Description
Estonian fiddler and vocalist Maarja Nuut's 12-track full-length album In the Hold of a Dream arrives June 3, 2016, leading listeners into an ambient, looping electronic retelling of the village musical traditions of pre-war Europe. Nuut's spellbinding storytelling is an extension of a hushed, minimalistic technique that creates a 21st century intersection of fiddle, vocal etherealism, and a looping pedal rerendering of the artist's lucid dreams as they meet reconstructions of Estonian folk traditions.
"Estonian singer/violinist Maarja Nuut operates at the point where traditional folk meets contemporary classical music, applying hypnotic, minimalist modes to rustic tales of birds and horses." - The Independent
In the Hold of a Dream proposes a melancholic, haunting evocation of Nuut's dreamworld, offering the listener the ability to fluidly travel between the artist's realities, whether rooted in resurfaced Estonian mysticism, experimental soundscapes, or classic storytelling bent to electronic, looping currents. Her latest offering directly builds off of motifs from her previous album Soolo (2013), which culled inspiration from her research into early 20th century field recordings, and their interplay with contemporary vocal
harmonies. -
