🔥 Embers of the Forgotten 🔥

In a world long silenced by war and whispered legacy, "Embers of the Forgotten" breathes myth back into memory. This dark fantasy concept album fuses cinematic folk, ritual ambient, and gothic symphonics into a sweeping saga of fading oaths, hollow thrones, and ancestral rage. Each track unfolds like a lost chapter, steeped in chantwork, spectral strings, and cavernous echoes.

Through its haunting soundscapes and lyrical incantations, the album traverses forgotten battlegrounds, broken bloodlines, and cosmic trials. It beckons listeners to confront the remnants of power—who deserves to wield it, and what sacrifices remain in the ash.

🔗 Themes woven throughout:

The decay of dynasties

Memory as ritual

Fire as rebirth and judgment

The duality of silence vs legacy

The gods we shape through grief

This album doesn’t ask to be heard—it demands witness.

Sanctum of the Forsaken Name

Whispers Beneath the Flame

Crownless at the End

Embers of the Forgotten

Elegy of the Wanderers

The Hollow Reign

Serene Despair, the unique concept EP driven my by life-long interest in mythology, especially the dark female entities. Staying true to the lore but told through a different lens, one that is a sonic soundscape and narrative through first and third person lenses. Today mythological entities such as the Gorgon (most famously Medusa) are diluted and misunderstood and represented in modern culture. 

Either the utilisation of their names directly as an adjective in passing, the dilution of such rich and full mythological narratives is a tragedy in my eyes because their historical meaning, narratives and symbolism was deeply embedded and had large impacts in times past that has become lost and not truly represented. This track of Serene Despair, never directly mentions the Gorgon by name. Instead, I have reclaimed and told the narratives being respectful to the lore and modernising it with some of my own unique additions to make it both enjoyable and accessible to casual listeners and further rewarding to those who appreciate mythological lore. 

Lyrics: 

Maze of the Serpentine Gaze

Entering…
Assembling Stones Obliquely
Coil a Slithering Structure.
Leaving…
Exits are Shifting illusions
circling you like a Vulture.
Shadows, have you Surrounded
by a Shapeshifting Maze.
Hissing, Disjointed echoes
disorient you for the Serpentine’s Gaze...

You Summoned Me
Your Deterministic Nihilism leaves you No choice
Screaming into my Maze
amidst the Void where you have no voice
You’ve accepted me and
long to look into my Eyes…
Simple, Instantaneous,
No Gore,
Gone… 
I’m where everybody Dies…

You see the Snakes of your Sins Slithering,
Binding you in place…
A figure, indescribable in Nature,
you are drawn immediately to her Face…
Your Life flashes before Her Eyes…
True Beauty, Horror, 
the Impossible,
spectrum of Existence in a single guise...

You Summoned me
Your Deterministic Nihilism leaves you No choice
Screaming into my Maze
amidst the Void where you have no voice
You’ve accepted me and
long to Look into my Eyes…
Simple, Instantaneous,
No Gore,
Gone… 
I’m where everybody dies…

You are Stilled in place...
hearing Flickers,
of the Maze Shift.

It's Enclosing...
Still made of Stone,
but somethings changed…

You're Decomposing...

Experiencing True Rigor Mortis...
It's Becoming One with the Stone....

It’s Serene Despair...
Suffocating in Air...
A Waking Mare...
The Disfigured Abomination’s Celestial Beauty
 all stemming from Her Stare...

You Summoned Me,
I summon the Labyrinth of the Departed...
A obelisk piece.
Hope’s End,
before it started.
Simple, instantaneous,
No Gore,
Gone… 
I’m where everybody dies...

The Gaze of the Serpentine
proves Myth’s Poetic Empty…

If a Hiss echoes,
and there is No way to Perceive?
Was there ever a Maze?
A Gaze?
With No Perception,
to Deceive... 
Did anything Enter?
Was there Ever
anything to Leave...?

A hypnotic, sensual descent into midsummer ecstasy. Nightshade Simmering Secrets is my conceptualised modern era Siren song.

Blending dance pop, progressive melodic house & techno, and synthwave, Nightshade Simmering Secrets seduces with lush, layered vocals, deep pulsing bass, and shimmering synth lines. The track tells the story of a mystical Siren whose voice ensnares, drawing her prey into a ritual under the eclipse.

Witchy harmonies, haunting refrains, and a hypnotic beat swirl together like a midnight tide - inviting you closer, until escape is impossible.

Nightshade Simmering Secrets
Written and Composed by Antoin Gibson

The midsummer Nightshade eclipse is underway
Shadows intensify the senses,
synth Waves Sway
Our bodies’ sensuality is Rising with the Tropic Heat
Synchronized like a Tidal Wave,
our Body’s Currents Electrify
Pulsing with the Beat…

Lights may be Out for the whole of the world
It’s the perfect chance to Wade while every body’s Whirled
Thrills of sizzling summer secrets await
while the Nightshade keeps us Submerged
As long as we are Undercover
what is between us will be Purged…

Dark summer Nightshade eclipse is underway
Shadows intensify the senses,
synth Waves Sway
Our bodies’ sensuality is Rising with the Tropic Heat
Synchronized like a Tidal Wave,
our Body’s Currents Electrify
Pulsing with the Beat…

Shimmers Spray to the rhythm like we’re on the Ocean Floor
Sweetness Transpires,
stardust Perspires
as bodies intertwine and soar
Our simmering Secret Turns Ecstatic
Magic we can’t ignore…
Smouldering Embers fly to the beat.
The Light returns
there’s No Need to Say more…

The midsummer nightshade eclipse is Underway
 Shadows intensify the senses,
 Synth Waves Sway
 Our bodies’ sensuality is Rising with the Tropic Heat
 Synchronized like a Tidal Wave,
 our Body’s Currents Electrify
 Pulsing with the Beat…

The midsummer nightshade eclipse is On Its Way
Sunlight Intensifies,
Tingling the Senses
Smooth synth Waves Sway our Bodies’ Sensuality

Pulsing with the Beat…

Nightshade Simmering Secrets

Condemned for crimes beyond counting, he sought to cheat death itself. But the void does not forgive.

In his final hour, shadows seized him, his body shattered like glass, and a voice named him anew: Charon, the Ferryman.

Now he rows the river of souls, every scream a toll, every ripple a debt. No longer mortal, no longer free — he is bound to ferry the damned until another dares defy death.

Rise of Charon - The Ferryman

Forged in shadows and lit by starlight, Night Stalker fuses ancient war chants with crushing electronic bass. A cinematic journey into the myth of the unseen guardian — where the battlefield meets the cosmos.

Night Stalker

I am nothing more than a figment of your imagination.
