From my debut EP 'Lighthouse' produced and arranged by @Piers-Faccini
Out on 26 May 2014 (@BeatingDrum Records)

One of my favourite Ghibli scenes is from Spirited Away when Chihiro and the kaonashi rides the train on the flooded rail road tracks to Zeniba surrounded by people half faded, and then the following one where a lamp post comes to meet them by the station... The arrangements Piers made for this song really makes me think of it.

Jenny Lysander - The Thought That I Love (From Lighthouse EP Out Now)

this a tribute to wardruna and the Vikings tv show

Helvegen - Wardruna (cover)

My latest viking-themed composition! When I began writing this song, I had no idea where it would go. Originally, I was thinking of creating a song that sounded very tribal-like, something vikings would gather and dance to. I changed paths and aimed for something different, but you can still hear the tribal influence in the drums and throat singing.

I was inspired by Seiðr after reading about it in a book. I like to imagine a shaman standing by the shore, performing his ritual. That is why I included the throat singing in the beginning. Throat singing during rituals was a common practice for shamans from different era's. I felt it was appropriate and gave the song life.

I hope you enjoy it. ☺

Incase you don't know what Seiðr (Say-der) is…

Seiðr was a kind of shamanism that focused on altering the course of one's destiny. Practitioner's of Seiðr had magical/blessed ritual staves that were used during trances. While in a trance, the practitioner could travel throughout the Nine Worlds.

Wardruna - Helvegen (Live)

WARDRUNA Hagal

After the success of their previous collaboration «Skuggsjá»; Ivar Bjørnson (Enslaved) and Einar Selvik (Wardruna) are now following up with an imposing new piece entitled «Hugsjá». The word ‘Hugsjá’ means to see with, or within, the mind – and it reflects the idea that one’s mind has the potential to see further than the eyes can reach. By weaving together indigenous and contemporary thoughts, sounds and instruments, they are inviting you on a vivid journey - exploring the distant history and traditions along coastal Norway. The album is set for release through Norwegian label By Norse Music on April 20th 2018.

Hugsjá was first commissioned by, and performed at, Bergen International Festival in 2017, as part a series of concerts named Nordvegen (“the northern road”); inspired by local history and traditions in each of the places visited. The Nordvegen concerts created an acoustic and intimate basis for the grandiose commissioned work, “Hugsjá”. The piece received its world premiere in Bergen’s premiere concert hall Grieghallen, and ultimately the material was recorded and became this full-length album. Roadburn 2018 will be both the release party and international live debut of “Hugsjá”, the album.
