MOSAIC stream new special 15th anniversary collection for EISENWALD

Today, Supreme Thuringian Folklore shapeshifters Mosaic stream the entirety of their  brand-new special collection  titled  Harvest: Songs of Autumnal Landscapes and Melancholy . Recently released via Eisenwald on CD format, hear Mosaic's Harvest: Songs of Autumnal Landscapes and Melancholy in its entirety both  HERE  at Eisenwald's official YouTube channel as well as  HERE  at Eisenwald's Bandcamp.



2020 marks the 15th year since the conception and birth of Mosaic, the evocative, enigmatic brainchild of Martin van Valkenstijn.

Harvest: Songs of Autumnal Landscapes and Melancholy spans the first 10 years of Mosaic. It is a collection of early material, containing the very first Mosaic recordings which have been released previously only on very small runs of cassette tapes. To complete the autumnal feast, the orignal Samhain Celebration song cycle was added, which complements the early material and advances it to a full-length duration.




 

Harvest is an ode to Valkenstijn's beloved Thuringian homelands. It takes us on a journey through misty woods and foggy nights, when the golden sunlight of late summer must give in to the autumnal cold that starts rising from the ground, when the warmth of summer must yield to the chilling breeze that heralds the end of the year, when the light must give in to the dark. Valkenstijn's unique recitations of poems by Georg Trakl, Joseph Eichendorff, Max Dauthendey and more, together with his own original writings, evoke the scents of a fire crackling in the chill morning air, of mossy woods that lure the melancholic mind ever deeper into their enchanted depths.

Starting off as a delicate blend of the finest neofolkloristic/classical soundscapes – think Empyrium, Sturmpercht, or Rome – Harvest eventually erupts into outbursts of furious black metal in the vein of Germany's éminence grise Lunar Aurora.

The recordings were thoroughly reinvigorated without losing their original appeal by Valkenstijn in May MMXX at his House of Inkantation.

This album will be released on all digital channels and CD jewelcase with a complete new layout and artwork based on historic photographs from Thuringia. A two-sided 24x24cm poster and a slipcase with the original artwork will also included.
