eetings everyone! I'm happy to share with you all my first DS/Dark ambient project, that I released on bandcamp yesterday. As it is my first one, I'd be honored to hear what you guys think of it, any suggestions will be gladly received as well. I was going for something calm and meditative at first, thus the first track was born, the rest of the tracks seemed to live more, and I managed to put out two bards-in-a-tavern kinda deals there as well. Mainly I think the theme started forming around the word "Lovi" which is an tricky ancient Finnish word. We only know some of what it could mean, but only little evidence remains of it's use, but it's still used today although rarely. It deals with matters of otherworldlyness, or your spirit stuck in between worlds by a spell or by accident. A kind of state when the ancient and the present meet, and that's what I thought would reflect in the music as well; there are familiar sounds to it, but it also transports you to odd shadows with ancient whispers you don't quite understand. Lol, sorry for going on about that, I'll let the music do the talking, hope you guys enjoy! I'll share download codes here, so you can give it a listen, just comment below which one you used! You can claim them here: lovitar.bandcamp.com/yumpfag-jr8l jbzl-wnyf 6d2j-henm 3ajf-62s7 Lovi - The Caverns of lempo

I've used "6d2j-henm".
Gave your album a try this morning. I liked it. It's more on the light-hearted and dreamy side of DS. I will give it another spin later today and maybe come back with a bit more detailed feedback. ;-)

Man, excellent work Lovi, I liked it so much I ended up using code pfag-jr8l and adding it to my collection to keep it Slow, relaxing and soothing sound with a medieval vibe, I liked it from the first playthrough and already into 4-5th consecutive listen and none weakness found, excellent stuff man!! Keep us updated and please cook us some more

That was a delight, the first track was super meditative. Anybody notice that the Ultima V song is basically the riff from One by Metallica?

mahrgdidj to be honest somewhere along more than quite a few playthroughs of Lovi's album I noticed something reminding me of something.. And after some more rounds of playthroughs it came to me that it's One. But the funny now thing is I hadn't read the song's names while listening, so I kinda though well ok I'm open to interpretations but then I read your post here and get back and saw track titles to see it's Ultima V theme. And even more strange that while I own (since Ultima Collection (1-8) CD) it, and have played through 1-3 and some of 4 back in the 90s, Ultima 5 (as well as 6,8,9..) I never got to play it and just learned about it through all this Anyway great to learn always new stuff about beloved music and games ofc...

crystallogic13 Thank you so much bud! That's a relief to hear that what I've made handles multiple listens Means I'm doing something right. mahrgdidj I'm glad you enjoyed it! Meditative and improvisation is just something I really love, track 3 is also in the same vein, although much more simpler... always been a sucker for solo instrumentals myself And you're right, the Ultima tune has an identical start to that of Metallica's one, but they've been released the same year, Ultima a bit earlier if I remember right... so it's quite possible neither knew of the other. wulvire Much obliged! Thank you so much for your support, it really means the world to me! I'm trying to save up to a new sound library so I could make more kinda nordic tribal music, so every bit helps <3 Now, I've actually got good news for everyone, there's a new song of Lovi out, and you can listen to it on the Shadowlore Compilation seven.
