Hi there, thanks for all the interest & kind words :) For those asking about where they can get the album etc; I've uploaded this to Bandcamp just now if you'd like to support me (see description), I've no plans currently to do physical copies although I may look at this in the future. Currently just working on some new music when time allows so stay tuned.
How did you make this music? VSTs? Real Instruments? Hardware Effects? Would like to buy a LP in future of your stuff, to sample it in my mpc. Keep it up
You should send this in to some labels. This is seriously some of the best fantasy synth I've heard in a while. I'd recommend making an Instagram account and sending it to labels there. Cheers!!!
Funny that you say so! I was walking the forest with this on the ear, and i found an abaondoned cabin filled w8th alot of 90's tech. Balancing through the forest with my ikeabags filled with the scavenged stuff, with this music, was epic! The music aligned perfectly to every little move and hiccup as well! ⚡💯⚛️
Few dungeon synth albums reach this level of composition and sound experimentation (IMHO). I was a bit bored of this genre... what a breath of fresh air!
This got recommended to me because I listened to Might & Magic III soundtrack (MT-32). Figured that if I leave a comment here, the algorithm will boost the video
@@sothis1448 this is the kind of opinion that stops music from evolving, fanbases from growing and people from enjoying things. who cares what "true dungeon synth" is!!
@@itsBOUBAKA What you don't understand is that the genre already peaked and has not evolved past the year 2000, this here is imitation music, nothing special.
On the couch with a NES controller in the hand, VHS tape from Blockbuster on the counter and a good day ahead.... Nostalgia is a helluva druuuuuuug 😂 Awesome stuff!
I love dark, martial dungeon synth as much as the next gal, but I'm ENCHANTED to find something so different-- it's etheral, otherworldly & kinda unsettling. What a gem! What an absolute treasure.
the opening IS excellent, and I dig the minimalism of these first tracks, and the 8 bit influence. So far this is one of the top dungeon albums I have heard, not that I have heard tons.
"From a dream awoken" is excellent, a great start to the album. I am enjoying writing as I listen to this. As far as Dungeon Synth I've come across lately, I like the fact your music is more melodic than strictly ambient/atmospheric. Great stuff!
Upon hearing this I was swept back to the late 1970's and early 80's as it's so much like the soundtracks of scifi TV shows as well as being great atmospheric music for OSR games like D&D. 👍 Thanks for giving me the slice of memory
I came by accident here but what a surprise! Your music/melodies, and synth sounds are from another world. I play for 30 years with analog synths and althrough the sounds are digital no one knows it if you don't know it. And in fact it doesnt matter your sound is so "special" like from outer space :-) I just bought your album on bandcamp and gave a little bit extra cause this sounds so refreshing. Keep on going. Regards from Belgium ;-)
Okay man i lost it in ,,In the Court of the Count" this stuff is just next level, you truly outdone yourself. I have listened to enough Dungeon Synth to know that yours is just special. Placing this album in my top tier list. Thank you for your wisdom wizard!
Amazing work! Reminds me of so many things. Old games, old life back in the 90s/early 2000s, Magic and mysticism! Really evokes a bunch of awesome feelings!
I'm so glad I came across your music ! Your album has so many unique sounds and ambiences, the melodies really speaks to me. I feel like It's a mix of so many great influences from Nobuo Uematsu to even Karlheinz Stockhausen or some old electronic music ! Keep it up !
I clicked on this album thinking it wouldn't be anything special. Thanks for making a fool of me. The album was a blast. Reminds me of Quest Master, one of my favorites! Which this now gets to be next to!
Now this is something different in a generally more or less stagnant genre where most play a couple of ambient pads and call it a day. This focuses more heavily on the "synth" part and you can actually hear some synthesis going on instead of plain old presets. I really enjoyed the sounds and the tunes. Do i hear some Kirkwood vibes here and there as well? Great work, keep it up!
man if you composed these your really on to somethingXD this is verry similar to a lot of the supper nostalgic things people really like about old games. keep this up my dude

@@TheOriginalStriker This was done with Ableton stock/M4L synths/plugins mostly. Some third party tape/reverb effects etc as well.
:)
@@slefnwald1845 Nice thanks for the answer
im going to cut off one of my fingers to this album

This sounds like being 5 and watching my Nana play a King's Quest game on her huge 90s PC...
Damn now I feel old as hell.
This goes so hard, like a wizard wandering an abandoned 1990s shopping mall

This comment kicks ass

That's a great way to put it! Thanks!
@@simengeorg that sounds like such an interesting thing to explore
This opening is excellent
Thank you... big fan of your work :)
@@slefnwald1845 Thanks! Your album really has a distinct atmosphere & nice melodies
YOOOO ERANG
getting compliments from Erang is like Rodger Federer complimenting your tennis skills. what a legend.
Doing uni chemistry work to this and feeling like a wizard's apprentice... Groovy beyond words
Best of luck, adept
@@slefnwald1845 Thank you! :D
mmm synth chills all up and down my spine, almost like wanting to cry except there's a dragon to slay and orb to retrieve

Definitely!

This is everything I'm looking for in dungeon synth. This is extremely good music. Well done Slefnwald, good form
You don't know true dungeon synth.

@@sothis1448 not even close you're just not paying attention. it's okay if you have shitty taste in music doesn't mean you have be a hater.
@@sothis1448 If that's imitation, then I want more of the same.
This is so lovely, I'm gonna listen to this while I plan my dnd sessions
Reminds me of some of Vangelis work (RIP)
The first song strikes a chord with me. Very good album.
I really like the dreamlike atmosphere of this album. Somehow it reminded me of my early childhood. I've already listened to it 4 times. Great work!!
My algorithm brings me back to this album multiple times a day. You're doing something right!
I've bought the album, it matched Perfectly to the universe Im developing for my RPG, and Im waiting for next releases!
Thank you :) Working on it
On the couch with a NES controller in the hand, VHS tape from Blockbuster on the counter and a good day ahead....
Nostalgia is a helluva druuuuuuug 😂
Awesome stuff!
This is fantastic and immaculate. It's like Plantasia but done by a dark wizard on a starry night (with all respect) it's breathtaking.
Never heard of Plantasia before but just had a brief listen and that is a 10/10 recommendation friend
this might be one of my favorite dungeon synth albums of all time

Thank you :) Just got around to setting one up, link is in the description
That art is more than it seems
The face of a hero is hidden in it
Otherworldy, cosmic and mystic compositions. Thank you. I'am going to use it for my next OSR campaign.
"From a dream awoken" is excellent, a great start to the album. I am enjoying writing as I listen to this. As far as Dungeon Synth I've come across lately, I like the fact your music is more melodic than strictly ambient/atmospheric. Great stuff!
One of my new favourite dungeon synth albums without a doubt. The Attack is absolutely amazing.
30 mins left on my graveyard shift listening to this. Would love to see physical copies one day, this is good stuff!

You should check out the album Automat (1978).
It so beautiful to me, brings tears to my eyes
makes me want to cry for some reason
I’ve been listening to this obsessively. It’s inspired a really fun creative project!
I like this. I am becoming a wizard soon. Wish me luck!
This is actually the first dungeon synth album I listened to, I love this
Click for cover, stay for music
Yeah I listen to a ton of dungeon synth and this is one of my favorites. Just bought it on Bandcamp and I encourage everyone else to do the same. 🤘🏻
This is truly incredible. I cannot believe how good this is.
I really like this.
I wouldn't change anything about this, it's that good.
I do a roleplaying session with friends several nights a week. This has become my go to album to play during that

@@slefnwald1845 🙂

Absolutely epic and so dreamy! This is what I’ve been searching for!
One of my new favorite ds albums
This is so authentically '70s in its sound, great work! Love me some warbly synths
Okay man i lost it in ,,In the Court of the Count" this stuff is just next level, you truly outdone yourself. I have listened to enough Dungeon Synth to know that yours is just special. Placing this album in my top tier list. Thank you for your wisdom wizard!
This is the best dungeon synth I have heard in a long time! That opening is an absolute masterpiece!
It brings back happier times.

Woah... this is amazing! The opener is stuck in my head
You poorsood.
It's like ltwninf to your own mild toothache.
So good! Moonlit reveries is gorgeous.
Thank you for your Work! Keep on going, almost seems like a new genre to me, has the old klaus Schulze Kontinuum vibes plus a gamboy vibe
Opening sounds as 80s series of tales. GREAT!
Amazing work! Reminds me of so many things. Old games, old life back in the 90s/early 2000s, Magic and mysticism! Really evokes a bunch of awesome feelings!
Reminds me of many of my favorite jrpgs from the PS1, Gamecube and Game Boy Advanced era. Love it!
it's so good that I don't want to listen to it at work. saving this one for later
very much like plantasia did in fact enjoy looking forward to future projects :)
Hmm, interesting! Very much has the feel of a 1990's era RPG soundtrack.
If you have anymore music, please upload it! This is so uplifting, subscribed!
Hi, glad you like it :) Working on something new when life permits
ça correspond bien aux styles D&D rpg très populaires, en premier cela m'a rappelé la trilogie Ishar, de silmarils.
I'm just in love
dude, let me tell you, i love this stuff, you must release another album with a related subject, I WILL LISTEN TO IT
Wow. Perfect for dwarf fortress. Thank you.
I'm so glad I came across your music ! Your album has so many unique sounds and ambiences, the melodies really speaks to me.
I feel like It's a mix of so many great influences from Nobuo Uematsu to even Karlheinz Stockhausen or some old electronic music !
Keep it up !
Love the vibe and the tape wobble madness. :) Great work. Thank you.
I clicked on this album thinking it wouldn't be anything special. Thanks for making a fool of me. The album was a blast. Reminds me of Quest Master, one of my favorites! Which this now gets to be next to!
Well, there ya go.
This reminds me of the album "Automat", and also the orginal Castlevania soundtrack.
Nice!!thank you!
Across Fen and Fell quite literally made me shiver, its amazing!
intro is very striking, almost so good i closed the album entirely
shockingly good album.
Love the melodies. Getting some Residents vibes from this. 👌
"The Attack" is just anxiety music, great job lol
Good work. Playing Ghosts and Goblins with this.
very cool stuff
The lake and its lady reminds me of the ambient works of whitearmor, really fantastic work
Infinite likes for this beautiful album.
Goes hard

Master piece ❤
Awww yeeaah, sounds like chrono trigger.
Dude, the attack is cracked out, really cool effects on that one.
Sick
This is really good! I can truly lose track of time listening to this! Outstanding work! 😁
The soundscape you create from 1:45 to 2:45 is absolutely haunting and beautiful
I'm stoned and I thought this was Seinfeld dungeon synth
Synthfeld?
man if you composed these your really on to somethingXD this is verry similar to a lot of the supper nostalgic things people really like about old games. keep this up my dude
This is a treat!
wow
Very different, I like it a lot
очень-очень круто
In the Court of the Count будто слышу саундтрек какому-то советскому фильму
I've never seen any old soviet films but I'm glad I captured something there for you :)
Thanks for this mate. Hits right
