Witch Bolt - Howl [Dungeon Synth, Dungeon Ambient]

[@colinflack4517]

I would like to congratulate the youtube algorithm for this suggestion. Running errands has never felt so ominous

[@WitchBoltMusic]

Your errands we're just upgraded to side quests 🍄

[@dranorter]

KZbin was really persistent on this one for me, I ignored it all month. Glad I finally clicked.

39:19 the tiny glow of a small soul makes me feel like im not of this world. Big congrats

Said it before, and i stay by my words, this is perfect for traditional roguelike-ing !!! synthcore + ascii + imagination = BOOM

I just got so much done for my DND campaign thank you so much you've earned a subcriber for life

[@WitchBoltMusic]

Hell yeah 🍄

[@nickleedom1198]

A lot of the comments are rightfully gushing over the beautiful music, but I haven't seen a lot of talk about the aesthetic of these tracks. Most of the song/album covers are nature themed and dark. Lots of red, tan, and black isolating the subject of the picture. The most notable exemption from the color pattern is The Elderwood Guardian (my favorite album) with the grass green background and white objects. However, these all give me a slightly uneasy feeling, like I'm somewhere I'm not supposed to be. The music absolutely adds to this vibe, but the cover art is what primes us for the experience. This is all to say that I adore the cover art. I'd like to have a poster of The Elderwood Guardian on my wall, I enjoy these that much. Keep at it Witch Bolt. I can not wait to hear (and see) what you create next.

[@WitchBoltMusic]

Wow thanks! That's a hell of a compliment! 🍄🍄🍄

[@WarmaidenOfficial]

First time visitor. Love this ambient music!

[@Winklebott]

Let's just say that with the heavy winds blowing and the leaves beginning their autumnal metamorphosis: this album has dropped at the right time. Great work, you've got a lifelong fan! I was listening to the album while driving around after harvest in my small town and watching some fields being burned. The back drop of an early night and flames in the distance on old gravel roads was a great combo with this album. Let this album transport you OR I highly recommend listening to this album while outside on an autumn walk. It will help reinforce the experience when you inevitably come back to listen to it later. Keep up the great work!

[@ColeThompson-b1l]

My dnd group loves putting on your music during sessions! We can't wait to hear more Witch Bolt!

[@dariaglenter1658]

Magpies and Fencelines pulls a kind of sorrow from my soul that is so all-consuming, overwhelming, it's like my bones turn to lead. It's so beautiful and sad. Beautiful and sad and full of mourning and hope. Almost can't stand what it does to the heart of mine. Thank you so much for this.

Bones of Aurum (or Gold) is by far my favorite, until I listen to all of it again. The story told here is amazing. I can imagine everything visually just from the sounds, and the ideas the songs inspire are so great. Thank you for helping me rediscover my imaginative spark.

Love it. The guitar in "Teach Me to Be Small" around 01:32:45 reminds me of the Twin Peaks theme.

Haha no way! That was my inspiration on the clean guitar with the faint slapback delay.

[@WordofSil]

thank you for this, friend. Dungeon Synth should become more known of course some part of me is against it, because trve kvlt and all, wanting ds to be this obscure thing, but then others wouldn't be able to experience its magic!!

[@WitchBoltMusic]

Haha I totally get the mixed feelings. I grew up in metal and hardcore so when a band gets attention it's bittersweet. I started out obscure lol. I never thought anyone would listen. I was planning to have a celebration when I hit 50 subscribers. I honestly have no idea how it has gained so much traction. Thanks for the kind words and thanks for listening.

I make all the art. iPad and SketchBook.

[@JCSantiago]

What is this art style called?

[@WitchBoltMusic]

Good question. There's no specific school or style I'm trying to emulate. My inspiration has been fantasy, the occult, and medieval tarot cards made with woodblock prints. I spoke with a friend who knows more than me about visual art that said a good approximation would be high-fantasy in the style of folk horror 🤷 .
