Drakh: Norrssken

One listen for this one.
Early on I tried to move less toward describing what was happening but I wasn’t quite able to. Overall I think I covered the song well enough but I also know that I could’ve done much better.

Drakh’s “Norrssken” is from Bethlehem.

I hope you enjoy.

Faint wisps float here and there, and layer into themselves without expanding. a slight lingering from them as they fade into something new and similar, shrinking into form and a low rumble appears, murmuring rather than striking out.

For a moment that rumble holds court, then the other sounds return. Something moves forward, then suddenly pulls away, and the sounds are growing more prominent in places. They are moving to the foreground as they play the quiet among the noise.

A beat suddenly appears and takes lead, or at least it seemingly does. It strikes with a shudder and a force, and with it something akin to a voice moves alongside. Everything else is there, perhaps following along, or moving around it. Perhaps they do not know the beat is there, and perhaps there is danger in this.

The beat fades away and the sounds continue their moving in trails and wisps. They appear here and there and they hum and harmonise, and there is a great history that doesn’t exist within them. They show in moments and they linger as they change and fold into themselves.

The wisps are all that is left; they continue on until one final moment where they then disappear and the song ends.
