Since then, the label has never stopped considering <strong>dungeon-synth as the optimal soundtrack for role-playing sessions, adventure video games, and fantasy board games<\/strong>. Perhaps some liked this idea, others did not&#8230; but it does not matter now: we would like to emphasize that HDK&#8230; invented nothing new!  <\/p>\n<p>A few years before <em>Kobold<\/em>&#8216;s &#8220;<em>Cave of the Lost Talisman<\/em>,&#8221; in fact, a musician from Palm Spring, California, named <em><strong>Dan J. Schulte<\/strong><\/em>, self-produced a handful of albums of ambient music explicitly inspired by old Dungeons &amp; Dragons adventure modules: in the three albums that make up his &#8220;<em>Dungeon Trilogy<\/em>,&#8221; each track has the title of a super-classic module dating back to <em>Gary Gygax<\/em> &#8216;s glorious early TSR production (late 1970s, early 1980s).<\/p>\n<h3>Shadow of the Underworld: Dan J.
