Nanook - Qaammat Seqinertut VINYL

This acoustic vinyl 'Qaammat Seqinertut' is very special and contains 11 tracks:

3 unreleased new songs, acoustic versions of old songs, instrumental guitar and grand piano songs. 

The album starts out with a brand new song, the titlesong; Qaammat Seqinertut, and is a melodic emotional song where Frederik's vocal is very present and makes a unique atmosphere involving simple instruments making it honest to listen to. The other new song; 'Kigarneqartuarami' is darker in the mood and is inspired by the huge pressure there's been towards Greenland resulting in consequences that can be felt as human beings. The third new song; 'Qilanaarneq' is an instrumental guitar song which sounds positive and has an up-tempo energetic mood. The handpicked songs are being expressed in a very much down to earth way and have soothing smooth sound that make it all very authentic. There's been room for 3 instrumental piano songs as well performed and arranged by Mads Røn from the band - very nice and calm piano songs played on a grand piano, where you can hear the full body of the piano.

The vinyl edition has a front cover painted by Christine Montague. Cover: ’Dark Water’:

This painting has been described as both haunting and beautiful. It depicts a polar bear pausing mid-swim in a still, dark sea, its body twisting back on itself like a question mark. One is left to wonder: how far beyond the canvas does the sea ice—so essential for hunting, resting, mating, and denning—begin? The dark water also alludes to the albedo effect.

The rest of the vinyl cover contains artistic visuals with animals and ice crystals incl. lyrics of the new songs and info about all the included songs.
