Rhythm Encounter 42 – Evil Etudes

Love ’em or hate ’em, an RPG just isn’t the same without a good villain. And every good villain needs a good theme song. On this episode of Rhythm Encounter, we explore some choice themes for evil empires and the bad guys who run them. Take a walk on the dark side with us, and don’t forget to bring your doomsday weapon, ancient magic, or trained monster of choice!

Note: We had to re-number our episodes several years after publishing. This was originally Episode 30, as reflected in the audio. Don’t worry, you’re not missing anything!

Featuring: Caitlin Argyros, Marcos Gaspar, Peter Triezenberg
