“Hope Lies North’’ was written, performed and produced by Heretic for this episode.

Samuel Barriball a.k.a Heretic is a musician from the small town of Ngatea.  Heretic has been recording and mixing his own music as a way to provide a form of escapism for himself and his listeners.  With themes that are generally centered around high fantasy and Lovecraftian horror, Heretic provides a portal to unearthly realms centered within the mind through lengthy instrumentals constructed from heavy basslines and sweeping, atmospheric guitar melodies.  You can find more of Heretic's music on spotify by searching "Heretic Free of Flesh" or going to www.heretic666.bandcamp.com
