BigVjkV_Dabloominberries A MASSIVE improvement from its predecessor, Hip-Hop breakbeats mashed together with clever uses of traditional instruments commonly used in Tolkien-esque Dungeon Synth, and paired with excellent uses of occasional modern day trap beats, and to top all that the fine use of scratching and chiptunes as a nice cherry on top. Never stop experimenting my man, you'll go far with it as long as you're willing to take risks.

We will live to skate another day, my fellow sorcerer! Favorite track: Marseille It Ain't So.

josedenoche STTG2 is the most awaited follow-up to its fun-inspired predecessor. With graffiti-nuanced tweeks and fully enhanced urban-knightly features that will embark your skateboard nostalgia to a full-blown DS experience along with a Tolkien-esh fanfic narrative easily provided to keep our ears weary of the skate quest that awaits us right in front of our PS1 screen. Let the music revive those moments of scrolling down the menu of our game, get your gear up, and go rolling downhill jammingโš”๏ธ๐Ÿ›น๐Ÿง™โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿค˜ Favorite track: Anthony Eagle's Pro Dungeoneer.

Ingvar goofy enough to deal critical psychic damage to anybody who has ever had an intelligent thought in their life. stares both elitists and human decency in the face and says โ€œeat my shorts.โ€ excellent jams from start to finish. cowabunga, dudes! Favorite track: Officer Dick, He's Being A Prick!.

๐Ÿ›น๐Ÿง™๐Ÿค™ DUNGEON SKATE 4 LYFE! ๐Ÿค™๐Ÿง™๐Ÿ›น

It's back! And it's bigger, badder, radder, sicker and more obnoxious than ever before! Yes, the sequel to July 2023's critically and commercially acclaimed 'Slaves To The Grind' - now succinctly titled STTG2 in homage to a certain video game series - straddles the line between parody and copyright infringement to give you a second helping of video game nostalgia, late 90s vibes and fantastic dungeon synth-meets-ska punk, comfy synth, and hip hop!

Infernal Symphony is back once more to ruin the good name of the dungeon synth genre all over again - but this time, the gaps are bigger, the scores are higher, and the soundtrack is radder than ever!

Tackling the prospect of topping the original - which, much like it's main inspiration, topped charts and broke records (becoming the single biggest and best album this project has ever recorded) was no easy task. So, I decided to go twice as hard, twice as silly, and double down on the odd yet satisfying combination of comfy synth, chiptune, skater punk, hip hop chill beats and comedy!

Featuring a dynamic mix of brand new tracks which take inspiration from both the THPS series and PS1 gaming nostalgia in general, and also numerous songs which pay homage to standout tracks from the original album - everything on display here is guaranteed to leave you with 100% satisfaction - or your money back! (Except, the album is free. So, there's that).

This album was a monumental challenge to put together. At double the length of the original LP, this endeavour was as ambitious and as taxing as it was radical, tubular and fiendishly idiotic. Each track is more layered and complex than before, with stupendously catchy passages littered throughout - finished off by a souped-up production for maximum special meter.

Taking full advantage of the longer writing process, I wanted to make this album feel more engaging, expressive, and captivating, taking inspiration from everything from the Neversoft logo, to RATM, comfy synth, pop punk and much more. For this one I had the luxury of spending 5 weeks to develop the music, as opposed to five days, resulting in a surprisingly-competent collection of bangers!

I didn't just want to churn this out to satisfy a demand, stroke my own ego or just rush out a quick cash grab - I knew that the idea of dungeon skate was only just getting started - and that such a unique and innovative concept demanded my full attention, for more than one shot at the secret tape. I wanted to craft this album meticulously to fully do the idea of dungeon skate music, AND my dedicated fans justice. So here I am - doing everything I can. Holding on to what I am, pretending I'm a decent musician!

With 55 minutes, 16 tracks, and numerous sounds, references and nostalgia-laden tunes about skaters, 90s era gaming, unlockable characters, memorable levels, xtreme sports and a genuine appreciation for skating culture and personal nostalgia, this is the ultimate album for fans of comedy, skating, medieval fantasy, early hip-hop, video gaming, bored dungeon synth fans and lovers of creative music made with passion.

Thank you to everyone who enjoys this album and appreciates it for what it is. Dungeon synth is an amazing genre with an incredible community, filled with boundless creativity and with ample room to grow - but don't take it too seriously! Instead, kick back some tunes, throw back some beers, grab your board and ollie your way off into the sunset. Slaves 2 Tha Grind out.

Smell ya later, skater haters! ๐Ÿ›น๐Ÿง™๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿค™๐Ÿ›ก๏ธโš”๏ธ
