Taiwaz

**Taiwaz** is the dark electronic brainchild of musician Blake Judd, best known as the founder of the experimental black metal band Nachtmystium. Launched around 2018, Taiwaz dives into brooding synthwave and industrial territories, blending pulsing beats, haunting synths, and occult-inspired themes. Judd’s signature atmospheric intensity carries over from his metal roots, but here it’s reshaped into a cinematic, shadowy soundscape perfect for late-night drives or dystopian daydreams. Recent releases like *The Uninvited Guest* (2023) and *I Am All* lean into hypnotic rhythms and introspective lyrics, reflecting Judd’s knack for merging raw emotion with gritty electronic textures. While Taiwaz stays deliberately enigmatic, its music speaks loudly—a moody, genre-defying escape hatch for fans of darkwave and beyond.
