Druadan Forest is an evocative musical project that delves deep into the realms of atmospheric black metal and dungeon synth, masterminded by Finnish multi-instrumentalist V-Khaoz, also known for his work with V-Khaoz and Vultyr, among others. The project's name, a nod to the Druadan Forest from J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, perfectly encapsulates its mystical and otherworldly ambiance. Druadan Forest's music is characterized by its epic soundscapes, rich in haunting melodies and somber tones, transporting listeners to enigmatic and ancient landscapes filled with lore and legend.

The project's discography is a continuous journey into the heart of darkness and fantasy, with albums like "Dismal Spells from the Dragonrealm," which offers a suite of compositions blending heavy, doom-laden riffs with eerie, synthesized textures. Meanwhile, releases like "The Lost Dimension" and "Portals" further cement Druadan Forest's reputation within the underground metal and ambient communities. Each track, sprawling with majestic keyboard work and dark, whispering vocals, invites audiences on an introspective quest through forgotten realms. With "Ravenwinds on My Path Towards the Entrance into the Cold and Lonely Mountain," listeners can expect an intense and solitary trek through chilling atmospheres and majestically bleak soundscapes that speak to the artist’s finesse in creating worlds within music.
