Musik kommer alltid att inspireras av miljön där den skapas. Med dess otroliga utbud av varierade landskap som sträcker sig från vita glaciärer, mossgröna fält, djupa fjordar och frosttäckta berg till svarta stränder, har Island producerat en mängd originella och starkt individuella band som Sigur Rós, Björk, och självfallet Sólstafir. Bandet släppte albumet Berdreyminn i maj tidigare i år och tillsammans med Seasons of Mist bjuder vi nu på en exklusiv videopremiär av låten Hula från denna platta.
Sólstafir säger själva:
“When we were on the road in 2013, we came across this place, Hill of Crosses in Lithuania. At the time, we just knew that we would have to shoot a video there one day. We developed a good working relationship with Vesa and Harri back in 2015 with the ‘Miðaftann’ video, and since they are both living in Finland, it seemed a good idea to send them over with the boat from Finland with the camera and help us fulfill this dream of ours.”
Videoregisören Harri Haataja tillägger:
“This time we set out to do video for Sólstafir outside of Iceland. Aðalbjörn Tryggvason had this beautiful location at Hill of Crosses in mind and we thought that it would fit perfectly for this clip. We also found a couple of other great locations suitable for the story and aesthetic that we had in mind for our video.”
