![]() Music is full of timelines and simplified histories as we enjoy having one thing lead to another. We as humans take comfort in segmenting information and making it simplified. At this point, it is impossible to predict how the timeline will develop, but if one would like my unwelcome opinion, the global pandemic and subsequent boom of comfy synth in 2020 provides an easy juncture where dungeon synth became a plural community that was just as much about celebrating the old as it was at embracing the new. The dungeon synth revival of the 2010's will either be its second wave or third, depending if there is an excavation of the dark ambient releases in the 00's. What we know as old school dungeon synth or classic dungeon synth will be its first wave, which is the work of the artists who developed its sound but had yet to coin it as a style. Dungeon synth will have a first, second, and subsequent waves to delineate its progression of styles. It is my supposition and uneducated prediction that dungeon synth will develop in waves, similar to music like its black metal relative. What will be "old" in 20? What will dungeon synth history look like when it enters its twenty and thirty year anniversary? On a long enough timeline, however, the term old school will lose its meaning. This idea was in line with Wernda's vision of "the sound of the ancient crypt." Old school dungeon synth made sense as a style when there was modern dungeon synth and old school tribute. When different styles, such as more melodious and idyllic sounds became popular, "old school dungeon synth" was used as a dillenation between the sounds of the old and the new. During the mid 2010's, many modern acts played tribute to the sounds of this period, taking inspiration from acts like Mortiis, Burzum, and Depressive Silence. The term "old school dungeon synth" has been used as a description for the sound of dungeon synth in the 1990's. On a long enough timeline, what will be "old" to us versus what will be new? "Dungeon synth," in its revival concept, has existed for more than a decade and shows little signs of waning. Dungeon synth was the name of both the original acts of the 90's, side projects from black metal musicians, as well as the revival acts that operated in the early 2010's. We've even curated a variety of starter kits for novice witches and spellcasters along with a gigantic range of books for new and long practicing witches.Andrew Werdna coined the term "dungeon synth" in 2011 as a new term that would describe a host of fantasy, medieval, and dark ambient acts that all worked towards the same thematic aesthetic.
