This release by one of the greatest 'Nordic' folk bands, Nytt Land, first saw the light of day in the form of a digital self-release in 2016. It is finally presented for the first time here on physical media. On the track 'Drakkar', Nytt Land are joined by Siberian ambient-folk legends Liholesie. A great many instruments were used here, including: tagelharpa, frame-drum, flutes, jew-harp, tin whistle, drums, and, as witnessed on their acclaimed Cold Spring releases, special throat singing. Over 25 mins of music. Digipak. Highly recommended
