Here's 'Shub-Niggurath', my latest piece of Lovecraft-inspired audio horror and the second in what is currently planned as an 'Outer God' quadrilogy...

these are really cool
how do you actually go about making these? hardware synths, digital instruments?

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! And nope - every single sound you hear in all my music* is created in real time on guitar & bass, literally everything; it has to be, because that's all I know how to play I have to think waaaay outside the box to come up with some of these sounds, like the crashing surf and sort-of-cathedral-organ sound in 'Innsmouth Midnight Mass', the wind and the cathedral bell in 'Hymn to Yhashtur', the deep-sea creature sounds in 'Siren Songs in the Twilight Ocean', etc. etc.
*the one exception being the 'Isotopes' set by the Cziltang Brone project, which uses modified radio static in a few pieces.
