Wild Hunt (Ambient Mix)


Listen Later

While the winter winds are still blowing, I offer you my latest single, “Wild Hunt”
The Wild Hunt is a ghostly ride through the stormy night skies of winter, said to appear in many regions of Britain and Northern Europe from late autumn to early spring. Its specific lore appears in many guises, varying by locality and culture. In my cover image, the leader of the hunt is Woden (Odin) on his 8-legged horse, accompanied by hounds, gathering up lost souls and ghosts along the way.
The track is mainly in a tribal/trance style (128 BPM) infused with ghostly wails and eerie atmospheres. There is half-time middle section which incorporates the melody of “Catherine Martin” by Turlough O’Carolan, the great Irish harper and composer (1670-1738).
The track is available now on my Bandcamp page, where a bonus ambient mix is included with the single track price. The main mix will be available on all other platforms soon!
