New Ambience: Nightlands
🕑 Added 2025-01-29 17:52:12 +0000 UTCGreetings Patrons,
This week I created an atmospheric, moody location that I called Nightlands. It could be 'ruined lands', or 'shadow lands', or any number of permanently twilight, partially destroyed environments, brimming with dark magic.
In my mind, this is a world which was once vibrant, but destroyed by a cataclysmic event. As such, the fabric between our world and Nightlands has been torn and it's possible to travel between them.
The ambience here is barren and windy. Leafless trees creak and sway. Dust motes swirl around the crumbled ruins of buildings. Small bands of scavenging creatures vie for survival. An adventurer would only come here by choice if there were riches to be found. Or answers.
Musically this is ambient/chaotic. Instruments swirl, rise, and crash like the Nightlands wind. String clusters, brass, tortured orchestral sounds, synths, and twisted vocal melodies match the ambience. It's calm and energetic at the same time.
As this track is in Patreon sneak-peek mode, I've included the mixed version (live on the site next week) as well as music-only and ambience-only versions. Additionally, I created 2 'calm' versions which aren't really calm at all, but they do tone down some of the howling winds. I hope you find these useful.
Thank you all, as always, for your continuing support.
Best,
Tim

Just wanted to let you know that the Patreon link on the website for this Ambience leads to Royal Visit instead of here! 😉
