this is such a wonderful compilation. i listen almost everyday rn. thank you for this!

I really like it! Gently calms you down! Thank you! I hug you!

De tre bukkene bruse som gikk til seter for å gjøre seg fete. I read this story to my son these days. And when I was a boy in the norwegian kindergarden I played the large goat that rammed the troll under the bridge.

A norse gael blows, roots strong and deep, tall stands the oak tree, we sway until we sleep...

I began compiling music for this mix over 7 years ago. It started as a faint calling, to gather a mix of slow irish airy mysticism which had always haunted me. The more i listened, the more i realised i had only been scratching the surface. As the years went on it became a journey of rediscovery and a journey of coming home. Born and raised on the island of Ireland, I left eagerly when i was 21 never really feeling quite part of the culture growing up. Now some 15 years later i increasingly feel the urge to re-connect with this heritage i am so fortunate to have.
And upon travelling to Norway, i felt compelled to include music from the Nordic traditions also, feeling so at home in these lands and just as so with it's music. Thank you to all the wonderful musicians for keeping the fire burning. And thank you to these lands i love so well, harbours of hearts, eternal source of wonder... 

Home is in the mountains, our heart is by the sea,
and wherever those two shall meet, you will find us joyfully..

Ufordian Mixtapes

Peter Power - Home is in the Mountains (Mixtape)

Born on the island of Ireland, finding a home in the Pyrenees via Berlin and Bahia. Over the years, however diverse, peter's sound is immersed in a growing sensitivity of atmosphere. Finding perpetual inspiration in the massaging forces of nature. 

Cultivating sheer presence is at the heart of the process,

 Between ancestral echoes and contemporary waves. Shimmering ripples shake into life. A playful dance of atmospherical alchemy. 

 Between the silence, a careful kindness.

Ever glowing...
The warm hum of
home.
