Deruenta

by Ferhðfriðende

supported by

T.C. Pierces right through to the soul. Favorite track: Wagtail's Fancy.

Kaptain Carbon This dedication to nature as well as a marriage of folk instrumentation is a brave step into a new arena of dungeon synth that steps towards a sound that is transcendental and eternally reflective. I am considering this a 2021 release since I most certainly will be talking about it over the course of this year. Favorite track: Hæð and Fyrs.

Hagiographer This is a beautiful collection of tracks that really do invoke the spirit and feelings of the English outdoors. If you took away the ambient sounds of birdsong and wind you;d still hear it, so effective are these pieces at taking you there Favorite track: Gilded Ern.

about

An ode to the many spirits that inhabit the beautiful River Dart. Written in Eahtoða Géar - 2017

Deruenta is a Brythonic word, translated to "where the Oak trees grow", from which the word Dart is derived. From the head to the mouth, along many a stretch of the peat rich waters, springs the sacred tree of Albion. Amongst which dwell many creatures, some friendly spirits others seldom seen, some so fragile they are found nowhere else and others as hardy as the Granite bedrock itself. This is the delight of the Native Ponies company, or watching the Grey Wagtail's and Dippers at play. The reward of a long cold night beside the Otter's den for a chance appearance, or meeting the watchful eye of the Heron patrolling the banks.

"Dartmoor! thou wert to me, in childhood's hour,
A wild and wondrous region. Day by day
Arose upon my youthful eye they belt
Of hills mysterious, shadowy, clasping all
The green and cheerful landscape sweetly spread..." - Carrington

*For those who have surprisingly and kindly paid for this little demo, I thank you! Any money garnered from this release will be donated to Devon Wildlife Trust, your contributions will play a part in caring for that which inspired these melodies.*

If nostalgia for an age where creatures of myth walked together with the children of men had a soundtrack, this album would be it. Also, a touching reminder that we can forego wealth and power for wilderness and freedom, if we so choose. emanuele127
