Release description
Firecracker Recordings first Mac-talla Nan Creag release - a collaborative ambient and drone affair shot through with audible references to traditional Celtic music and ancient rituals - was something of a triumph, so it's little surprise to find that this follow-up is just as good. Producers Lord of the Isles, Hoch Ma Toc and Other Lands (AKA Fudge Fingas) have once again delivered the goods, serving up some sensational, otherworldly sounds inspired by an archeological dig on Ben Nevis. The centrepiece is undoubtedly the slowly unfurling brilliance of "Ballad Of Glen Nevis", a 17-minute epic full of delay-laden Celtic vocal harmonies, gentle pianos and out-there ambient refrains, but there's plenty of similarly inspired material to be found elsewhere on the set. Just give the clips a listen - you won't be disappointed.
