From Source To Sea

The album is all about the journey of water from the source until it joins the ocean. The inspiration originated from a visit of the lakes and waterfalls at Plitvice-Nationalpark in Croatia. Gandalf builds the music upon hypnotic minimalistic, sometimes Far-Eastern-sounding basic structures, spanning wide symphonic melodies over the top that eventually develop into large orchestral crescendos. Powerful electric guitar- and synthesizer solos remind that Gandalf's roots are definitely based in Rock´n Roll.
