With their third full-length "Byrjing" ("Beginning"), BYRDI are taking the important step from a highly respected underground act to an established force within the realm of Nordic folk. The Norwegians have recorded their third album with the participation of percussionist Kjell Braaten, who has performed live with Wardruna among other bands on several occasions as well as various other guest musicians including Mathias Gyllengahm (Utmarken, Norrsinnt) on nyckelharpa (keyed fiddle). "Byrjing" shows BYRDI in an almost intimate way and while their music may easily be labeld as "Nordic folk", the Norwegians foremost sound like themselves.
First time on CD! - New Stereo Mix and Master.
Classic Jewelcase Edition w/Obi-Strip
„Eventyr", the debut record by Norwegian folk-act Byrdi, shows the work of two musicians, creating the first touch of something bigger than we – as humans – are. On the occasion of the band's tenth anniversary, Eisenwald re-releases the album digitally and – for the first time – on CD.
Since the first version was unintentionally released in mono, now the record got a stereo treatment – newly mixed by former band member Jørn Øyhus in his own Bergart Studio and mastered by Greg Chandler (Priory Recordings). It features a stunning artwork by David Thiérrée and a new, expanded layout, created at House Of Inkantation, with archival footage from the phase while the album was recorded.
With „Eventyr", Byrdi delivered a fresh take on nordic folk – authentic, handmade, emotive, and unique. A reflection of personal spirituality, seen through the lens of nature and lore. Now fans of dark, hypnotic music, who like to indulge themselves in the melancholic beauty of moody acoustic guitars and chants, can finally take their chance to add this 2014 released gem to their collections – in its definitive version.
