Is this that "doom metal intros - the genre" genre?
Jaxson Gutierrez
vsac
Connor Morris
that sounds interesting
Jeremiah Perez
Jack Ramirez
Do you have a download link please ?
Levi Johnson
Justin Bennett
Ok, it's slow-ass dungeon synth with cheesy "djjwwwooooooaaaaammmmm" effects.
it's ok
Juan Gomez
reminder that Tangerine Dream invented dungeon synth and that any dungeon synth fan ought to watch The Keep.
Henry Phillips
I always thought it was called "cold synths".
I have to admit that cold climates are invariably tied to synths in my mind.
youtube.com
But to say it's better than dungeon synth is kind of silly. It's two different vibes. Dungeon synth can have very melodic structures, whereas winter synth appears to be a very ambient-heavy feeling.
Nathaniel Jones
why isn't there more industrial dungeon synth like Ice Ages out there?
I know that some people classify it as darkwave but seriously. Listen to this.
youtube.com
Tell me you don't feel the dungeon atmosphere.
It's a very niche but very strong concept and I want more of it.
Aaron Brooks
>reminder that Tangerine Dream invented dungeon synth
I'm not familiar with the breadth of Tangerine Dream's work, but I would argue that Mort Garson effectively made dungeon synth (or maybe proto-dungeon synth) as early as 1971.
Jaxon Lopez
How do you guys feel about dungeon hop?
Lincoln Richardson
that's pretty cool
Elijah Morales
terrible concept, remove it at once
the closest you could wring out of it would be a liturgic chant with cheesy synths.
Brody Gutierrez
I don't know if you know him from Plantasia, but he also released two albums of what amounts to "occult synth" as Lucifer and Ataraxia.
He essentially presaged both dungeon synth and horror synth.
Anthony Bell
>the closest you could wring out of it would be a liturgic chant with cheesy synths.
Did you actually listen to either?
NONE OF THIS IS REAL is pretty dope man, track 34 is fantastic.
I might be biased because it blends a lot of niche styles I always thought had an undercurrent of similar mindsets, but its worth a shot (even though there is very little in the "genre", as it were).
Joseph White
Dungeon Beats would be much better without the pseudo-rapping. Totally killed the project for me.
Christopher Bennett
>Dungeon Beats would be much better without the pseudo-rapping
I feel you, it would be nice if they released just the instrumentals. I get what they're going for, but it rarely meshes as well as they want it to.
Nicholas Smith
Anyone else think it would be good of you replaced the rapping with Satanic gospel music
Lucas Bell
it's only good when it doesn't have rapping or hip-hop beats.
Honestly it sounds more like vaporwave-based hip-hop.
And speaking of vapor, there's a lot more potential in combining vaporwave and dungeon synth than in dungeon-hop.
Landon Turner
Practically all hip-hop would sound better if you replaced the rapping with something else.
Jackson Martin
Dungeonwave, that would be pretty cool.
Joshua Watson
Yeah I'm experimenting with Strawberry Switchblade samples it's got a good sound, the only issue is you gotta do some pitch-shifting here and there to turn your major key samples into minor key spooky shit.
Michael Morris
>lordlovidicus.bandcamp.com
Holy fucking shit this is great, it's like playing Daggerfall for the first time.
Brayden Wood
>or hip-hop beats.
This is where you're pretty wrong, man. There's nothing wrong with the beats.
It doesn't really sound like vaporwave to me for the most of it.
But to each his own, I suppose.
This sounds neat. I've been making shit out of looped 70s horror movie samples and adding sparse percussion, you could probably do something similar with 70s/80s fantasy movies.
Since some of Laserdisc Visions was made out of NiGHTs, there's nothing stopping people from sampling old fantasy adventure games either.
Grayson Moore
Yeah I'm currently trying to pick out good samples from 80s horror OVAs but most of the time they're so perfect on their own that I don't have the courage to try and make something different out of them.
Thomas Hill
reminds me of various fantasy video games
also a much more relaxed version of Summoning's work
if you haven't listened to them, definitely check them out
Christopher Evans
taking Europe back when?
Jordan Stewart
>Not just building castles in the arctic circle, endlessly playing your synth knowing full well that no one will ever tread your frozen wasteland.
Jordan Johnson
What vidya go well with dungeon synth (and black metal) apart from the elder scrolls games
Brayden Diaz
Anything old and ASCII based. Zork, Rogue, etc.
Speaking of Rogue, does anyone else like the NONE OF THIS IS REAL tapes? It has a lot of DS interludes.
Justin Stewart
Dorf Fort
Jonathan Hughes
Been listening since the one user posted them up here. Some great stuff and great sampling.
Logan Morales
Wizardry, but have fun trying to actually play that shit.
Runescape, Gauntlet, Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights.
Basically any fantasy-based CRPG and/or roguelike.
I also managed to wring fun out of Skyrim by blasting black metal and playing as a viking.
I mentioned it earlier as an example of dungeon hop.
Brayden Richardson
>search dungeon synth wall
>listenn to the albums there, there are full samples of every song of every album listed there
this means I can cut the midle man and easily try everything there and the save on my backlog the good stuff?
Elijah Price
Strong runescape vibes from this. I am digging it
Ethan Howard
Might & Magic, legend of grimrock
Matthew James
I produce DS and lately i've been meaning to mix it up with some other types of electronic music. What genres would work well for that?
Noah Morgan
I like it!
Cameron Foster
this has been the nerdiest thread in days. I dig most of this though
