Thousands Of Pathways

Siahońnia Ŭ Nas Kupała

This is an album about the circle of life and death, light and darkness, about nature and its duality...
It begins with Eikthyrnir which represents life because from its horns it creates the rivers, and ends with Andleg Umbreyting which means Spiritual Transformation , and represents death.
Its a very personal and spiritual album where we put our fears and beliefs.

Tunridor (feat. Thomas von Wachenfeldt & Janne Posti)

The text of this song was created from the two Belarusian traditional spells against thunderstorm. One of them ("Piarun-Piarunie") was used at the time of harvest. Authentic performance of it can be found in the short film "Movement of the Earth" - "Рух Зямлi" (www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4Sj5_hQ6mo). It is probably one of the few texts, preserved through direct folk tradition, that contains an appeal to pagan deity (Piarun), not to his Christian substitutes. Another part is based on the spell from the book of Polesian spells, recorded near Homel in 1982. It was used in case of meeting thunderstorm while traveling.

This song is a part of ancient spring/early summer ritual coming from south of Belarus and north-eastern part of Ukraine. "The Burial of the Arrow" involves singing, dancing and the burial of a specific object, coin, doll or simply some metal object (may vary from one village to another, as well as lyrics and melody of the songs). As per words of the latest bearers of this tradition, it is done with the aim of causing rain and making the land fertile. It has pagan origins and, according to some theories, in the ancient times was performed in honor of Piarun. Per some sources, "arrow" in ancient times meant lightning. This ritual survived both Christian and Soviet times and is held in many places till today. "Burial of the Arrow" is included in the List of Intangible Historical and Cultural Values ​​of Belarus.

Jak pušču strału pa usiamu siału
Och i oj, luli, pa usiamu siału

Oj, laci, strała, da j uzdoŭž siała
Och i oj, luli, da j uzdoŭž siała
Nie čapaj, strała, dobra mołajca
Och i oj, luli, dobra mołajca

Pa tym mołajcu płakać niekamu
Och i oj, luli, płakać niekamu
Mamka starańka, siastra maleńka
Och i oj, luli, siastra maleńka

Žana mołada, dzietki drobnyja
Och i oj, luli, dzietki drobnyja
Tam dzie mać płača, tam raka ciače
Och i oj, luli, tam raka ciače

Dzie siastra płača, tam kryničańka
Och i oj, luli, tam kryničańka
Dzie žana płača, tam rasy niama
Och i oj, luli, tam rasy niama

Як пушчу стралу па усяму сялу
Ох і ой, люлі, па усяму сялу

Ой, ляці, страла, да й уздоўж сяла
Ох і ой, люлі, да й уздоўж сяла
Не чапай страла добра молайца
Ох і ой, люлі, добра молайца

Па тым молайцу плакаць некаму
Ох і ой, люлі, плакаць некаму
Мамка старанька, сястра маленька
Ох і ой, люлі, сястра маленька

Жана молада, дзеткі дробныя
Ох і ой, люлі, дзеткі дробныя
Там дзе маць плача, там рака цячэ
Ох і ой, люлі, там рака цячэ

Дзе сястра плача, там крынічанька
Ох і ой, люлі, там крынічанька
Дзе жана плача, там расы няма
Ох і ой, люлі, там расы няма

Across the endless desert, where the wind still carries the forgotten voices of ancient deities,
“Dunes of the Old Gods” awakens.

This track is a slow ritual —
dub bass rising like heat from the sand,
sub-frequencies trembling beneath the dunes,
and echoes shaped by the earliest myths of humanity.

Here, the old gods never died.
They sleep beneath the desert, waiting for sound to call them back.
Every beat, every pulse, is a whisper from that timeless world —
a blend of Sumerian rhythm, dust, memory, and divine silence.

Step into the dunes.
Let the ancient ones breathe again.
