A Path Within A Path, by Seabuckthorn

A Path Within A Path

by Seabuckthorn

supported by

magoski
The path of prophecy
is a footstep
in damp earth,
a hand reaching
toward another

The ancestors knew this.
They wrote it
in their stories,
in their myths,
in the inner corners
of their grief.

They knew
that prophecy
is simply memory
moving forward in time—
the old wisdom
learning to live
in new skin.

They knew
that we carry them
not as burdens,
but as compasses—
each one pointing
toward the purpose
we share.

Editions Vaché Always a joy to grab the new Seabuckthorn !! Claire Deak performs on our fave track ! ss/tm/am Favorite track: Neither Trace Nor Ghost (feat. Claire Deak).

Built Upon a Fearful Void
by William Ryan Fritch

Incredibly atmospheric and eerie music from this multi-instrumentalist composer. Known for his award-winning documentary and narrative film soundtracks, he blends experimental, folk, and contemporary classical into a delectable melange. There are two gorgeous suites included in this release, but to give an idea of what to expect, my favourite track is A Pale Mare. Nickie Harte Kelly
