Thank you so much for all your kind words, in the isolation of these quiet winter days they are very healing. In case you have missed it: Since yesterday you can pre-order our album PAGAN. Especially the strictly limited editions like for example the Vinyls and the 100page hardcover book with a CD and a DVD might be sold out very soon. Therefore do us a favour and check out this webshop and help us with your preorder through this financially challenging winter: www.music-merchant.shop/de/other-labels/diverse/faun/ - Thank you for your support!!

As a wildlife biologist and musician apprentice that attract the dogs and cat while i play violin, was great know Wainamoinen. Thanks!

I am from India and I feel we share many things in common with the world's Pagan cultures - in Europe, North America, South America, Animistic.. Live free, accept all Namaste 🙏

I’m American and I love reading about different religions and mythologies. Indeed Indian religion and mythos shares many commonalities with Pre-Christian European mythos and religion. Our prehistoric ancestors migrated and interacted with each other before they eventually settled into their modern nation states. I have always found history and culture to be fascinating and I like talking about it with other people who have an interest as well.

As a descendent of ancestors in Karelia (may grandfather Kaino Nikkannen was born in a Sauna there and fought in the Winter War) this is truly meaningful. But I would love one about Ilmarinen the smith too!

What a wonderful musical tribute to Väinämöinen. He is relatively little known and not usually featured in modern music. Thank you for remembering him, and for bringing him to our conscious awareness in this beautiful, respectful way.

God, the hurdy gurdy is such an awesome instrument.

Wish you all who are reading this comment will be happy, lucky and success in your life ❤❤❤❤

For some reason I am not sufficiently wise to articulate, this wondrous song always brings tears to my eyes. The lyrics are as compelling as a lover's caress, but in my case I suspect it is equally the rhythm -- like the slow wings of a solitary watch-raven patrolling the pure blue of a post-Bron-Trograine sky or the solemn tail-wag of a fierce but contented dog watching with growing satisfaction as you react with pleasure to a prize just fetched and laid at your feet. Which of course reminds me of the almost unbelievable good fortune that has, for nearly 82 years, brought me, despite my apparent unworthiness, the beloved and more-than-once lifesaving companionship of 18 of the finest canines one might ever imagine. Thank you, Goddess, for such lifelong blessings; 'tis assuredly as spoken by Robert Graves, whom I cannot doubt was our age's reincarnation of the great Taliesin: "...nothing promised that is not performed." And thank you, Faun, for making such evocative magic as real for us as it surely must have been for our pre-patriarchal ancestors. Blessed be!

Mal wieder ein super Lied von euch, macht weiter so 🙂🙂🙂🤩🤩
