Listened today at work. This is a great release, because it sounds exactly as a split should sound: cohesive, despite the obvious differences in styling between the artists. The last long one is a gem, Encloaked part is super quality (...and I had no doubt about that). Your shopping carts look a bit too empty...throw this one in, NOW!

Thanks a lot pals.
This was a very fun project to work on. Javi from Castle Zagyx put the project together and came up with the concept and cover art. Him and Mortwight both knocked it out of the park. The Castle Zagyx track is such a monster.
For those curious, my tracks were played exclusively on VST instruments. The Cheeze Machine by 2Gether Audio, the Tyrell by u-He and the Viking by Blamsoft were used the most, plus several Spitfire Labs patches. Almost everything I used is available as Freeware. My debut album was about half hardware and half VST, for comparison. I wanted to make sure that all three of my tracks were being powered by similar engines to get a more consistent sound.

Also, I liked a lot your contributions on the 3-way split album you recently released, they were the highlight, nice work!! Regards

My new EP "Isolation Suite" is now available for download! It's largely improved and more gritty/lofi than you might expect from me. Mastered on cassette tape for that special sauce. Beware! encloaked.bandcamp.com/album/isolation-suite

Happy Bandcamp Friday! I've just released a new track called "Hyperborean Hands". It's got guitar in it. It's got synths. It's creepy, icy and weird. It's got a sample from Conan the Barbarian in it. You should listen to it. I've also dropped the pricing on the shirts a little bit for today only--Only a handful left so eat up! encloaked.bandcamp.com/track/hyperborean-hands

just listened. This one is a VERY GOOD craftsman track, it's clear that you perfectly know how to make harmonic knowledge be helpful and WHEN. I also use that kind of modulations sometimes: they really help giving that horror vibe like cluster chords or chromatic phrasing do. So, could "horror tricks" be a good topic for one of my YouTube videos? Anyway, put the track on my wishlist for the next BC Friday!

You should listen to it. Niiiice one, I really enjoyed it and it has your unique style , great one, the female voice gives a great haunting vibe to it!! I also have purchased Isolation Suite for a while but searching for the appropriate time to listen to it and enjoy it fully!! Regards!!

Thanks a lot guys, I appreciate the kind words you always have. I just released a new single tonight called "The Air is Thick With Magic Here". It leans more into Synthwave territory but it's dark, ambitious and nostalgic and I'm very proud of it. I hope you all enjoy the song. encloaked.bandcamp.com/track/the-air-is-thick-with-magic-here

Hell yeah. This one definitely earns the vinyl treatment.

I'm really pleased to see your album released on vinyl. I really hope it doesn't sell out before I get the money together to buy it!
Gotta say I'm pretty curious about your new material having a synthwave kinda vibe to it too. As a big fan of both DS and synthwave, I think the crossover between the two could yield very interesting results.
