About The Podcast
**********************
Every podcast compiled & mixed by Ginger Vag has a story to tell. 'Warriors' podcast idea was conceived after a long trip she had in Scandinavia from South to North.
Fjords, glaciers, Baltic Sea & Vikings were her main inspiration to compile a mix to represent mostly artists originating in North.
Her desire was when someone comes to listen to it to be encircled by eternal mountains, unmelted snows & frozen waters.
Apart from the ambience of the selected tracks, she also searched for natural & wild percussions within the tracks that would put listeners in a war mood.
One of the main artists she came across is Swedish Ulf Soderberg, whose unique productions talks about sunken cities, fallen towers, overgrown ruins & forbidden Gods.
His one of a kind dark eerie soundscapes and ritualistic drums, are combined with his own field recordings from places like Iceland, gloomy Nordic forests & deep forgotten catacombs.
Podcast was mixed in her home studio using Traktor. After that, 'Warriors' intro durated about 10 minutes was built upon the mix with Ableton Live by her brother, sound designer & producer Endov Lane
and finally, the mix had a bit of a mastering process with Sound Forge.
These are her words to every listener :
'' Every single day is a very hard battle for every single one.
The most powerful weapon we can be is to become an instrument of inner Peace.
This mix is inspired by the Vikings but, it is dedicated to everyday WARRIORS.
Special thanks to my brother Endov Lave for this one,
for the construction of 'Warriors' intro & for being the tough Sound Warrior he is.
Thank you for listening,
for spending your value time to listen to the story I have to tell.
I'm fighting hard not to be wasted. ''
