Journal
Started when the first pandemic confinement hit, this is content that celebrates my past and informs a fresh vision forward. I have a fascination for experimental and challenging music and use it to inspire my creativity and many aspects of my daily drifts, so music does take center stage here. Glad if it resonates with you in some way and you discover something new here, in which case you should explore more and support the artists. Curated by Jorge Sampaio.

Absolutely addictive doom drone project from Norway. Some 15 years ago I was working on material for a release of a mix of apocalyptic doom/drone music, mostly of the instrumental kind, featuring Sunn O))), Black Boned Angel, Nadja, Burning Star Core, Earth... and discovered this. I got in touch with all the artists involved and got to interview some of them. Voidar, the man behind Hjarnidaudi was one of them. He was kind enough to share some amazing insight into how he came to start Hjarnidaudi and the concept behind it... I have lost all that material since but I never lost my interest for his music. I just wished there was newer material.
