Hails Dungeon Keepers! I have been posting my own work in the dungeon synth facebook group for a bit, and I just now came across this forum. Great opportunity for some more shameless self-promotion eh? Thing is, I'm working on an album, and trying to ipmrove even more. Even though my latest EP has improved quite a bit from when I started out, I'm still nowhere near what I want to be. So I'll just post my new track here too, in hopes someone will give some feedback, either positive or negative. And if you're really into it, a comparison to earlier works might do well too..  So this is a single off of te album I'm working on: crypticdungeon.bandcamp.com/album/bloody-march-of-the-necromancerOn my bandcamp you can find other stuff too. Thanks! |

As Influenced by Tyrannus, here is another project I just started, named Vagor. More noisy influences here. It's like Dungeon Noise but not as much noise as aforementioned artist uses. More like really vintage DS with a crispy raw edge to it. Also looking forward to feedback on this one...  vagorsynth.bandcamp.com/releases |

Enjoying this a lot! Nicely done. I think this level of noise will be a lot more palatable for many people!

Yeah I'm still new to the noise stuff and although I do like it a lot to listen to, I have a feeling a bit more toned down noise is really where my composing comes out best. But I'll have to experiment some more of course! I'm still not where I want to be, skill-wise... |

I think we all view ourselves as in desperate need of improvement to some extent, haha. I've noticed that in the community often we can be pretty self-critical but we're always determined to improve

I would name it Noisy/Raw Dungeon Synth, rather than "Noise" as main genre. |

I would name it Noisy/Raw Dungeon Synth, rather than "Noise" as main genre. Yeah, as I said in the dungeon noise topic, my personal preference for dungeon synth/noise is like a 75/25 ratio. But I'm still experimenting Thanks for checking it out! |

Okay I've been experimenting way too much, but I've come up with a way to make some decent dungeon noise that's more of a 50/50 mix I guess. I will work this out, I feel like I'm on to something!
EDIT: If someone wants to listen to what I came up with, just message me. I'm new to the noise part so if anyone could tell me if what I'm doing is even relevant or worth listening to, that would be greatly appreciated...

I just uploaded a new demo Vagor demo to bandcamp: Chronicles of Izanoth I - Teth. This is the first of a series of releases I will dedicate to the imaginary plane of Izanoth. I will shape the music to the visions I see in my head when travelling to the various parts of that world. The music is a bit more noisy than what I first made, I experimented a bit with it. vagorsynth.bandcamp.com/album/chronicles-of-izanoth-i-tethI also wrote a small piece of text to go with it, I know I'm not a good writer but it was fun to kind of use my imagination on this one: ''Izanoth Izanoth is a world of fantasies. Landscapes so extraterrestrial, our known earth wouldn’t even come close to. Creatures and races far beyond our imagination roam the divided provinces of the plane of Izanoth: some humanoid, some not. Each of the provinces has their own view on magick, and their different beliefs in the arcane arts have even more so divided the land. An ancient war has made the world desolate. Where once great civilizations stood tall, now only small communities of descendants are left, barely managing to survive. In each of the Chronicles, I will have my mind travel to a different part of the plane of Izanoth, and let the surroundings and history of an ancient culture inspire me to compose. I will try my best to capture the atmosphere and the stories that I see in my mind when I’m there. And I hope to entertain some people on the way. Teth The first issue of the Chronicles Of Izanoth will take place in the land of Teth. Books from long ago describe the magick of Teth as colorless, lifeless. Wizards used their powers to animate lifeless objects and machinery, in an artificial world. Great cities were connected through advanced ways of magickal technology. Some of the ruins still stand tall and shelter small communities of leftover Tethians. Even though there isn’t much left of their advanced technology, some cults of wizards still try to revive the old cities, to no avail as of yet. In this land we see almost nothing of organic nature; no trees, no plains of grass and almost no fauna. Every ‘’living’’ creature that resides in this province breathes through artificial means and colorless magick, but as magick is slowly fading, so are the artificial lifeforms of Teth. You will mostly see empty ruins and desolate valleys, with nothing alive. Teth’s shores are made of iron, and have been rusted and deformed by years of cold sea waves. Salty waves come crashing down upon the iron landscape daily, on a shore where nothing is alive but the sea. The smell of the sea and of corroded metal is what you perceive all throughout the mountains and valleys of Teth. Come explore the ruins with me, in search of a history of one of the greatest and most organized civilizations of Izanoth, where almost nothing is left, only a handful of communities who are slowly fading away in their failed attempts at rebuilding their old civilization.'' |

Listening now and loving it so far! Infinite Realm of Forgotten Souls has such a strong atmosphere Thank you very much for checking my stuff out again . I'm strangely enough really excited for the next journey into my mind, to make the next installment in this kind of series type thing. I really enjoy the path I've chosen so far. |

It is already very real, I'd say. And it's not totally separate in my mind so much as like a distillation of a particular interpretation of the genre of dungeon synth.
