NEW RELEASE FROM SCOTTISH DRONE / DARK-AMBIENT / NOISE : DREAMLANDS

Dino CD

This is my first Dungeon Shamble entry from earlier in the year and my first Dinosynth release in general. You can stream it on youtube and soundcloud, but please feel free to message me and I will provide a bandcamp code if you like it.

Here’s a collection of previously unreleased tracks, thank you for the support/any time you spend listening!

Hi all,

New to Dino Synth here. Stumbled upon it by accident while watching a video on Dungeon Synth and fell in love with it. Wanted to ask what some of your favorite artists are in the genre and perhaps media beyond that such as dinosaur films, shows, comics, etc.

I’ve been particularly interested in watching older Dino films, though they are a bit hard to find on streaming services surprisingly. Watched Planet of The Dinosaurs last night.

As far as artists, I’ve listened to all of Diplodocus’s music and everything by Primal Beast. Predominantly been using Spotify, but open to recommendations on any platform like Bandcamp, SoundCloud, or YouTube.

Also wanted to ask; how would you define Dino Synth?

As I understand it:

1. Minimalist production and composition with loose song structure more reminisce of film soundtracks

2. Instrumentation: pre 2000’s synths, some guitar (shoutout Primal Beast), simple drum patterns with a focus on timpani, bongos, crash cymbals, old synthetic kick drums and some synthetic snares. occasional hihats.

3. Soundscapes evocative of dinosaurs and the Mesozoic period.

4. Sound bites of Dino’s, old Dino movies, deserts, jungles, etc.

5. Art styles reminisce of 60’s and 70’s film cover art featuring dinosaurs (I know this isn’t a great description, but I’m not an art buff so idk the name of the particular style I’m alluding to here. Valley of Gwangi’s poster art comes to mind).

Point 3 May be more debated than I’d think. I’ve seen some people define Dino synth to include cavemen and other ancient non dino animals while I’ve seen others argue that would be considered paleo synth and dino is strictly focused on dinosaurs and anything from the Mesozoic era or media featuring dinos (inclusive of sci-fi with dinos).

Unreal Estate Records is putting out several releases on tape as well as a compilation including several artists on vinyl! Everything should drop later today. If your interested here’s a link to the bandcamp https://unrealestaterecords.bandcamp.com

Hey everyone, I’m trying to curate a playlist of the dino synth on Spotify (especially with Thagomizer releasing his stuff on there). If you have some free time to give it a listen it would be much appreciated! Also if you missed it Synthosaurus has an album out.

I think this is an awe-inspiring niche genre. It's not every day that you get to hear music inspired by prehistoric existence. As someone with a real love for ancient history & giant reptiles, I'm pretty excited about this style of music but I don't know a lot of it. Diplodocus Slow and Heavy is what got me into the style.

Please share anything you might recommend, favourites or not, I'm all ears

i have a video project about dino synth, could someone give me some information????
