This is my first DS release!
The Scoundrel And Shield was created as a test run for the upcoming Equinox Challenge that I posted about [here] (https://dungeonsynth.proboards.com/thread/1085/open-challenge-equinox-rush-march)
Here are the parameters I rolled for this test run:
Theme: "An adventurer's room at the Scoundrel and Shield inn, in the dwarven city of Ljartibyr, in a nearby kingdom". As I worked on the songs I concocted a loose narrative to go along with them about the adventurer who arrives in town, stays at the inn, and is mind-controlled by nefarious powers causing him to assassinate the king.
Days: I rolled a 10 so I had 10 days to complete this.
Instruments: I rolled a 1. Then for fun I rolled on a random table of softsynths and other instruments I own, and landed on the bx oberhausen that I just bought on Black Friday. So everything you hear on this album is the oberhausen. It was fun to get to know it a little.
Tracks: I rolled a 5 so there was a comfortable amount of tracks to work with in the DAW.
Songs: I rolled an 8 which was the maximum.
Length: I rolled a range from 13 to 24 minutes. so I aimed for 3 minute long songs.
Overall I'm happy with the result, it was a fun challenge and a nice motivator to get something finished and released. I hope somebody enjoys it.

Way to go bartizanier , used code cggn-6cm7 !! Had a good laugh already with the title "God-Damned Dragon", lol nice one haha Also, nice to see a story set up thing but that "baseball" word broke the immersion, although it could be intentional in accordance with the title used on that song (I mean in a being intentionally non very sel-serious in a good way that is ).. (<== hope I expressed what I'm thinking correctly!!) ! Regards and I'll get back to you hopefully sometime soon (sometimes I feel after catching up that my digital downloads folder if it were actuals CDs for example would be a hill of them in a room ) !

Hey! I think you pretty much nailed it - there is for sure a whimsical side to the project (and everything I do - I can't help myself). The mention of the baseball connects this story to our mundane world in a somewhat jarring way. Thanks for checking it out.

I really liked this album! The atmosphere is fascinating in its beauty. Partially reminded of the work from the Voldsom Tapes label.

what kind of picture is depicted on the album cover? Hey, thanks! Im somewhat embarassed to say the art is from an AI generator. It was made about six months ago with an older iteration that I think was better at creating these weird, abstract "painting" looking images, and I've been meaning to use it since then.
