[MUSIC INTERVIEW] HJORT – Evolve IV-VII Interview

Obscure. Cutting. Beautiful.

Like wind in the branches of a bitterly cold winter forest.

In a quest of the perfect soundtrack for wistful, melancholic moments, get lost in the hypnotic undertow of broad walls of guitars, symphonic arrangements and
experimental sounds, coated in an eerily-beautiful melodic monotony.

hjort is the solo-work of V/Haze Miasma‘s ‚Atmosphere‘ who acts out studio project‘s freedom of creating an unique sound experience using elaborate arrangements, partly referring to realms of post-blackmetal, doom or progressive and symphonic music, simultaneously denying to be categorized properly. The aesthetics of autumn and winter, forests and mountains still are the visual keynote of Atmosphere‘s work and thus distinctly perceptible in the music.

“Evolve IV-VIII“ is the logical progression of what was started by hjort with trilogy I-III in 2022. It’s the perfect soundtrack for your daily dose of metal meditation – this time in album length. Sink in, relax, breathe!

This week Dave Griffiths sat down with hjort to find out a little more about the new album.
