This spell is the first Merseburg charms, which are old germanic incantations preserved by the christians around the 9th century, in Old High German language. The spell is a "Lösesegen" (blessing of release) that recounts how a group of Idisen—female spirits, deities, or fate-weaving beings—broke the bonds of warriors captured in battle. The final two lines invoke the magic words: "Leap forth from the fetters, escape from the foes," a command meant to set the warriors free. Disclaimer: throatsinging is not attested in germanic tribes and therefore this song do not represent it. It is just my personnal way of singing. Same with my facepainting and feathers: my art is rooted in prehistoric/paleolithic influences and these attributes are common to all humans worldwide. I don't wish represent any particular culture but the legacy of all humans, we're all related somehow through prehistoric tribes. Translation: Once sat the Idisi, They sat here, then there. Some fastened bonds, Some impeded an army, Some unraveled fetters: Escape the bonds, flee the enemy! Vid by @ila_on_the_moon Drum by @meinlpercussion #drum #drumming #throatsinging #oldlanguage
"Ṷariṷedi̭ā" ("Dawning Prayer") is a prayer in reconstructed Gaulish language. Gaulish is an extinct Celtic language spoken in parts of Continental Europe before and during the period of the Roman Empire. Gaulish was the language of the Celts of Gaul (now France, Luxembourg, Belgium, most of Switzerland, Northern Italy, as well as the parts of the Netherlands and Germany on the west bank of the Rhine). Disclaimer: Throatsinging is not attested in Gaulish tribes and therefore this song do not represent it. It is just my personnal way of singing. Same with my facepainting and feathers: my art is rooted in prehistoric/paleolithic influences and these attributes are common to all humans worldwide. I don't wish to represent any particular culture but the legacy of all humans, we're all related somehow through prehistoric tribes. The legacy of Gaulish may be observed in the modern French language and its rural dialects, in which 150–400 words, mainly referring to pastoral and daily activities, are known to be derived from the extinct Continental Celtic language. This language was spoken approximately 2400 years ago. This work is based on Steve Hansen and Bellouesus Isarnos book "Anthologia Gallica".

Prayer to the light ☀️ Gaulish is an extinct Celtic language spoken in parts of Continental Europe before and during the period of the Roman Empire. In the narrow sense, Gaulish was the language of the Celts of Gaul (now France, Luxembourg, Belgium, most of Switzerland, Northern Italy, as well as the parts of the Netherlands and Germany on the west bank of the Rhine). The linguistics material is based on the work of Bellouesus Isarnos found in "Anthologia Gallica" Disclaimer: Throatsinging is not attested in Gaulish culture and is just the way I sing. Edit: a little mistake in the last subtitle, it's "Ad Loṷkon Ai̭ṷī Agaṷnon/ To the Guiding Light of Eternity" (same meaning though ;)) Instrument (kashaka) by @asaratopanman #kashaka #asalato #throatsinging
This spell is the second Merseburg charms, which are old germanic incantations preserved by the christians around the 9th century, in Old High German language. This spell can be found in several european cultures and similarities can be found in Atharvaveda hymns from Ancient India, hinting an ancient Indo-European roots. Disclaimer: throatsinging is not attested in germanic tribes and therefore this song do not represent it. It is just my personnal way of singing. Same with my facepainting and feathers: my art is rooted in prehistoric/paleolithic influences and these attributes are common to all humans worldwide. I don't wish to represent any particular culture but the legacy of all humans, we're all related somehow through prehistoric tribes. Translation: "Phol and Wodan were riding to the woods, and the foot of Balder's foal was sprained So Sinthgunt, Sunna's sister, conjured it; and Frija, Volla's sister, conjured it; and Wodan conjured it, as well he could: Like bone-sprain, so blood-sprain, so joint-sprain: Bone to bone, blood to blood, joints to joints, so may they be glued."

I always had a deep fascination for lord Shiva, and I wanted to make a tribute to him through my music that I offer humbly. "Aṣṭottaraśata" means "108" in Sanskrit and refers to the 108 names of lord Shiva. Disclaimer: throatsinging is not attested in Indian culture and therefore this song do not represent it. It is just my personnal way of singing. Same with my facepainting and feathers: my art is rooted in prehistoric/paleolithic influences and these attributes are common to all humans worldwide. I don't wish represent any particular culture but the legacy of all humans, we're all related somehow through prehistoric tribes. Shiva, one of the principal deities in Hinduism, has deep pre-Vedic and Proto-Indo-European roots. In his early Vedic form as Rudra, shares striking similarities with Proto-Indo-European deities: an ambiguous deity both destructive and healing. This duality is similar to the Greek Dionysus, who is associated with ecstasy, animals, and untamed nature. Rudra’s connection with Wodan (Odin) in Germanic traditions has also been noted, particularly in their roles as storm gods and wanderers. The lingam (phallic symbol) used to worship Shiva finds parallels in Indo-European traditions, such as the phallic symbols in early Greek (Dionysian), Norse, and Irish religious practices. Shiva/Rudra's form evolved through a synthesis of indigenous and Indo-Aryan traditions, absorbing elements from both animistic and Vedic sources. His association with asceticism, wild nature, and destructive-creative forces makes him one of the most complex deities in Hinduism, reflecting a deep continuity between early Indo-European spiritual beliefs and later Hindu traditions. I designed the rhythmic structure of the song on a pattern following this number: · the bonang played on the very first loop is a 27/16 beat cell (structured 6+6+6+3+3+3), it needs 4 cycle to make 108 ·the claves have a 9/8 beat cell (strucured 4+4+4+6), it need 6 cycles to make 108. Same with calabash which have a 9/8 beat (structured 3+3+3) ·the frame drum have a 12/8 beat which needs ·the kick drum have a full cycle of 27 beats which is a quarter of 108; it also lead the sections of the songs by cycling by 4 or 8 (2 cycles) to make the different part of the song. #throatsinging #shiva #rudra
Will you find the cinematic reference ? ⬇️ Esperanto is an international constructed language and the most widely spoken in the world. Developed by L. L. Zamenhof in 1887 as 'the International Language' (la Lingvo Internacia), it was designed to serve as a universal second language for global communication. Those who first embraced the language were drawn to the name Esperanto, which they adopted to refer to it. The word itself means 'one who hopes' in English. Zamenhof, born in Białystok, was deeply affected by the division of the town's inhabitants into separate ethnic groups—Russians, Poles, Germans, and Jews—each with their own language and a sense of enmity towards the others. This environment shaped his idealism and belief in human unity. Raised to believe that all people were brothers, Zamenhof felt the painful contrast between this ideal and the harsh reality of language-based division. As a child, he was tormented by this separation, but he resolved that, once grown, he would work to eliminate this division and promote understanding among people.
