Entry 1275 - Solanum - Spheres of Time


Style: dungeon synth

Primary Emotions/Themes: What does the universe hold for us? What does it owe us? 

Thoughts: Sphere's of Time is the first of two demo tapes from Solanum in the late 90's. In my estimation its the better album of the two, largely because it sticks to the dungeon synth style rather than branching off into unknown territories. 

Solanum is clearly gifted in creating dungeon synth that reflects the majesty of the night sky. They created two wonderful demos that are best listened to at night as the music contained within is vast and at times awe inspiring. 

Listening to these old dungeon synth recordings brings me untold joy. I love discovering things that I completely missed the first time through, and now that I have the chance to finally hear it I can't do anything but smile.
