Metal Academy Radio Playlist Suggestions - The Guardians Edition
With Xephyr having stepped down from major activity in the site and none of the other Guardians members seeming to be up to taking over The Guardians playlist (based on no response), I decided to step in with Daniel's approval and allowing me to be a collaborator, at least for now until we can find a Guardians member who can manage the playlist full-time. I also included all the unused submissions from January and February in the half-a-month-late March playlist, so consider it a special suggestions-filled playlist. For future playlists though, I'd like to note a few things. I'll still do the usual monthly schedule, so I can release new playlists on April, May, June etc., because I enjoy making the playlists and have a lot of time in my hands, and I want to keep those playlists active in the uncommon chance of attracting new listeners of these genres. Though I might skip a month or a few if I end up busy in the outside world with a job or a college course like when I had that break a couple years ago. Contributions are always welcome, but the one track per non-clan member rule still stands for the sake of the playlist's legitimacy, though if you send me two or 3 submissions that are all by bands I'm familiar with and enjoy, I can accept them all. While the recommended deadline is the 15th of each month, I'm flexible enough to allow one submission after that date. The maximum deadline is the second-to-last day of the month (clarified in the deadline list below), so I can have time in the last day of the month to finalize the playlist and get it ready for when a new month dawns. If anyone has comments about this, please let me know here or PM me. Let's hope the playlists can stay alive!
Deadlines for next few months' playlists after the April one:
May playlist: recommended - April 15, maximum - April 29
June playlist: recommended - May 15, maximum - May 30
July playlist: recommended - June 15, maximum - June 29
And so on, until a new Guardians member wants to take control of the playlist.
Here's my sneak peek submission for the May Guardians playlist:
Neurotech - "The Ophidian Symphony" (from Symphonies, 2016)
