your cassettes look amazing, the cassette for bellow is one of my favorites in my collection. i started collecting and listening to cassettes because the art for DS albums looks so cool. the art on bellow was one of the main ones that made me want to start collecting.

Thanks for doing this, man! Really enjoyed it. Just so I can understand the musical lexicon a bit more, how would people name the layers? Is the first layer the chord progression, and then the next the main melody, and the third a counter melody, or an ostinato? Just curious, trying to improve my overall understanding of music. I know, ultimately, it's really just about what sounds good. Anyways, I'm off to work on my own dungeon synth attempts! Keep it up, Bolty

thank you for the good brain scritches and for helping me get through yet another D&D prep session as a new dm <3

Commenting for the algorithm, but also to say that I really love the music and ambience. Perfect ambience for writing and prepping TTRPG games!

Engaging of the ment

Thus begins my journey through your fantastical feat. I can't wait to write and edit to this.

Recently jumped into my own creative pool that I've been too scared to "show" for however many years, to compare to your "finishing" analogy. Thank you for this vulnerable insight into your process.

Hello TH-cam algorithm! Posting for that engagement checkmark.

Cheers to Nick's wife for encouraging you to share with us

Sounds extremely similar to "Our Journey's End, Pts 1-4" by Controlled Bleeding (1996).

I require these sounds to compel me through my rigors. I am currently friendless. I am a widower. I crave quiet. I need help. Thank you.

I was looking for something to play during our Rime of the Frostmaiden campaign. This is excellent. So good. Thank you so much!

I'm autistic but also newly married and by default the dad to a 7 year old. I listen to your music when I go to sleep. I climb to your music. I lift to your music. I work to your music. I illustrate to your music. You have literally built the soundtrack to my life and I am so god damn grateful for you.

Upon seeing this video I loudly exclaimed "Oh my god!" Thanks so much for making this and sharing your insight! *edit* Thanks for taking and answering my questions 🖤 I meant no offense but was projecting my own difficulties and seeking shared experience

thank you for finding me.

Thank you for giving us a peek into your creative process. I love your music and it's pretty awesome you gave us an idea of how you concoct a brew while having a chill chat. Looking forward to the one about the visuals.

17:43 Chorus of angels all getting their tracheas stomped simultaneously: AAAAUGH! The Witch Bolt: You... no, yuck.

Mythic subfeed pull

What game is this it looks familiar?

Thanks so much for posting this. I enjoy your work very much and I’m happy to see a real artist at work and not someone shilling AI junk. Maybe another videos about the creation of your album art? That art is what drew me in the beginning. Thank you!

This is simply amazing, and I keep coming back to it more and more often. Why aren’t there T-shirts with prints on both sides???????

Thanks for the vibes

Love your stuff dude! Big fan!

I realy like your content

Very interesting video to watch, thanks for sharing! You've got talent and I agree with you that it is difficult to find music like yours, so please make more! About what you said about nobody noticing the small details that you obsess about, I for one appreciate how polished your music is. The way I see it, music mainly affects us subconsciously, which is why such details can make a massive impact on how people perceive the music. I think people kind of feel the difference it makes even if they are not able to pinpoint exactly what aspect in the music causes it to feel so nice. So.. yeah, maybe people don't notice it in such a way which enables them to express appreciation for it, but I don't think they have to notice it in such a way for them to enjoy it. So in the end it is a balancing act between quality and quantity and I think you are very close to the sweet spot <3

I just recently found your music - you deserve all the praise, man! Thank you for sharing your creative process! Always good to hear stuff about composing process, different from mine in particular - I never had troubles finishing stuff, rather starting and then thinking too much about sound design. I barely finish one part, start layering (I tend to not do much here, like 3 layers at max) and then hearing annoying resonances and start EQing them. Another thing is kinda troublesome to me are transitions from one part to another. Sometimes it take me really a while to come up with suitable part. Also - Francis Roberts mentioned! he is the guy who inspired me to try writing music and dungeon synth in particular, and I send him a few track for a review - his tips were really useful. I second on his channel recommendation.

your music is amazin :D

Thanks for putting this together! Super interesting and inspiring as someone wanting to get into making dungeon synth. I've listened to your music for all my writing sessions of my most recent fantasy book.

Never listened to much dungeon synth, but your music is just perfect for when I write and the artwork is gorgeous. Thank you for talking about your process!

Your music is very honest. Listeners can sense how much it means to you and we respond accordingly.

thank you for sharing! i make dark ambient/dungeon/creepy synth music myself and i break your rule of threes all the time, oop-- but i try to either work it into a drone or keep it interesting with samples/found audio. a little bit of a different process (still use Garage Band, on my ipad though), but i'm gonna try taking some of your helpful advice and try out a few different things next time i write a track!

i love your music

Cool to see another GB user! It's kind of the perfect sized DAW for DS. Add just a few free plugins for polish and you can make some pretty cool stuff without too much fiddling. Cheers! PS also really interesting to see how similar your approach is here with the expanded lore. Looking forward to seeing more of the story unravel!

From the artwork, to the naming to the music itself. 10/10

What's the game in the background footage.

Awesome video! TH-cam just put you on my radar, and im glad for it. Its always interesting to see how different artists approach the creative process so thanks for sharing yours ⚔️

Thanks so much for this video! Super interesting, especially because I vibe with your aesthetic SO MUCH!

I stepped beyond the glow of the campfire and beheld - the dungeon.

This is such a great video. I love the music and the approach. There are so many analogues between our paths.

Been listening to Bellow and Howl while playing Baldur's Gate 3. Good stuff.

Goodly Witch Bolt. Thy wondrous tunes doth transport mine soul to enchanted realms. Pray, continue weaving thy harmonious sorcery. May thy goblets overflow with inspiration. Eternal thanks ! 🏰✨

God dude, I love your artstyle. Thanks for sharing this stuff with us!

Wonderful

Sublime. Simply sublime.

Really great to see your process, thanks for sharing!

Great stuff.

I’m reading dying earth and the soundtrack just fits so well
