What are you listening to?

Wales won a big football match today, and this song was sung prior to the game, awesome, spine tingling moments.

Thank you, thats a wonderful song! I really got goose bumpers when listening to it. In Austria we have a very sad anthem that brings people to sleep - which is the intention, I think. At the moment I'm telling people around me we should have another anthem, giving us more joy and power .. like the Russian one, i.e.

I had this music in my head the whole morning . . .. it is a music they play often in circuses

Yeah, me too. I hadn't heard it until yesterday before the match, it brought tears to my eyes. I'm not normally a big nationalist, but the song is so good, so universal in its wording (despite being a song about Welsh Nationalism), that I just let myself get swept up in a bit of patriotic fervour. As the chorus builds, it makes me think of it as a survivor's anthem. The singer songwriter Dafydd Iwan will get a big boost in popularity now as the song grows in our country's hearts. And good for him too, it's a fantastic song, he should be proud. As Wales will now be competing in the football World Cup in November, this isn't the last time this song will be played, the fans love it.

This is music my uncle made together with a younger man. My uncle was responsible for the everyday sounds used (and alienated), such as staircase running, birds chirping, talking, dijeridoo and much more.

The other man then transformed and compiled everything. Normally I don't listen to music like that because I don't like the electronic one, but with the background I think it's pretty cool. The song I shared came about because of a conversation in Franconian Switzerland with a Franconian beekeeper. It's about the fact that there is no more honey at the moment, but there will be some again at the end of May and he "sings" it in dialect. Maybe German forum members can understand it in some places @Aeneas

I saw (better say "heard") a very beautiful russian song with footages of the actual war/operation in Ukraine. It was visibly only posted on Telegram but re-posted on Blogger. You can find it whether :
Telegram link : RUSSOSPHÈRE - En défense de la Russie (need telegram to watch it)
Article on the blog : Echelle de Jacob
or still can try this direct link. (then click on play)

One can hear an early 80tish electronics influence...

Caught this André Rieu concert on the TV the other day. The orchestra had just typically performed a waltz number - then a guest performer appeared and this happened -

Well I was not expecting that!

My initial thought was that the song is a different version of this one.

For those of you who don't know, the ethereal singing is taken from a song by the Irish band, Clannad, and is sung in Gaelic. The main idea behind trance is it being an uplifting type of music, the change of beats throughout the song elevates a person to a state of trance. This blends in so amazingly with the heavenly singing by Clannad and also, Chicane did such an amazing job with producing this track with change of beats, ect.. Definitely one the big trance masterpieces ever made.

Either way, Geowulf's song is very very nice !!!!
