About the album

A forgotten tale, long buried beneath the snows of time, is about to be retold. "Midvintersagor" ('Midwinter Sagas') is the first music ever composed by Örnatorpet, a landmark in both personal and artistic discovery. Originally self-released in a small cassette run, this unaltered reissue allows listeners to experience the album exactly as it was conceived – pure, unrefined, and brimming with the wonder of creation.

At its core, "Midvintersagor" is a soundtrack to an unwritten legend. Each track weaves a narrative steeped in medieval fantasy, channeling the essence of forgotten folklore and the grandeur of winter’s stillness. Inspired by the interludes and atmospheric passages of 90s black metal, Örnatorpet sought to craft an instrumental world as evocative as the landscapes of his native Sweden. Since its inception in 2018, Örnatorpet has become one of the foremost torchbearers of dungeon synth. With no formal musical training, he followed only instinct and inspiration, carving out a path that has since led him to the forefront of the genre. "Midvintersagor" is where that journey began – an unpolished gem gleaming with the spirit of discovery, now unearthed for a new audience to behold.
