Chorus: A Halting of tides, where the moon has no sway Our Domain must freeze, til we pass this dark day Verse: Here was the place Where kingdoms drew their breath Unholy threat now grows I’m left with one choice I’ll stop the flowing curse And seal the horror away A glacier through my home Where children used to play A Halting of tides, where the moon has no sway Our Domain must freeze, til we pass this dark day My family to be cursed To save the greater good I hope if our world thaws Gratitude will heal my guilt Frost will spread and seal All living things away Now only I remain To carry forth our hope. A Halting of tides, where the moon has no sway Our Domain must freeze, til we pass this dark day (instrumental bridge) (repeat chorus)

about

"Plunged into a divine slumber, our Hero’s path is adjourned until he is old enough to wield the fabled sword. While seven long years pass slowly, the Hero’s watcher takes flight to seek out his fellow Sages of legend. A perilous search awaits this Wise One across this mystical land, and he’ll soon learn that he’s not the only one Pursuing Thaumaturges…"

A fantasy synth adventure best enjoyed with headphones in the midst of nature. Inspired by the dungeons, temples, and fields of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Download includes a short narrative that coincides with each track.

Hardware: Yamaha PSS-A50 - microKorg - EHX Mel9 - Korg SP170 - Recorded into Cubase 10, along with "found sound" field recordings from Western Massachusetts

Cassettes were new Maxell UR 60 minute tapes. This was my first time producing cassettes, so minor errors may be present. Since I am a novice, I bought cassettes that were too long, so there is about 12 minutes of silence on the end of Side A and 10 minutes of silence on Side B. This can be avoided during playback if you ffwd ~90 seconds after track 5 concludes.
