Urku Llanthu

A pioneer in the Dungeon Synth genre, based on the atmosphere and ancestral Andean culture. Originally from Ecuador.

Focusing on this genre, he employs aesthetics and themes typically associated with black metal, applying them to atmospheric and often melancholic compositions.

This self-produced solo project primarily centers its compositional approach on the narration of escapist themes, rituals, and ancient experiences of the original inhabitants of the Andes Mountains.

🏔️ A structured approach deeply immersed in ancestral Andean mysticism, literature, myths, and legends of the peoples settled in this region of the world.

Their music features melodic, harmonic, and mystical rhythms, with a strong foundation in ancestral Andean melodies, blending ancestral mysticism and Andean occultism with a diverse array of instruments from this region of the Andes Mountains. All these sounds are amalgamated under the harmonic accompaniment of the piano, which provides support and shape to the Dungeon Synth genre. A characteristic of this broad and universal genre is its dark atmosphere with a highly immersive art style that draws on culture, legend, fantasy, myth, and reality.
