Still no sign of that new Menestroll CD, but I'll post an update here when he adds them to his bandcamp page (if you don't beat me to it  ).
In the meantime, I managed to snag a copy of this little gem on ebay, although I haven't received it yet. The CD seems to be pretty scarce, as there's no listing for it on the bandcamp page or on discogs:
https://heimatderkatastrophe.bandcamp.com/album/hdk-81-husk-the-mountains
Very atmospheric and airy in places, yet melodic and engrossing. I can't wait to give it a proper spin!
Lucky b@stard!!!! Never heard of the artist or album, and certainly never seen the CD. I would have snatched it up like nobody's business!!! LOVE this kind of sound, as you probably imagine. One of the Bandcamp comments mentions Vinterriket - I totally agree, sounds like his early/mid-era winter ambient stuff, which is what made me fall in love with that style of music in the first place. If you happen to see another copy floating around, please let me know! I stand at the ready too - eBay alerts in place.  Please share your thoughts once you've spun it buddy!

Ooh, I love it when artists do their own takes on Middle Earth! From Bo Hansson's seminal prog album to John Sangster's big band jazz four-album set. Even David Arkenstone's stuff (less than I would expect given his name), Jon Anderson and company, and so on.... (hmm, maybe there's a thread there).
So I'm getting a big kick our of Dream Quest Middle Earth - the music for Rivendell (I've just started) is a great concept, even if it wouldn't be my first choice.
Keep on posting - this whole thread should be turned into a book! Though, I'm guessing it would also only need about 25 copies printed, sadly.

Hey Sean! I figured if you were still checking this thread once in a while, you might get a kick out of Dream Quest - I remember you saying you were into Berlin school stuff. So if you also like Middle Earth, you'll love this! And thank you also - I'll have to check out the references you make to other Middle Earth-inspired music.
And yeah, you ain't kidding about the 25 copies, haha. I can probably accurately say that this thread has kind of turned into a collective blog of sorts around dungeon synth, and even on the grand ol' internet, there ain't many of those! Reddit has a pretty active space, and there are review blogs here and there, but I'm guessing one could list all the internet resources for DS on a few hands and feet. I love keeping the flame alive. Thanks for your continued interest!
