Donation:
Ever since we started the VOICES FROM THE DARKSIDE online version back in 2000, we always refused offers from labels that wanted to book ad space / banners of any kind. We wanted the site to remain completely ad free and we will definitely continue to do so in the future as well.

But due to the fact that technology marches on we had to go for a completely new software in order to be able to continue on. Otherwise VOICES FROM THE DARKSIDE would definitely have been history in early 2020.

Our goal was to come up with a new version that still has all the old features and a layout as close to the old version as possible. And if you check out the result, I think we pretty much succeeded in all that, thanks to the incredible help of Andi Bauer, who made it all happen and all the dedicated longtime readers which donated to the whole project!
