MORTWIGHT, REDHORN GATE, ELYVILON, TERRAN WRETCH
Mortwight is a solo dungeon synth/dark ambient act from Denton, Texas. He composes and performs funereal and cyclopean synth music inspired by Old Tower, Wallachian Cobwebs, Magic Find, Desiderii Marginis, and Raison d’être among others. In his live performances, Mortwight strives to envelop the audience in bleak walls of sorrowful and dismal noise, carried forth over dirgelike, yet martial percussion. From the lowest dungeon under the highest peak, Gundrim the Smith and Dalom the Delver unearth subterranean chasmic compositions celebrating the rich histories of the dwarves. Meanwhile, the Elder Olgrin conducts ancient rituals from ages past under the mountains; accompanied by stunning visual spells cast by their resident sorcerer Eladrim. Together as Redhorn Gate they welcome you to take part in this ancient ceremony and join the ranks of the dwarves! Elyvilon is high energy dungeon synth music with a folky medieval sound and live instrumentation. Terran Wretch is Anthony A Dunn (ex-Sun Splitter). Chicago’s Terran Wretch is known for taking the audience on an uninterrupted journey of evolving sound through warm, spacey dark ambient, clattering industrial-adjacent drum machine attacks and filthy hypnotic techno. Terran Wretch resides in the in-between states of liminal discomfort and body-on-the-floor bliss.

Mors Vitaque / Gates of Dawn / Sorrowmoon
An offering to the altar of life and death, Alkilith and Nightshade join forces in Mors Vitaque: a project that conceptually deals with existence’s cyclical nature. We are born, we die, and we are born again as these two dungeon synth artists explore the dynamics of the life cycle. Brought forth by the minds behind Alkilith, Hyacinth, Amaranth, Shelter, and Nightshade, who are also the founders of the Great Lakes Dungeon Synth circle, Mors Vitaque’s beauty and misery is both a celebration of life and the mourning of what follows. Gates of Dawn (MN) are a Psychedelic Black Metal proffers no easy influence and bears a sound novel and without pretense to any evil darkness or trite melancholy Sorrow Moon (Fort Wayne, IN) is a 3-Piece dungeon synth/atmospheric black metal act.
