St. George and the Dragon

by Chaucerian Myth

supported by

4sl A simple tune that carries a heavy emotion, the image of a knight banneret leading a company of bachelors forward into the lair of a dragon.

This record at times abandons rhythm and common musical reason to tell a story, which makes it all the more interesting.

Favorite track: St. George's Rhapsody.

Megachiles Absolutely chockablock with heroic leitmotifs.

about

Sincere and heartfelt thanks to:

My wife, for everything.

To Jordan and Ancient Meadow Records for keeping the physical release front handled so well that I don't have to ever be worried about it.

To Jon of Tarkin Turfer for unknowingly giving me the inspiration to start actually writing music for this album.

To Out of Season for their excellent reissue of The Canterbury Tales on CD. Couldn't have even imagined doing it better myself.

To Adam, David, Gwen, Jacob, Jesse, Justin, Keegan, Nathan, and Tony for their constant comraderie and support, and for the conversations that are as genuinely thought-provoking as they are entertaining.

To the gang: Chloe, Chloe, Cody, Damon, Derek, Jade, Robert, Ryan, Tristan, and Tyrin. Finer and truer individuals you'll seldom meet.

To the Dungeon Synth Proboards, for being a haven for the DS scene away from Facebook.

To whover it was that called Pale Swordsman "Pale Simpsman." That was pretty funny.

To Krissy, for releasing music of such high quality that it begs to be listend to, and for always having an ear open to me.

To my sister, God rest her soul.

To C.K., for taking the abuse we laid at his feet in stride, and for creating Dungeon Synth's best years.

To all the artists and fans involved in DS from around the years 2015-2017. You are all epic in my eyes.

To all those who have listened, are listening, and will continue to do so. Your patience humbles me.

Witherless Floret [Demo]
by Eulelier

My top Dungeon Synth album of 2018 so far. Brilliantly-composed Neoclassical Dungeon Synth that is thoughtful, atmospheric, and expressive. An absolute must-listen. Chaucerian Myth

Sunnhild
by Gatekeeper

Another monumental Dungeon Synth album from 2018. Very inspired by Video Game Music, and the compositions are masterful. Very easy to get lost in. For those into "magical" DS, this is for you. Chaucerian Myth

Limbus Patrum
by Illusionment

Dungeon Synth made entirely with sounds from single-note samples of phonograph cylinders, but this album is no gimmick. The compositions are incredible. For fans of epic Nintendo 64 soundtracks. Chaucerian Myth

I met Fogweaver through Vedurnan and, later, Magelight. This more energetic take on their music is wonderful and exciting, a compelling twist bearing their unique signature. emanuele127
