New album: Bárut: Min árbi – Our Heritage

Sep 8, 2023 | Music

Bárut (Sámi language for wave) makes music where old musical traditions meet! 
Norwegian and Sami traditional music is performed in a modern soundscape where intense grooves are mixed with joik, vocal riffs and goat horn! Bárut is relentlessly inclusive and thinks that all cultural expressions can talk together; With goat horn, kudu horn and didgeridoo at the front, Bárut presents Norway's rawest line of brass instruments! This is ancient music with nerve!

Marja Mortensson and Daniel Herskedal, new album: Lååje – Dawn

Oct 17, 2019 | Music

The Norwegian Grammy Award Winners Marja Mortensson and Daniel Herskedal are releasing their first duo album together, aptly named LÅÅJE – DAWN.

Mortensson’s and Herskedal’s music transcends borders. As such, their music moves effortlessly through the borderlands between South and Ume Saami yoik melodies, where it finds itself swinging back and forth between tradition and the musical compositions of classical string quartets. The melodies imitate standing stones, carefully rooted menhirs, who guide the listener from the gravity and melancholy of a planet finally speaking up against our treatment of her, to the playful yoik melodies associated with woodpeckers and ptarmigans.
