Our Take

Ah, DRAUGURINN's latest offering, Spira (LIMITED A5 Digi), is like a whirlwind of Icelandic mysticism mixed with a heavy dose of musical experimentation. This limited edition release comes in a beautifully designed A5 digipak, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the overall package.

The album kicks off with "Svartur Hestur," a hauntingly ethereal track that sets the tone for what's to come. The use of traditional Icelandic instruments mixed with modern electronic elements creates a unique sonic landscape that draws you in from the very first note.

Tracks like "Niflheimur" and "Helvíti" showcase DRAUGURINN's ability to create dark, brooding atmospheres that envelop the listener in a shroud of mystery. The use of atmospheric synths and hypnotic rhythms adds a sense of urgency to the music, keeping you on the edge of your seat throughout the entire album.

But it's not all doom and gloom - tracks like "Blakkráin" and "Rökkvísur" inject moments of lightness and playfulness into the mix, showing DRAUGURINN's versatility as a musician.

Overall, Spira is a captivating journey through the depths of Icelandic folklore and beyond. DRAUGURINN's ability to blend traditional sounds with modern sensibilities makes this album a must-listen for anyone looking to expand their musical horizons. Strap yourself in and prepare for a sonic adventure like no other.

With a name that literally translates to "ghost" in Icelandic, this artist brings a hauntingly beautiful presence to the world of ambient music. DRAUGURINN's sound can best be described as otherworldly, ethereal and deeply atmospheric. Combining elements of dark ambient, neoclassical and traditional Icelandic folk music, her music transports listeners to a realm of enchantment and sorrow. Drawing inspiration from her homeland's rich folklore and mythology, DRAUGURINN weaves tales of love, loss and the supernatural into her music. Her haunting vocals, layered over intricate arrangements of strings and electronics, create a sonic landscape that is both unsettling and strangely comforting. With a discography that includes several critically acclaimed albums and collaborations with artists such as Úlfur Eldjárn and Jónsi of Sigur Rós, DRAUGURINN has firmly established herself as a force to be reckoned with in the world of experimental music. Whether performing in intimate venues or massive festivals, DRAUGURINN's live shows are a mesmerising experience not to be missed.

Keep an eye on this rising star - her ghostly melodies are sure to haunt your dreams.
