Parachrism

Frotting Christ while Parachrism's bones are definitely in dungeon synth, what makes this album really special is the addition of contemporary electronic and (especially) new age elements. Favorite track: Thorn Radiance.

cosmick This is a truly experimental album, and you can really feel the freely flowing creative energy throughout the whole album. I would LOVE to hear a fully electronic album from DIM someday. The electronic beats in the track "IV" left me wanting for more. I also love the feeling of light and purity that this album gives, as well as the artwork.
Favorite track: IV.

sjöhäxan Wholly unique and wholly DIM, Parachrism is a genre-bending work of art that is lush with textures, strong returning melodies, and forward movement into new realms. It’s incredible what DIM is able to capture within their art and share with the world in this form, for us to unravel and enjoy in its ethereal beauty. As always, this album is one to return to, as it shifts and evolves with each listen. Favorite track: Thorn Radiance.

Available at Dungeons Deep in cassette form:

For my family, Hannah, Ingrid, and Liesel. Parachrism, a name honed from many sources. Years in the making, like every album before it, is an amalgamation of whatever I have become. Parachrism is about forcing evolution, emotional extremes, and the sacrosanct aspects of beauty itself. Parachrism is a fever dream of the GOOD and the LIGHT.

I've fought with this album more than any other before it, as the hue of light changes in the tunnel that leads to the end. You will probably hear that, or feel it. Precious are the years of life, sacred and scarce are the ways in which that life can be truly purified. Watch out for your chance! Mix oil & balsam, consecrate with unknown white substance and anoint accordingly.

The road is weary, yet your chalice is filled. Walk a while...

Thaur ar duin valin, ar ilvaer en 'geria' venin ad.

about

DIM Nova Scotia

For an era, being steeped in the sonic palettes of Basil Poledouris, Biosphere and Maurice Duruflé, DIM was forged in a bathing, incongruous light. DIM's music began garnering a devoted following within the dungeon synth community with his album, "Compendium I". Ten more would follow, including works written as Satchel Bearer, Atrium of Time and more as a composer for video games. ... more
