Guillaume P. Trépanier Very very very good album, the feeling of escape is present from the first seconds and keep up until the end. The sound textures are beautifully crafted and put together. I had chills throughout the tape.

Well done to Verdant Wisdom too, your releases are all absolutely magical. <3 Favorite track: Gwragedd Annwn, the Lake-Dwellers.

about

"YR HEN OGLEDD is a collection of 'poems' exploring the Brittonic legends of the 'Old North', and the lives of it's inhabitants. Among them were bards, wizards, kings and giants. These poems are a tribute to those legacies, and the ancient and sacred land that offered long forgotten solitudes."

This first volume takes us to the ancient hills of the "Old North" of Britain. Details of this period have been mostly forgotten, though it's story and spirit is legendary. Had it not been for the ineffable poems of bards and travelling poets, these tales of solitude, magic and long-forgotten beliefs might have slipped into obscurity. Although a region maimed by conflict and war, there still survived an intimate, and very ancient spiritual presence in the land. Isolation was everywhere, and it is amongst these lonely hillsides that our journey begins.

flies the coop
by Hole Dweller

supported by 15 fans who also own “Yr Hen Ogledd”

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure. brantly

flies the coop II
by Hole Dweller

supported by 12 fans who also own “Yr Hen Ogledd”

My favorite out of the three I believe.The sound is more aggressive and fits the cover art of what looks like a perilous journey for the protagonist. Fits well at being the second in the trilogy of albums. Every song is good and the cassette tape and package is of good quality. A Great buy that deserves a vinyl edition. Joshua Laleina

Citadel ◊ Forest ◊ Sovereign
by Utred

supported by 11 fans who also own “Yr Hen Ogledd”

This compilation manages to bring together one of the most prolific and acclaimed, and most unique if I might add, artists of the modern DS scene. Utred was a fan favourite from the beginning and all of his releases were instant classics, but unfortunately very rare and hard to obtain. With this particular release Gondolin Records made justice to this great Russian project, bringing together his best racks and offering them to the greater public! Gabriel Tamas
