresses of some kind. Castle themes are often majestic, intense and very powerful with driving rhythms and melodies. Sometimes when the good guys have the castle the melody will be driving and heroic or regal. When the castle is more of a dungeon it will sound intense, strong and carry a sense of dread. Come hear the tracks Matt and I picked out and tell us what your favorite is this time.
