Yoiking with the Winged Ones is a polyphonic sound project by Ánde Somby.[1] Somby is yoiking in concert with the sounds of nature.[2] Yoiking is the ancient chanting practise of the Sámi People, an indigenous people of northern Europe.[3][4] The album edition of the project is due to be released by Ash International as a vinyl record in January 2016.[5]
The project is performed and produced by Ánde Somby, an artist deeply rooted in the yoik tradition. In this project, Somby contributes to the tradtion of yoik with pretty epressive[clarification needed]yoiking.[6] According to PassiveAggressive he is almost on the border of the human voice.[7] Somby's yoiking has been described as having the energy that punk rock had before it was tamed in the music studios,[8] with Klassekampen comparing Somby's work to that of the English punk band Cockney Rejects.[9]
There are four tracks on the recording. The recordings and post production were by Chris Watson, a sound artist and sound recordist from Newcastle upon Tyne. The sampling of sounds took place in Kvalnes, Lofoten in June 2014.
The artist A K Dolven, living in Kvalnes and London has been instrumental and important in developing the concept, and produced the album's cover art.[10] The production was supported by the Sami Parliament of Norway.[11]
The title references stories about the mythology of faeries and elves, and the recording was inspired by the Arctic climate.
