Soon there will also be physical releases of most my albums.

[nazgaldracul]

The live album from my live stream performance yesterday is now out and can be found here nazgaldracul.bandcamp.com/album/live-stream-22042017 . there is also the video that can be found here www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wEZywoKDVk

I am also recording a new album which will be recorded using a tascam porta02 four track cassette recorder and a really cheap keyboard I got for 40 bucks. It will be very lo fi and not a part of the main story. When it comes to the lore I am currently planning a new album and writing a fighting fantasy style gamebook to go along with it. I will give further updates on that when it is nearing completion.

Other than that there will very soon be physical releases of my three first albums in very limited quantities. They will be sold on bandcamp and all are numbered and signed.

Man, this all sounds amazing! I really love the idea of DS artists releasing more live albums! I also think the idea of releasing game books along with albums is really awesome! I look forward to all of these releases with bated breath!

Thanks, really appreciate it!

Also I am vey soon coming out with a mini album recorded on a tascam 4track cassette recorder and a cheap keyboard, no tie ins with the main lore of nazgal, but i think it is a good release and I hope you will all enjoy it.

[nazgaldracul]

Two new releases today Of the very old school variety. Both are recorded on a Tascam Porta2 mkII 4 track cassette recorder.

The first one is called The Tomb of Galrakh. It was recorded using a cheap gear4music keyboard.

The second one is called Primitive Warfare and is indeed primitive. It was recorded using this keyboard: www.ebay.com/itm/KIDS-ELECTRONIC-PIANO-KEYBOARD-ORGAN-EDUCATION-MUSICAL-TOY-FESTIVAL-GIFT-Pink-SM/302017808475?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 that I recorded using a shure sm58 microphone

Utmärkt. Det du gjorde med kassettportan är helt inspirerande bra. Jag har just kommit över en porta själv men en som går utan kassett tyvärr. Den är i nästa kommun och jag kommer få den till mig nästa vecka. Din nya skiva gör att väntan blir olidlig. Mycket bra musik har du gjort. Skulle du inte vilja vara med i nästa runda av neath torchlight?

Jo takker så meget, er svært fornøyd med resultatet selv. Og jeg kunne godt ville være med på neste runde av neath torchlight.

I really had some good time listening to your new releases, espacially "The Tomb of Galrakh", it took me to distant places.

[setfiretostrawmen]

Hey man, I'm really enjoying The Tomb of Galrakh at the moment. I personally gravitate to this old school sound.

nazgaldracul , great couple of releases. Really achieved a nostalgic sound in Tomb. I think it could use some more compositional variation within the songs. Each song kind of plays off of its one theme until it ends. The release is enjoyable nonetheless, but since the sounds are so classic, it made me want to hear some more diversity in the composition to hear more of the atmospheric potential those sounds have. Warfare was a fun little EP. That keyboard has such few keys, but you still pulled some kool melodies out of it. I like how the layering creates some dissonance at times due to the imperfection of the keyboard tones.

I must confess that these releases were mostly recorded to test the hardware. Now that I got that aspect under control you can expect some great releases with a very naturally old school sound. And the toy keyboard on warfare was indeed a fun little affair. I think I've already more or less exhausted its possibilities, but the cheapness of it made for a very interesting sound I think, especially with it at times dropping out of tune.
