NORTHAUNT & SVARTSINN

Inspired by Cormac Mc Carthy´s novel ‚The Road', the two Norwegian masterminds Haerleif Langas and Jan Roger Petterson joined forces to create this stunning split album. This release brings finally new recordings since Northaunt´s ‚Horizon' from 2006 and Svartsinn´s ‚Elegies for the End' from 2009 (both CDs released on Cyclic Law). ‚The Borrowed World' is the soundtrack for a world in decay, directed by the emotive and grandly melancholic signature of both projects. This is isolationist ambient music that unfolds its meditative atmosphere with majestic and melodic waves of droning sounds, environmental field recordings from the icy landscapes of the deepest North and magnificent Cello recordings of Amund Ulvestad.
