I had loads of fun composing this album. This is my 2nd album, and it's far more experimental than the previous works. Some of the songs were composed to be more "cinematic soundtrack"-like, to give the listener a more immersive experience into the story, so, far more Ambient / Atmospheric. I've used a lot more instruments and several different objects. Wood and Iron played an important role in this album, as well as experimenting more with voice and breath.
Thirteen songs, each is a celebration throughout the day, from Dawn till Nightfall. Celebrating the day just before the New Moon. It's an album dedicated to Najia-í, the divine of the moon, and Veloden Kaavahrin (Pale-Child Hart), the offspring of the moon, of which I shall speak of in future posts concerning the lore and myth.
