Fata Morgana – Fata Morgana (1995)

August 14, 2020

If you think dungeon synth is cheesy then walk away now, because this early side project from dungeon master Mortiis is just that. A far cry from the endless unfolding single-track monstrosities which birthed his synthesizer career, Fata Morgana is instead more wondrous, more celestial, and dipped in a healthy coating of a sticky, melted yellow substance that you would usually find on burgers and hotdogs. That said, this is a stunning record, and the perfect soundtrack to a D&D sesh, or to listen to whilst playing your favourite RPG or reading some immense tome of fantastical content and proportion. Otherworldly!
