      I wouldn't call this dungeon synth at all, more like progressive electronic - though I guess the two genres are very much interwoven. Sounds like something Manuel Göttsching might've done with his band Ash Ra Tempel, it particularly reminds me of their first, self-titled album, or Tangerine Dream's debut or Kraftwerk's first two albums... Klaus Schulze would've dug it too xD

    I love how the Riders of Rohan look, very sombre and gloomy, yet intimidating. However that one guy's horse over on the left is a different kind of intimidating! And mister 4 fingers in the center of the frame, likely Théoden or Éomer (depending on the time), should be wearing gloves.

    This is just fucking superb! Great job, man! I'm really exciting to see such mood and athmosphere. It fits very vell. You just can feel the tension and foreboding of coming dark in faces of heroes. Without a inappropriate emotions or such (can't explain well, hah )

  • @jaywatanabe4706
    @jaywatanabe4706 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    Love this aesthetic. I actually think the 80’s fantasy moodiness fits the LOTR much better than the CGI infused overload of the 2000’s. It’s how I imagine a post-Legend Ridley Scott would have done it

    Imagine if someone animated all these images and concepts into a movie and used the audio of the jackson films just changing the audio quality. I think it be too much of a daunthing task for anyone today but imagine in the future with better technology if it'd be possible. I'd love to watch a 80s styled lord of the rings with what looks like practical effects.
