about

Murky adventurous dungeon synth with a fine-tuned balance between brooding moods and playful forays of a folky or electronic nature. Gretel is the side-project of England's mighty Faery Ring.

Compared to the main project's deep neoclassical atmospheres and own narrative foundation, Gretel produces quirkier shorter pieces inspired by other fantasy worlds. 'Howling Forests And Swamps Of Sadness' is inspired by Michael Ende's Neverending Story, and features 8 tracks of a delightfully unpredictable nature.

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
