Chapter 1 of 2

The two albums (chapters) are my take on old school dungeon synth and heavily influenced by Secret Stairways. I'd been accumulating tracks for this project for some time and working on tracks as a way of distraction from other more emotionally draining projects. Once I had what I considered a strong group of about 30 demos, I started the editing and selection process. Since my last Sumatran Black release was over 80 minutes long, I decided to break this project into two separate chapters to make it a bit more manageable for the listener.

Musically, I wanted them to sound like something a teenager would have recorded on a four track borrowed from the school's music department and sequenced on a cracked copy of Cubase. Simple but heartfelt melodies presented with limited instrumentation.
