about

“Sunne and Mona” (“Sun and Moon” in Old English) reflects my own cycles of change and evolution over the past year.
Each of the eight tracks is rooted in a traditional melody from the British Isles (Scottish, Irish, and English Renaissance), interpreted through my own drumming (tamborines and framedrums) , whistles, and a selection of other melodic instruments. I have set all of them in a dancefloor-ready foundation of tribal beats and deep bass: intended for the ecstatic dance experience, flow-arts performance, or pure pagan revelry!
The cover image is my own work, a 24”x24” acrylic painting representing the cycles of the day, the moon’s phases, and the solar year. It depicts the the sun and moon as they are envisioned in northern mythology - drawn around the sky by horses and pursued by wolves - until the end of the current cosmic cycle.
