Malfet
Pastoral Dungeon Synth
https://malfet.bandcamp.com/
From the project’s inception, Malfet has made a profound impact on modern dungeon synth, pairing idyllic backdrops with tales of Arthurian-inspired heroism. Using a concise palette of harpsichords, percussion, flutes, lush strings, and delicate harps, the artist has invited listeners to experience a nostalgic dream along with him across four albums and many live performances. Malfet continues to refine his ethereal blend of rich melodies and evocative field recordings, creating a magical listening space where companions new, old, and departed can exist side by side, questing together in pursuit of the unknowable.

Alder Deep
Dungeon Noise from the Deeps

Far below the surface the darkness presses in. You hear things you should not. You see impossible sights. Your memories become warped and your thoughts consumed by the murky depths. Will you ever see the surface again?
