The Cycle is a journey. A story of light, dark and twillight; Of failure, struggle and overcoming; Of a lost world and what remains.
Atleast that was the goal for this album, wether it succeeded is up to you.
It's been in the works for over a year, slowed down by struggles with mental health and life in general, but atleast I hope it resulted in some enjoyable music.
Special thanks to my friends Icky (@BeaverBoops)and Catbot (@wehingsounds) for providing remixes and to Iineo (@iineo) for creating the coverart
This album is a solid 7/10. I love the old-school music in there, but some of the songs just feel like random melodies plastered everywhere. This is the beginnings of Ponies At Dawn though, and their artists have improved massively over the years so I'm glad we still have a relic from their collection! cherriesarelit
