dungeon synth
Last updated:
Description
Dungeon synth is an atmospheric electronic music genre characterized by lo-fi synthesizers, medieval-inspired melodies, and fantasy themes evoking dungeons, castles, and mystical landscapes. Emerging from the ambient interludes of 1990s black metal, it creates immersive soundscapes that feel like soundtracks to imaginary role-playing games. The genre emphasizes mood and atmosphere over technical complexity, often featuring sparse, haunting compositions.
