nvald This is one of those albums that I didn't knew I needed before hearing it. If Shpongle moved to the forests of Sweden it'd probably sound something like this. Brilliant! Favorite track: Molaren.

EspressoFox Unbelievable musical craftsmanship is skillfully employed to blend traditional Scandinavian folk music into superb psychedelic electronic music. I don’t think the duo is planning any future releases (outside their Prose Edda remaster), but I would be ecstatic if they did, given how meaningful this record is to me. Favorite track: Sub Serum.

Richard Devlar Help! Someone stuck folk music into my psybient and it's amazing! This wasn't at all what I expected when I hit play, but such an beautiful synthesis. Favorite track: Celestial Lights.

about

Folktronica is the mutant child of Scandinavian Folk music and Electronica.

This album sets out to discover this new path. It blends acoustic instruments and jojk captured in the Kurbeats studio with digitally rendered soundscapes created by Andreas and Mathias.

Backed up by Scandinavian tradition and with their roots deep within the electronic music scene it lends itself to a bigger crowd, this album is for everyone.

Kurbeats takes you on a journey, from a shaman's tent, a wild ride through the kosmos to the heart. With this release the duo continues their story, that began with Yggdrasil - Prose Edda. Only, this is the true beginning.

Folktronica gives you what Prose Edda merely hinted. So hold on to your seats, here we go!
