Style: Dungeon synth, ambient
Primary Emotions/Themes: The light of the moon trickles through the forest, illuminating the world with it's pale glow
Thoughts: Nortfalke's music has not changed much over the years at it's core. It's essentially slow moving melodies played over atmospheric keyboards. One of those descriptions that sounds incredibly boring in theory, however in practice it is anything but.
The reality of things is that the music contained on the disc is haunting. It's a frozen landscape of musical notes. The cover of the album is nearly perfect, the moon light is the overall ambience and the trees provide the individual notes. It's majestic and it sends chills down my spine.
As with all Nortfalke releases this one stays on the turntable for a long time. They are among my favorite dungeon synth artists active today, and have yet to release an album I did not like. Best enjoyed in darkness and with the night sky in full view.
