~Songs of Light, Songs of Darkness~
Daniel Heland is a composer and music producer based in Austria.
From frame drums to mouth harps, from folkish pipes to nyckelharpas, from ethereal choirs to large orchestral arrangements, the music is deeply rooted in the Fantasy genre. It evokes worlds of myth, struggle and an ancient beauty - soaked in cinematic atmosphere and profound emotion.
"Like a young fox jading beneath thick roots, I crawl under her cloak of mist. I lie beneath her ancient knowledge of death, and yet I am unafraid."

Thank you for making such beautiful music like these...... I am intoxicated in the mysterious, fantasy, unique world you create. English isn't my native language, sorry for not finding more suitable ways to express my thought. Appreciation from Taiwan
Thank you very much for your comment in English! I appreciate it. Greetings to Taiwan! :)
Very happy and grateful to have you back my friend! This masterpiece is so magical... the chorus adds the epic part and the backround art is simply perfect. You will always have my like!
Thanks again for your support! I'm glad to be back. I was working on other musical projects, but now I'm focused on this channel again and will release more music :)
I love this! The choir was such a joy to listen to, especially those choir bends at 2:00
Thanks so much! Hey btw, aren't you on Greg's (Secession) Discord? I think I know your music from there. Great work :)
@@DANIELHELAND Yes I am. Thanks a lot :)
Enthralling! Probably my favorite of yours so far
Thank you! This track means a lot to me, I'm happy to hear it resonates with you.
Wow, this is amazing!! The atmosphere, magic. It is really mesmerising, Daniel, you are a genius!!!
Ben, this means a lot to me! Thank you very much
where is this art from?
I generated it with Midjourney. I am very much into Surrealism / Fantasic Realism. Midjourney makes it possible to explore that and publish it along the music which it inspires.
Nice background
Thanks! It inspired the music.
Really powerful. Excellent work. Keep it up!
Thank you for listening and leaving your feedback. I'll keep at it :)
Profound and dramatical, this is an exquisite song! Thank you for share with us your art my friend, as always you had a fan in me.
Thank you for alway being here to support my music! I appreciate it
great music! what kind of choir did you use?
Hey, thanks a lot for getting in touch. I used choirs/vocal libraries from Strezov Sampling (Mostly Balkan Vocal Quartet taking the lead) as well as patches from Ethera Gold Atlantis. I combine those two developers a lot in my music. The solo voices from Atlantis add definition to the Strezov choirs. Additionally, I did record some whispers mysef and processed them. I think it's the combination of realistic libraries and sounddesign that gave this track it's particular atmosphere.
The gregorian chorus was the finest addition! Another magnificent song my firend.
Thank you, I appreciate your support! It is an Orthodox Chant. Orthodox Chorals are amongst the most beautiful pieces of music I ever heard, and they are a big influence for me :)
This is a track with similar inspirations and some live instruments as well: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gISXr86tdZiucqQ.html

Hairþra (plural) is a word coming from a now extinct East Germanic language called Gothic. It translates to „entrails“ or „guts“, but in a figurative sense it can mean „heart“ as well. Words are symbols. To me, Hairþra can be a symbol for something that is buried or hidden in the within, not just in a physical sense, but with a historical or a spiritual meaning; obscured, yet vital.

"A light that cannot be taken from us"... Thank you all for your support!
Awesome music☺which software did you used to create this masterpiece ?
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you like it. My DAW is Reaper. I use Kontakt, SINE (Orchestral Tools) and Engine (Best Service) to load virtual instruments. The instruments themselves are too many to mention :) I combine and layer libraries to find the right sound. My favorite developers are Spitfire Audio, Orchestral Tools, Eduardo Tarilonte, Strezov Sampling and lots of smaller developers as well. Please let me know if you are interested to know more details ;) It's actually one of my favorite topics :)
@@DANIELHELAND yess,
@@koustubhd883 Alright! The choirs are Wotan and Storm Choir Ultimate (Strezov Sampling) and Metropolis Ark 2 by Orchestral Tools. The other voices Shambala by Strezov Sampling and Ethera Gold Prometheus. The Tagelharpa is by Karoryfer Samples. Brass and Wind instruments are mostly Ark 2 and Modus (Orchestral Tools). The classical long strings are Peteris Vasks Strings by Orchestral Tools, the Short Strings Pacific by Performance Samples. The other "non classical" strings are by Strezov (Jade and Balkan - those libaries are more flexible than just Asian/Balkan sounds). The percussion is mostly Zero-G Elements Cinematic Rhythms, Hans Zimmer Percussion (Spitfire) and LA Modern Percussion (Audio Ollie). There many other small sounds included, most of them transformed in my DAW to blend together and create atmospheric soundscapes.
@@koustubhd883 Please feel free to reach out for any additional questions!

Thanks for the support 🖤
"When we become acquainted with our destiny in times of distress, we might suddenly feel a strange familiarity with the chance of downfall. As we accept our trial, fear passes like dark clouds torn by a winter sun, and nature's cold air infuses us with unexpected strength."
I don't know if that's your own quote or something from a game. Either way, it's a nice quote ! 👍👍👍👍
Thank you @@alurusluna1186! These are my own words. I want to add more quotes from my own writing to the music in the future. I'd be happy if my listeners do the same. Both words and music tell a story :)
👍👍👍 Supporting your friend!

Thank you so much Mark! I am happy to hear that you enjoyed it.
Theres something magical&beautiful about your music .
Thank you for your time - for listening and sharing your feedback. I really appreciate it and I'm happy you enjoyed it.
At the beginning of the song melancholy invaded me, the soft and slow atmosphere filled me with a strange sadness... But then the song ascended and I understood that the dawn had arrived and that the sun was rising. At that moment I was invaded by an immense joy, so precious that I almost burst into tears. Lately I've been a little sensitive because of a lot of things that have happened in my life and I think this song caused me so many feelings for that very reason. Right now as I write this some tears are falling from my eyes, but I am smiling, they are tears of joy. You are a gift my friend. ¡Please keep going! This song reminded me of the words of Professor Tolkien: "Yet dawn is ever the hope of men"
Thank you so much for sharing your story! Messages like this keep me going - I'm grateful to know that the music evokes emotions and paints pictures in your mind.
Caballo, eterno amigo del hombre y mas que un hermano, el da coses cuando le azuza su montador, cuando también de su nariz le sale el fuego, caballo que un día cerrara sus ojos y se perderá en el olvido la holladura de sus cascos.
Thank you for sharing your words! I am glad the music inspired you to do so.
