Tir are a solo project originally from Turkey but now resides in Australia and has bene featured before in this zine and plays a mixture of dungeon synth and dark folk and this is a review of his 2021 album "Persepolis" which was release d in 2021 by Brilliant Emperor Records and is a re-mixed expanded and re-imaged version of his 2019 release.
Dungeon synth style synths start off the album while also adding in a variety of many different sounding keys. When drum beats are utilized they also give the music more of a militant and epic atmosphere along with the music also bringing in a dimension similar to what can be heard on fantasy movie soundtracks.
All of the tracks sound very different from each other while some tracks also add in a small amount of dark nature sounds. Elements of folk and neo-classical can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with a couple of the tracks also being very long and epic in length as well as one track also adding in a brief use of acoustic guitars, touches of ambient can also be heard quite a bit throughout the recording and the whole album also sticks to an instrumental direction.
On this recording Tir takes his previous songs and adds in new touches to expand on his mixture of dungeon synth and dark folk as well as keeping everything instrumental. The production sounds very dark while the song themes focus on ancestors from the ancient past.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album form Tir and if you are a fan of dungeon synth and dark folk, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Daemon Of Desert (Azi)" "The Dragon King Raised An Army" "Blood Red Desert" and "Forgotten Prophecy". 8 out of 10.
