deadybones So excited to finally have a TutO cassette in the mail, these works are so lovely and atmospheric. I'm obsessed with the gentle ambience of these tracks, so much room for whimsy! Favorite track: Mushroom Cap Hut.

dfox7 Tales Under the Oak raises the bar with The Toad Folk. The short audio stories feel very special and go along way to evoking the atmosphere of the world this album takes place in. This album feels like it has a home in the world of the Toad Folk. When you slide it into the tape deck and hit that play button it all comes full circle making for a not to be missed listening experience.
Rating on a d20: 20 (critical success)

about

TALES UNDER THE OAK - The Toad Folk (DAP083)

Dark Age Productions is very pleased to present The Toad Folk, the latest chapter from the folkloric dungeon synth project TALES UNDER THE OAK. Featuring eight unique and memorable compositions along with four narrated short stories and a guest appearance by HOLE DWELLER. Combined with the masterful artwork of Barandash, The Toad Folk deepens the realm of the swamp kingdom!

"Dark winter's coming, little fellow
And every song is getting mellow
The folks are gathered round the hearth
To talk and think about their path

Before we see the light of day
The time is right to hear a tale
One tale or two: of winds and fires
To soothe adventurous desires
A tale of simple folks and kings,
Of ancient sorceries and rings
For every taste I'll find a word
About a bug, about a toad

Now listen, bog and dungeon dweller,
My name is Krogg the Storyteller
I’m waiting, friend, this is your turn
To choose a tale that keeps us warm"
