This week it was lots of Halm and the new Aindulmedir. Halm does exactly the kind of engrossing sound design I love, really creates a space that feels raw, organic, and massive. Epic in a non-cheesy way. New Aindulmedir is, as has been reported by many others, excellent. It seems a lot of others felt like Winter Scriptures fell off a bit and that this new one is a return to form of the debut. I think that's about the way I feel too, but I've only just begun listening.

Frost Clad -The Bastion of Pineswww.youtube.com/watch?v=BkDyoi-eFUw&t=177sNice album, reminds me of Ways of Yore, with the spoken word. Thematically partially Algernon Blackwood inspired, nature worship. Perfect 'thinking music', the flute melodies are really beautiful.

I've been listening to the new Aura Merlin album for two days straight now. The first release, EP from last year was already really good but this one's on whole new level. Great atmosphere, sound design and songcraft.

Forlorn Kingdom's Northern Spirits Call From Afar, combining two demos onto one cd (or digital album for those that prefer...or it's even available on vinyl). It seems like this is the way he wants it, as all of his older demos are gone now (such as Walking the Paths of Old, one of the demos included) and it's just the three compilation albums now on his Bandcamp page. He's kind of hard to peg with his style, so I just say he's "good music", really.

I'm listening a mix of Hole Dweller stuff, very much known for his quality outputs, somewhere along DS and comfy, great stuff, thankfully with the recognition it deserves in the DS circles One of my fav of his songs is this one, excellent stuff,really giving that warm feeling of a distant memory .. :

Chanterelle "Season of Mists" chanterelle.bandcamp.com/album/season-of-mistsThis wasn't as hyped as I thought it might be, but was one of my favorites of last year. Pretty minimalist compared to Earthly Delights. Even though it was a favorite, I haven't worn it out yet. This is the kind of DS I want to make.

Trad DS with layered synth. Very much enjoying it.

I've really been loving Dragon Citadel Elegies by Old Sorcery, especially "The Inn on the Borderland". Such a great combination of epic and catchy! The Inn on the Borderland

I just found out about Hole Dweller and fell in love instantly: As someone who devotedly plays Lord of the Rings Online, I got so stupidly happy to see all the in-game references as track names. Went ahead and followed the artists on Instagram, and was delighted to discover about Jamwine Hamfiddle the hobbit. I feel the inclination to ask what server he plays XD Would love to grab an ale with him on my own halfling!

I've been on a bit of a Hole Dweller kick this week as well
Just before I'd been binging Hideous Gomphidius without knowing that they were just about to release a box set of all the Gomphib albums through Taste of Beers that came out today -- looks awesome!
