intro reminds me of a kraftraum special for some reason :)

Italian Disco hiding the blues with some Edgy (U2) aftertaste. Happy track that makes me smile. Could be more adventurous structure wise though. Great atmo!

very fun melodies, love the retro percussion sounds you got out of it

after all the brooding dark atmospheric stuff in this round (which I love) - this is a welcome bright happy jolly tune. makes me smile.

Ah, an uplifting track with no dark undertones! The ending puts me in mind of JMJ.

@Taron
Thank you so much for sharing your presets (at Discord). They were a good base to start from! :)

Thanks to all followers and last month's track liker. :)

-------------------------------------

When the call of the ancestors echoes through the night, the shaman knows that new trials are beginning to stir. 
Within the circle of forebears he finds that quiet, ancient force that prepares him for whatever is to come. 
From ember, breath, and remembered wisdom the Iron Runes (Járnrúnar) arise — symbols of transformation, forged for those willing to grow from within and step strengthened into a new dawn.

Wenn der Ruf der Vorfahren durch die Nacht hallt, weiß der Schamane, dass sich der Schleier vor neuen Prüfungen lichtet. 
Im Kreis der Ahnen findet er jene leise, uralte Kraft, die ihn befähigt, dem Kommenden standzuhalten. 
Aus Glut, Atem und erinnerter Weisheit entstehen die Eisenrunen (Járnrúnar) – Zeichen des Wandels, geschmiedet für jene, die bereit sind, aus der Tiefe heraus zu wachsen und gestärkt in eine neue Zeit zu schreiten.

nJoY.
