The cover art! I empathize so much with that poor crummy goblin. Since the Dark Lord’s demise the mind control has dissolved, but what’s done is done. Their tiny goblin heart is nothing but a shrivelled lump of coal now. They survived The Hero’s onslaught by some miracle, or thanks to their own irrepressible cowardice. Now what? The supernatural angst is gone, but nothing else has filled the void. How they long to chew on a fresh slimy frog, or maybe even on a catfish. The furnaces' fumes have probably ruined their snout forever, and yet they’d swear they’re catching a whiff of a nearby swamp’s vapour. Suddenly they remember home ; an emotion fogs their beady eyes.
@@Walter5850 Good. I'll take a "mindless" machine producing art over some pretentious "artist". They think just because they can doddle particularly well, that it makes them hot shit. They tend to get too wraped up in their own hype; high on their own farts. So you can draw good, so what? I turn a wrench pretty damn well, but nobody lauds my accomplishments. Humility is a virtue you'll scarcely find in the "art" community.
sounds like someone who isn't an artist would say. It's about the craft of making something by hand, not the hype surrounding it. Your pfp is Corto Maltese by the way, a work that was made by hand by a really famous comic artist, so whats your point? Do you want the world to lose the artist's touch and be replaced by a machines neural network of image theft? AI draws its database from real artists works, its not original. @@MnemonicHack
@@Ricardo_Belmonte I am an artist. As an industrial mechanic, I maintain and improve massive structures of steel, plastic and rubber; presses that weigh a hundred tons, robotic lines that can assemble hundreds of components an hour, works of art that can drive entire industries. Machines are art. They're a real, useful, powerful work of art that has actual worth and can PRODUCE worth, as opposed to worth simply assigned to a painting that does nothing but sit there and be interpreted. Don't like that? Well I'm also a writer, and have been one for more than a decade. Writing is an artform all of it's own. I also hand-carve wood and onyx. Nothing is truly original. All artists take influence from anything and everything. To the point where we write laws to make sure someone's art isn't TOO similar to someone else's. I don't bemoan all artists. I'm complaining about the _~Artist~_ who thinks they're oh so unique; a practical gift to the world. And I take ebullient joy in them crying about how a machine does what they can do. Yes, the cover art IS art. Art is in the eye of the beholder, and not for you to decry it simply on the basis that it's made by a machine.
Alundra 2, Chrono Trigger, Live a Live, FF Tactics, Threads of Fate (Dewprism in japan), Legend of Dragoon... I was born in '91. My first console was a NES, but my favorite was the 64. Although 4ish years after getting my beloved N64 I got the PSOne and goddamnit what a charming console with a more charming library. It's funny how different both consoles were. They're like distant cousins with different personalities and character traits. The games looked different (obviously because hardware features and limitations) and that gave them each a different texture. Miss those times. Life was just a neverending play.
I agree. Its rare we get OSR styled art involving a goblin that isnt some tribal pyromaniac. That goblin looks like a fighter who has seen his fair share of horrors of dungeon crawling.
That Goblin looks tough, not friendly, suspicious of you but if you say the right things he might let you through and even offer to escort you along treacherous paths and over dark passes through his dundgeons. On another planet
This brings back memories for me somehow of the winter nights I'd go out into the desert where I lived and watch the heavens, unobstructed by the lights of population. Stinging cold, eerily still, and all silver with the light of the moon. Makes my little orc heart happy!
There's no way Simon and Cryo Chamber are delving into the world of dungeon synth, Cryo Chamber introduced me to ambient music like no other label. This is amazing, the quality, the authenticity, you have begun something great! I have introduced others to the genres of both dark ambient and dungeon synth, but now it's going to be like a one stop shop. Thank you Cryo Chamber
@@Nerobyrne it definitely is AI generated. Look at the sword. Also, the right kneecap on the trousers is missing. If you look close enough, the belt buckle is also obvious. It's not a bad AI generated cover, by all means. But I do wish for that sword to be better.
@@Nerobyrne That's probably because multiple variations were created and then mixed-and-matched between versions that are more cohesive. That's the proper way to use it, anyway. Just getting away with one generation is pretty lazy, what I tend to do is go through at least 30 to 50 variations of each and then heavily edit them in Photoshop to get the best bits and pieces across all variations.
As someone who's an avid Soulsborne/Fromsoft player, THIS is the kind of music I've been searching for. I found this genre of music and my god am I making a playlist for it. Thank you for this.

00:00 Temple Halls Как же прекрасно! Наводит ощущение невероятной тоски по чему-то прошлому, аж хочется плакать. Будто воспоминания былой жизни и чего-то великого, но утерянного. Потрясающе!
Especially Temple Halls, Castle Halls, A Lone Wizard Emerges and Pyre give off a vibe of perseverance in despair. Like accepting and embracing it, and thus being able to push past it.
My, my, my: this is straight out my childhood. This is some seriously retro, 80s-style fantasy synth, like it could have gone right along with a game of First Edition AD&D!
It''s been quite some time since I heard any new Dungeon Synth album that didn't feel the same as others. Really nice. The 1st track is especially good.
Mortiis best is the one where he stands in front of a lake. There are resemblances to this but it’s also different!! There are also Burzum vibes here! It’s very good!!!!! Vinyl please!!
when you find yoda in the ancient multiverse for years iv heard almost everything cryo has made and you really have out done yourself on this one sir. this is beautiful
This is my favorite ambient music. Whatever inspired you guys, keep doing it. Do more of this. I can't put my finger on why exactly. But it instills a shadowy dark fantasy in my mind, with a melodic medley intertwined to sing me a story. It's perfect for roleplaying in the deep dark, gaming in the grim dark, writing, reading, or just... to stare at the wall and think. Fantastic blend, bravo! And I never comment, so that's saying something.
Thanks for showcasing this genre. This release surprisingly doesn't feel too stale even though it has a lot of other ds elements that have been used a million times. The production and arrangement, I think, make it exceptional.
I'm getting crazy 80's-90's vibes with this from when I was younger and played ton of Commodore Amiga 500 videogames back then, listening this whole album is like having a trip back to Commodore Amiga era. Wild how accurate the retro-synths sounds and how well put together this album is, specially the percussion, the lead-pads and some drones, reminds me a lot to the good old Commodore Amiga Samplers and its 28 kHz soundchip. Fantastic job capturing the genuine essence of the sound from decades ago.
Thanks, that means a lot and it's not a coincidence, Amiga 500 was the bomb and I used it with tracker software to make music a ton! Definitely a big inspiration for me playing with trackers and playing old SSI CRPGs.
@@cryochamberlabel That is absolutely amazing, it truly fills me with joy to hear that. I can't imagine the amount of work and effort it must take to work with old trackers. I can't tell if you're emulating the system or if you're running a genuine Amiga 500 hardware setup (still have mine here), but whatever way it is, it was definitely worth it, granted, you captured the soul of that era. I hope to listen to more of this kind of work in the future, here is a lot of potential and authenticity. Thank you very much for your honest reply, best wishes.
@@cryochamberlabel Pour one out for the days of Protracker, Screamtracker and the like. I used to love being able to pull apart MOD files and build my own songs.
@@Bearded-Bastard Definitely not using trackers on this, just taking a few notes from my old workflow and keeping it minimalist in the number of layers used compared to my crazy dark ambient projects
@@samuelrichardson1564 Hell yeah!! Crazy thing, RNGMNN project on Cryo Chamber are using Trackers for his dark ambient work, definitely worthy of respect in this day and age.. He is about to release some new stuff on the Winter Light record label soon too, worth to check it out.
“A farmer comes home one day to find that everything that gives meaning to his life is gone. Crops are burned, animals slaughtered, bodies and broken pieces of his life strewn about. Everything that he loved taken from him - his children. One can only imagine the pit of despair, the hours of Job-like lamentations, the burden of existence. He makes a promise to himself in those dark hours. A life's work erupts from his knotted mind. Years go by. His suffering becomes complicated. One day he stops - the farmer who is no longer a farmer - sees the wreckage he's left in his wake. It is now he who burns, he who slaughters, and he knows in his heart he must pay.”
This makes me feel so weird but in a good way. Amazing work! Absolutely dripping with atmosphere. It sounds like a backing track to 'Vermis' by Plastiboo.
I knew I made the correct choice subscribing to this channel years ago. If it wasn't for Cryo there's hundreds of albums I'd never would have found and listened to.
Digging this take on the genre, still has that darkly cinematic edge that I expect with Cryo releases. Excited to hear more! Pyre is such a great track.
Oh my god, how did I miss this? Never would I ever expect Cryo Chamber to do a Synthwave album, but here we are! What a marvelous piece, thanks for the continuous high quality music you provide
I've been looking a lot for music like the tunes in Demon's Crest, a SNES game, this is the closest I've been to finding it, I love it, thank you so much ❤
Dejected goblin brethren, I sympathize and rally behind you in these dark times. Let us struggle together and believe in ourselves to find a way out of the dungeon to the greener pastures beyond...
Excellent stuff! I like how it is just dynamic enough without dominating the ear. It grants ambience without the cheap trick of an ever-present airy note that boarders on low grade Tinnitus. The color of the synth feels retro but not exactly dated. The compositions are narrative but only sketched so that they remain abstract. A fantasy surrealist audio journey. My last favorite work of this kind was Tales from Southern Realms by Ziggurath, an absolute gem for my D&D campaign. Mountain Realm - Grayshadow Ruins is defiantly joining the playlist. Thanks So Much For This.... More of THIS!!
This whole track feels like the beginning of a really heavy metal song right before the guitar comes in, and the drum starts to hit... accept it never does. Sounds great
Serious Age of Wonders vibes to this album, love this so much! I spent probably real world days designing a map that was basically its own game for the original AoW and loved the sequels, the music to the game as much as anything stands out as a very strong component. If you guys are fans of turn based strategy games check out that series, being able to call down firestorms and earthquakes or floating clouds of pestilence on towns or to exploit the games RPG stats components to make your heroes invulnerable to attacks and or spells was so much fun!
Mountain Realm is sick! Love this. Just the type of music I need to concentrate at a task. Reminds me of old GBA RPGs like Golden Sun. Love it. Keep it coming! ❤️

Everything is so delicious. The art, the vibe, the deepness of each track.
Exquisite ❤

13:48 - "Goblin Cave" is for sure my favorite. It fits the vibe of the image. Loved it!
Mortiis could not be any prouder of all the legacy he has spawned. As soon as someone sounds great in dungeon synth, it sounds like Mortiis... period!
Hopefully it sounds a bit closer to my 20+ year old DS project Za Frûmi 😅
