Focused on the traditional Portuguese imagery and inspired by the ancestry of primitive Iberian culture, “Ventos da Terra Fria” reignites the soundscapes that illustrate the territory, from its first human vestiges to the near extinct rural world of present times, where shamanism, paganism and the duality between the sacred and the profane have become little more than a time-worn vision. Drawing from a palette of multiple traditional instruments, and borrowing from select field recordings, URZE DE LUME have built a unique cinematic piece that transforms Folk and World Music into living memory and lore. It recreates vistas of mist crawling down mountain slopes as thunderstorms crackle across the horizon, but also scenes of harvest, grazing and celebration, revisiting times and places where man slowly carved his imprint as he himself became part of his surroundings.
