"Are you a witch?" and other questions | a little Q&A
Hey lovely people,
it's been well over 2 and a half years I kept spamming you at least intermittently with songs and videos on this channel, so I thought it was about time, that I properly introduce myself. I am in no way a person who enjoys the spoken word much, but I tried my best to create a little, hopefully informative, Q&A for you. The only question I was actually asked out of all of them was "Are you a witch?" - the rest are questions I thought might be of interest and tell you a little bit more about who I am.
Hope it's not too boring and if you actually have any more questions let me know in the comment section and if there are enough I might make another video like this (when it's less rainy preferably outdoors).
Beltane, Walpurgisnacht and May Day Blessings to all of you who celebrate,
lots of love
Syl/Valdkynd

Hey lovely people, this was supposed to be recorded outdoors and it actually was...but...it was very windy and my audio got destroyed, so I rerecorded it indoors. Sorry for the dull visuals, but at least like this I can sort of create something with a half way decent audio track. 1. Improvisation on an Arabic Scale by Valdkynd 2. Irrlichterreigen by Valdkynd 3. Once we're gone by Valdkynd (you ...

Feeling a lot of sadness these days, so Cohen suits the mood. Decided to delete the short version and give it a go with the whole song... Sorry, sound and setting are not great (used the camera mic and a reverb effect the Shotcut software offers) and I sang the lyrics from memory without first looking them up...so please forgive me, if I made any mistakes... It's been hard to motivate myself to...

A small glimpse of a song in progress. This one is called "mourning for a dying world" and it deals with the sense of grief I feel when I think about the state of our nature and our fellow beings which get slowly but surely dragged into extinction by a human industry beyond our control, fueling habitat destruction and climate heating... For how much longer are we able to witness the precious mo...

Something I wanted to write and record for a long time... A little statement of how I perceive the world - needed to be in my mother tongue, but I am sure I will record something similar in English some time soon. It's called "Warum ich Menschen meide..." (literally: "Why I avoid people...") and deals with how ugly we treat each other, our fellow beings, the planet etc. and why some of us feel ...

Hey everybody, it's been a while since I last uploaded an actual video. Things have been going incredibly slowly, my husband and me have not been well during winter and were on top of it awfully nocturnal.

None the less there will be new videos again, it's just a question of time.

Переглядів 2073 місяці тому
Hey everybody, as it is a bit quiet round here and I am not really able to create any new videos or songs, I wanted to at least share a tiny little cover I recorded of the "Wolfsong" (Wolfslied | Vargsangen) from one of my favourite childrens' books (and films) by Astrid Lindgren. The song was set into music by composer Björn Isfält. I am here singing mostly the German verses, but added one (ba...
Valdkynd feat. Setril (Withania) ~ Legenden (metal version)
Переглядів 2484 місяці тому
Dear lovely people, 19 years ago I've written a song called "Legenden" (engl. "legends") in German language for my 2nd ever Valdkynd-demo. As I recently felt like re-recording this particular song (check out my version with keyboard and voices: ua-cam.com/video/x0EB18K6da4/v-deo.html) and noticed that its chromatic shifts could make it work really well as a metal song, I asked my friend of 20 y...
Noël Nouvelet - a dream of calm and snow

Noël Nouvelet is a traditional French Christmas carol from the 15th century... Hey everybody, a calm and inward little wintertime greeting to all you lovely beings. I wish you health and time for the things and people, who really matter to you. We currently don't have any snow (it's very rare round here), so the scenes you see in the video are actually from 2018, long before I started to make v...

Hey everybody, I was maybe a little too hopeful re coming up with new music any time soon. Whilst I actually had two days on which I had time to play my harp again, I had not enough time nor inspiration to actually write and record, but maybe this changes again as we slowly move further into the dark half of the year... So in the meantime I just want to send a little greeting and some love from...

Hey everybody, let me take you on another little walk on beautiful Dartmoor, this time near Grimspound, a place with ancient remains of a Bronze-Age settlement. Heather and gorse have started to flower making the moorlands look autumnal. We met a small heard of Highland cattle and after sunset mist or low clouds moved into the valley, casting a magical light over the scenery. Hope you enjoy the...

    Here is an English transliteration of the lyrics: Why I stay on my own... The day's all gray in gray, no smiles are coming back, I'm walking all the way reluctantly staying on track... You gossip, laugh and fight, one needs the thickest skin. I'm waiting for the night but all too soon it's bright again. There's waste in the shrubs everywhere and animals suffer and die 'cause too many of us just don't care, just drop it, shrug and walk by... The outside looks just as neglected as so many of us feel inside... All the big things and small things connected, and yet our hearts still so blind? And you're wondering why I stay on my own, walking fullmoon-lit forests all overgrown, making friends with animals and trees, playing harp and singing for flowers and bees... And you're wondering why my back is all turned, and I need to escape to the Other World, whilst I dream of adventures in silent nights, of campfires, snow and Northern lights... I miss a time and space where we really see one another not our status, class, looks or race us as beings, sisters and brothers. No longer judge at first sight before we have even met, where the future looks all bright and diversity is our best bet. Where no populism or greed can divide us anymore, where no one is ever in need, empathy down to the core. Where no animal in the world has to suffer or die for us where it's all about deeds not just words and there's mutual care and trust. And you're wondering why I choose a plant-based life stay fighting to keep our green alive? Cause as little harm as I possibly can keep litter-picking, try to stay who I am? And you're wondering why I choose to give, instead of hunting a career and money myth, quietly despairing, but knowing her worth, still believing in the good on this earth. It's so painless to abstain..., if we do it out of love, yet there is so much to gain, as we look below and above. No form of consumption can heal what we are lacking in this place, stop pursuing the money, for real, it means killing the earth and the human race. And another war just erupted again, as we still haven't learned after ages of men, and we think all the others will just sort it out but we're silently killing ourselves without doubt. And I'm wondering, how we're still carrying on, keep laughing and sing an occasional song, because it is only a small relief for broken hearts in a world full of grief. And you're wondering why I'm rarely writing a song, prefer wordless vocals and a harp-play-along? Quietly weaving some magic for you, as my thoughts are just too disturbing and blue...
