Sound: on 🔊
Page - The Way Home - Cassettes available Next Friday, September 6th
Page's debut brings us some delightful medieval fantasy tunes. Crafted entirely using soundfonts ripped from those multitimbral sound modules we only wished we had access to in the days of DOS gaming.
Despite the low-bit cover artwork, Page's music is actually quite a symphonic effort.
Dedicated to the lost art of text adventure and point & click games.
For fans of Fief, early, DIM, Estoc, etc.

Spellbound Mire - Spellbound Mire
Every once and a while, I receive a demo that really blows me away. This upcoming artist from Australia takes notes from Quest Master, Hedge Wizard and other like minded dungeon synth musicians while bringing something new to the table.
While the digital album has not yet been released, turn on the sound for a sampling of a few tracks.
Limited at 100 copies for this first pressing!

Available October 15th, one of five new tapes.
Hexelwir - Manifestation of Forgotten Souls
What seems to be a somewhat overlooked album of 2019, Hexelwir's "Manifestations" is an album that I was excited to stumble upon one solitary evening, which developed into a regular rotation.
Hexelwir envisions a dark monastic kingdom of mysteries. An album steeped in brilliant variation, encompassing a passion for dungeon synth of the old ways. At 55 minutes, the listener will weave through high fantasy medieval arias and tortured cemetery strolls.
Pro-dubbed on a lovely bronze cassette.

Coming Friday, August 6th
Sad Forest - The Winter Ghost
Sad Forest leads the you through an oppressively melancholic winter. Uncut and pure, The Winter Ghost is ever present, even for those who wish to wander alone.
One of many new hot items coming August 6th... beware!

Spell of Unseeing - Weaving Light and Shadow
Spell of Unseeing was quietly released in Summer of 2020 as an anonymous side project of Tim Rowland (Hole Dweller, Bellkeeper).
An organic departure from his typical percussive style dungeon synth - Spell of Unseeing evokes a dark nostalgic emotion by use of warm synth pads and crystalline leads.
Featured on the Dungeons Deep Records cassette is the exclusive bonus track recorded in 2021: Druidic Wisdom.

Realms in Exile - Himring
You arrive at a great oak door. You know beyond this door you will meet a dizzying stone staircase that plummets for hundreds of miles into the abyss of an ancient dwarven mine. As you press your ear to the keyhole, you can faintly hear muffled music playing in the forges below...
Realms in Exile comes from the mysterious unnamed figure behind Crag Forge, Fog Castle, and more. Epic dark Tolkien themed ambient cast in dark caves.
More news to come.
Listen alone...
