Doing well, I hope. Today is a good day. Salt Lake City-based dungeon synth\/fantasy ambient artist <strong>Fief<\/strong> released his sixth LP after almost exactly 5 years. Like many dungeon synth nerds before me, and I&#8217;m sure plenty to come, Fief was my first introduction to the genre and remains one of my favorite artists in the scene. I didn&#8217;t even realize that he had a new album coming out until around midnight last night when I found a post on Instagram stating that there would be a new release today at 10:00 EST. Going to bed last night felt like going to sleep on Christmas Eve as a kid (albeit with a much easier time falling asleep than I had as a child).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 420px; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3002536629\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><span style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fief.bandcamp.com\/album\/vi\">VI by Fief<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Dungeon synth dinguses of this distinguished doodoo depository, I am pleased to inform you all that this one&#8217;s a banger. It&#8217;s all the things you&#8217;d expect it to be, plus purple! If you&#8217;ve not yet fallen victim to the delicious delicacy of dungeon dorkiness, this album could be a good one to start with. I warn you though, the slope is slippery, the folks are friendly, the tapes are all-too-affordable, and you truly never get tired of buying them.<\/p>\n<p>Looking for more recommendations for artists to start with?
