REIÐ by Maya Fridman
"In the middle of the journey of our life, I found myself within a dark woods where the straight way was lost" - Dante Alighieri, Inferno
As much as I try to find the right words to describe the intention behind this album, I repeatedly come to a dead end.
It is as if I go for a walk in a deep forest: one part of me wants to get lost in the unknown territory, while the other lingers on the familiar. By trying to make meaning of the world around me, I search for compositions that reflect something eternal, irresistible to change and corruption. Reið means this journey, and the feeling that one world dies somewhere, and a new one emerges with every blink of my eyes.
