Hey folks!
I've put together a video summarising all the content released in March, including the alternate versions of the tracks available to Bard tier supporters. If you want a quick catch up on everything that was released last month, this should do you right.
For April I won't b...
"The street of the undercity are cracked and broken, shadowed by the mighty buildings of the thriving metropolis above. The only light comes from the occasional streetlamp, flickering and sputtering. It's enough to see by, but it's not enough to chase away the shadows. They cling to the build...

The dim streetlights cast shadows that dance on the bloodstained pavement. The scent of death lingers in the air, clinging to your clothes and hair. You stand over the body, looking down at him. His face is smeared with dirt and blood. His eyes are open, but lifeless. Blood has pooled around ...

Light spills through the windows of the Fire Temple, reflecting off the city streets and walls and illuminating the desert at night. You enter through the heavy stone doors, heat blasting you as the temple roars a hurricane’s scream of wind and sand and flame. Below you, lava boils. Above y...

Hey folks,
I'm live composing in a few minutes. I'll be writing some music for a Fire Temple in a Desert City as part of a collab I have planned.
Hope to see some of you there!
Thanks,
Ian.
You cough from the multi-coloured smoky haze spewing out of the opened door. As the smoke clears, you see a tiny gnome in a leathery apron standing before you. His long vibrant hair is burnt and frayed, and his bulging eyes are squeezed behind thick goggles. The whirring of mechanical devices...

"The world is still. The chirping of birds is the only sound to be heard. It’s a scene of quiet. The skies stretch out with no clouds. The world is in void.
And then, the sky darkens, clouds swirl and writhe, wracking the sky with lightning and thunder. A fire engulfs the gra...

"The streets are packed, the air thick with rejoicing. Trumpets blare, loud and discordant and joyful, and crowds of people pour out onto the streets from their houses and shops and taverns. Confetti is fired from makeshift cannons, shreds of jade, teal and rose paper fill the air. The acrid ...

You look up to the vast field of stars and strange, swirling clouds of fathomless colours. It is a vast, limitless place, stretching and stretching and stretching, into an impossibly silent eternity. In the spaces between those stars live creatures beyond compreh...

Your mind screams for the day, for the dawning sun, for a beam of light, for anything to cut through the absolute darkness. The air is thick with the smell of fungus. Sputtering, you pull yourself along the damp, slick floor. Something is wrong. Something is very, very wrong. A shap...

You sneak through a twisted tapestry of leafless trees. Their boughs are empty and black; hands reach out from the branches. The forest air is thick with rot, and full with the howling of corrupted wildlife. Worms squirm through the loose soil, feeding on rotting branches and fallen leaves. Y...

It is as the title says! I'll be adding all subsiquent albums onto there too, so if you're the sort of person who likes to own a copy of an album, Bandcamp is probably the best place to pick them up as they give me the biggest cut.
In other news, I'm going away for just over a week from to...
Hey folks,
This month's theme was voted as Exotic Ecosystems, a great suggestion by Bard tier supporter OMFGChris.
Exotic can sometimes be a loaded term, so to be precise, in this case I'm taking exotic to mean ecosystems that fall outside of the 't...
"The floorboards creak beneath your feet as you tip-toe through Lord Eckart's private quarters. You sneak by the reception where an unwitting servant cleans away the previous night's debauchery, her back turned to you. You scuttle softly across the study, almost tripping over a pile of books ...

Hey folks, I'm live composing for the first time in a while, going live in 10 from the time of this post! I'm writing some epic combat music inspired by Dune, loosly based on a track suggestion from Spyridon Alexopoulos, one of my bard tier supporters. Hope to see you there!
