Welcome to Silent Hill

Episode 32

1 month ago

[Episode 32] This month barSILENCE is discovering the secrets of the fog-laden town of Silent Hill with a carefully curated tribute playlist featuring the haunting and atmospheric soundscapes created by Akira Yamaoka!

The Silent Hill series, known for its psychological horror and unsettling storytelling, is elevated by Yamaoka’s unique blend of dark ambient soundscapes, industrial noise, and trip-hop beats. This fusion creates an unparalleled legacy of unforgettable music that stays with you long after you’ve put the controller down.

It’s time for Halloween in Silent Hill. Grab your flashlight and tune in as we journey into the unknown!
