Dungeon Synth

Friend of mine is really into this stuff, even made me some mixtapes of Dungeon Synth. A lot of 0PN's recent stuff seems to be coincidentally sounding a lot like this stuff too.

The guy behind Burzum is a full on neo-nazi

He's not though

 

Not a Nazi but still a white supremacist who thinks white Europeans came from Atlantis via Thule 10,000 years ago. Convicted arsonist and murderer. To call him a Neo-Nazi is inaccurate but it's not an unfair label either.

He's a very intelligent asshole. Kind of person who makes for thought provoking interviews and is personable but also says things that are morally and intellectually trash. Take him a with a grain of salt.

Channel of archived stuff. Between that and new releases on bandcamp there's a shitload to check out.

There's one 90s era demo tape of dungeon synth I heard, I think this is it but I feel like there's another, that's really heavy on new age and 90s earth / environmental electronic downtempo music vibes (deep forest, enigma, certain FSOL albums, etc) ...very much vaporwave sample fodder.

second half of this too

i'm realy enjoyng my drunk purchase, it's sounds like afx from 700 years ago

i guess this stuff is interesting from a 'how the fuck was this produced' perspective

literally designs an original 90's style soundcard to make the music

Sir Ooze, as a hellgian, you must have heard this one? Excellent inadvertent dungeon synth from the dark 80s.

nice find

There's some fairly interesting previously unreleased prison-era Burzum floating around

Some of it isn't "dungeon synth" but it's fairly atmospheric

χψμοπηανε?? That's hardly even pronouncable lol... moron. Sounds pretty nice tho.

More unreleased Burzum. Experimental Techno?

EDIT: Side note - here's some actual Dungeon Synth

That Burzum stuff sounds like someone taking dungeon synth and doing a needless "techno" OverClocked ReMix of it. Curious and weird stuff nonetheless. 

The Uruk-Hai / Burzum is quite interesting I wasn't aware Varg actually had access to guitar briefly in jail.

He didn't afaik. Mind the "88-94", the Uruk-Hai demo is from the former time period.

I was going off Varg's comments from the video, maybe I misread

Wow. I have not heard this in a long time.... In fact, I had forgotten all about this. It must be from a recording I did in Bergen prison in 1994, on a 4-track studio (cassette-player large) that I was allowed to have (along with my now lost  guitar) for a very short time in my cell. At least I used that time well, and recorded this.

What a shit hole that prison was. One of those fancy new prisons, completely void of spirit and where everyone is treated with clinical hatred. I spent one year in almost total isolation there, before they sent me to Ila Prison.

Thanks for letting me listen to these track again. So many memories.

I see. My guess is he's referring to the "B-side" only without being specific. Uruk-Hai is pre-Burzum.

i'm going to book a dungeon synth artist to play live background music at my next basement LARP sesh

this is was what dungeon synth should sound like

the meme is alive

Been working from home today so been digging into some of this stuff.  Thanks for bringing this to my attention, the kind of rabbit hole I love!
