All instruments played and recordings made by Benjamin Burns, apart from the following: 
Ocean: Waves crashing against a pebble beach, recorded in Hastings by Phil Burns. 
Storm: Banshee vocals meowed by my cat Salem. 
Quasi Adagio (Derrysallagh Remix): A remix of 'Quasi Adagio' by Béla Bartok, from his collection of pieces For Children. Piano played by Géza Anda , 1954. 
Polly Vaughan: This song is an old Irish song, sometimes called Molly Vaughan. Vocals were performed by the wonderful Sive. The harp is sampled from 'Dragonfly' by The Angels of Venice. And the Shakuhachi flute is sampled from 'Honshirabe' by Miyata Kohachiro. Big shout out to Tim Nairn for introducing me to some of the great folk music that inspired this version, including Anne Briggs take on the song.

October Fire: Thank you to freesound user SoundIntervention for the excellent fire-crackling sample: www.freesound.org/people/SoundIntervention/sounds/113510/
