The Pilgrim, by Willebrant

The Pilgrim

by Willebrant

supported by

Iker GS One of my go-to albums for my hiking sessions: minimal, pure, crystalline ambient music that doesn't feel invasive and let you enjoy your surroundings and magnify the experience.

Perfect music for pilgrims, indeed.

Noah Clean, minimal ambient - very easy to zone in or out. I'll be using this for my late night wind-downs for awhile!

d york This is an incredibly calming and meditative work. Good stuff! Favorite track: The Pilgrim.

Sounds Vegan "I swim past corals and see colourful fish scurrying away from me. The light above my head gets brighter and brighter – until I finally brake the surface with my head. A flock of birds awaits me. The third song flows smoothly into the fourth one ('The Pilgrim')..."

about

Warm, rounded, and peaceful minimal drone.

A tunnel of sound to the soul of pilgrimage.

This album came about after I sustained a foot injury from my day gig and had some time to rest up.

I started watching a bunch of documentaries on "El Camino de Santiago" an interest of mine as I have experienced parts of the trail on my trips to Spain over the years. I am intrigued by the determination of the human spirit to complete the path and the various stages of contemplation that occur on this journey.

This is just one interpretation in sound.
