Good news everyone: it’s not ambient! : Gold Is Little Comfort For The Kinsmen Dead
“ Gold Is Little Comfort For The Kinsmen Dead” - Norse proverb.
This is what comes from hanging out with bards, apparently. A little thing built out of samples of ancient Northern European ethnic instruments: the Celtic Carnyx war horn, (pictured), the bodhran style skin drum of the Sami tribes of Scandinavia, and the Norse Tagelharpa three string bowed lyre, (the lovely, lovely Tagelharpa), augmented with a totally ahistorical gong (a Far Eastern instrument, it didn’t reach Europe until the 1600s) and vocals somewhat reminiscent of the ancient Kulning style of Scandinavian cattle-calling. (The nearest a Blocswave sample pack could get, anyway.)
All samples arranged in Koala and recorded live into AUM on iPad. If you like it, throw a coin for the Witcher.
It’s still low-effort not-music, probably. But at least it’s not ambient!

I love this one! Its dark atmosphere and haunting vocals sound great. I also really like the subtle percussion. Well done
Love this @Svetlovska!
Nice!
Amazing soundscape (not sound ape as my iPad tried to auto correct) great stuff.
You are really talented, @Svetlovska!! You always paint a world I want to visit. I always find myself looking around when I listen to your stuff. I don't know what I'm looking for, but I think its because you are forcing my mind to "wonder"
Absolutely brilliant work! This piece is sort of Ambient in a way that it creates atmosphere, but also isn't Ambient at the same time.
Art. This piece is art.
This makes me want to do some pillaging.
Very, very fine @Svetlovska.
Seems a little ambient, though…
Did anyone else hear the title in Professor Farnsworth’s voice?
Oh for heaven’s sake, this is crazy good! For some bizarre reason it makes me think of what Dead Can Dance would sound like if they started using angle grinders and buzz saws. This is doubtless due to it being 3.18 AM and my brain being addled, doubly so after hearing this!
Wonderful.
Thanks, all for those kind words, I’m glad it found some favour with you. I found the sound of the Tagelharpa very inspiring, so raw and so, somehow - raunchy? I used it for the bass scrape at the start, and the looping rasp all the way through, but I want to explore that sound more in the future. What I really need is a full Decent Sampler pack, with multiple articulations… or an actual Tagelharpa!
I’ll leave you with yet another phenomenal Norse quote.
“Better to stand and fight. If you run, you’ll just die tired.”
Gotta love those crazy Vikings!
No idea what that was but it was good !
I like the way you give your notes about how and why you create your music, and often a background story or information. This track is really stunning. I love Viking imagery and stories and this piece really works very well. (Even with the gong, which definitely adds to it!)
Absolutely - the combo of the words and music is always more than the sum of its parts, and that’s really saying something when the parts themselves are nearly always 10/10
