Brokilon is the first release on the Arcane Chapel bandcamp, which seems to be a future place for more releases by the creator Ziri. A fantasy, ambient take on The Witcher is unique, but the way Zireael employs the sound is truly fascinating. Instead of an expected dark symphony, Brokilon is spectral with its melodies, which are more like ghosts than monsters. Zireael's blend of lofi drone and spectral electronics is a treat for any who find themselves lost in the woods.
