HDK 81 † Husk the mountains

by PONTIFFERASMUS

Seb Absolutely captivating atmospheres, creepy yet infused with beauty. A soundtrack for haunted dreams. That 4th track is hypnotizing with its distant pulse... Thanks to Pontifferasmus, the sky has indeed got real, and it's full of precious stars. Favorite track: The sky is finally real.

Evergreen This album was a fantastic surprise. Really great atmosphere here.

Christopher Healey Warm, analogue sounding DS, reminiscent of Vinterriket's early work in parts with simple melancholic melodies drifting in & out. My favorite track reminded me a little of Mike Oldfield. Very evocative. Favorite track: The sky is finally real.

about

"Under a slip of a moon that hung in the air like a clipped fingernail, Pontiff Erasmus honoured the heavens by donning a capirote that forever pointed upward to the grand abyss. It was by the Order of the Osiris Triad that the people of Maypyre were to be put to death, and the Pontiff honoured this request. He opened the Shadesbourne and read from the rotten pages therein. From incantation to action his words became as mists which formed the creature that would devour Maypyre, its people, its livestock and its land. This was the only way to ensure the wealth of this valley finally became his, and his alone".

0===[============>

From the mysterious Pontiff Erasmus, pure chthonic magic translated into music. For classic dungeon-synth lovers.

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure. brantly
