Barrow Hoard Records

Friday, February 23rd - BHR’s first major store update of 2024, featuring some long-harbingered releases from some DS mainstays, and much more. Stay tuned!

Coming in this Friday’s Hoard Haul: BHR010 - Kirmukarmu by Lovi.

I can’t say enough good about this record. Ever since hearing Lovi’s “The Caverns of Lempo” for the first time, I knew I had found something special. Something like dungeon synth, but so meditative, authentically medieval, organic, and acutely human that it almost felt like something else entirely. And then, Lovi came out with this record, which built so wonderfully on all of the foundations that Lempo laid for it.

Two years later, after many messages sent back and forth, gaming together, and finally breaking bread with, and enjoying karhu beer and authentic sauna Löyly with the composer, I must say that it is an absolute honor and a true joy for me to be able to bring this album into a physical form. I hope you all enjoy it!
