Spire's Edge from Mantlecraft by Bield

This track charts the precarious moment of departure, a sonic cartography of the edge where familiar desolation gives way to uncharted vastness. It’s born from the sheer, wind-scoured precipices that define the Gloom Spires, a geographical inspiration etched into every strained frequency. Here, resin harps, stretched thin and bowed, carve out abyssal space, while granular shifts in pitch create a disorienting ascent—a unique production detail designed to evoke true vertigo. Memory shard percussion echoes, not just as rhythm, but as the sound of remnants rattling against immense, unseen depths. The deliberate intertwining of high, keening frequencies with low, earth-dragging drones generates a sensation of verticality that is both unsettling and magnetic. This push beyond familiar sonic confines marks a significant, perhaps even unsettling, growth for us; it’s a stark representation of how far we were willing to step into the unknown. It’s a challenging listen that offers more than just sound; it offers the very feeling of imbalance at the precipice.

Bield crafts instrumental soundscapes that stretch time itself. Using modified strings, custom percussion, and layers of sustained tones, we create slow-burning compositions that feel both primitive and timeless. Our music builds gradually, pulling listeners into meditative states where minutes dissolve.
