Style: ambient, dungeon synth
Primary Emotions/Themes: Long compositions that hypnotize me into a frozen trance
Thoughts: I don't quite understand my fascination with Nortfalke. By every measure their music is rather standard dungeon synth with a huge touch of ambient music splashed in. Every time I listen to it though I'm swept away into distant realms and far away places.
Slow repeating melodies that are backed by multiple layers of keyboards is the basis of what is heard on Atmosfeer. It's essentially the same song the entirety of each song... and that's around ten minutes of run time for each one. It should be boring. It should be an easy skip... but it's not.
Instead it draws me deeper and deeper into it's clutches. I'm enthralled by the layers, the simplicity of it all. It draws me in further every time I listen. Even now I have a deep urge to flip the record one more time so that I can listen to the whole thing over again. Putting this record on my turntable is a dangerous proposition.
