Info:
Hagalaz’ Runedance is the creation of Andrea Nebel Haugen. Through
her music, lyrics and writings, she explores the spirituality of
ancient Northern Europe, searching for the forgotten wisdom and
values of her Pagan ancestors.
The music has been described as "Ambient Folk" or "Pagan Folk",
yet Hagalaz' Runedance definitely has its individual style. Using
old Nordic and Celtic Folk instruments, combined with ritualistic
drumming and synth-arrangements, Hagalaz' Runedance invokes a
primal, earthly and visual mood. Andrea works together with a
variety of musicians from Alternative, Medieval and Folk music
scenes, experimenting with synth-sounds, natural instruments and
her voice. The lyrics call to the spirits of nature and Andrea
expresses her longings, passions and views upon the world. Some
songs are magical experiences, describing visions, dreams and
Seidr trances (Northern shamanism).
Hagalaz' Runedance is now known as Nebelhexë, which has more
electronic and gothic influences, thus stepping away from her old
sound. |
