Discover Northern Hush: Nordic Ambient, Ritual Folk and Lo-Fi

Frozen fjords, snow-covered forests and the northern lights shape the world of Northern Hush. The music project brings together Nordic folk textures, ritual rhythms, cinematic ambience and soft lo-fi pulses.

If you are discovering Northern Hush for the first time, the catalogue offers several places to begin. Follow the ritual folk thread, explore the lo-fi releases, or spend an evening moving between them. Here are three tracks and two EPs to help you find your starting point.

Three tracks to start with

Ravens of the Fjord

For an introduction to the project's Nordic ritual folk side, start with Ravens of the Fjord. It is one of the featured tracks on the Northern Hush website and a starting point for listeners drawn to the project's folk and folklore themes.
