Musical greetings, Ilona CeltCastThe Daily Disc today is Vaev by Vaev (2020) The band members of this band from Denmark are well-known names in our scene: Poul Lendal and David Mondrup (Mallebrok). In four songs you will hear Mia Guldhammer (VIRELAI/Mallebrok) as well! This album was a nice surprise in our mailbox, I have to say! Because of the electronic sounds, part of the songs are classified as “charged”, you will find those in our Spotify CeltCast Radio – Charged list! The other tracks we started to play on CeltCast Radio itself. The songs are interpretations of traditional Danish folk tunes. If you love Trolska Polska, SKRÖMTA and Virelai songs AND you love a bit more power in acoustic music, then you definitely should listen to this party. The album contains a booklet with 14 funny pages. You will find lyrics and drawings in it. This album is very suitable for Balfolk dancing! My favourite song is: Lejerdrengen, Engelsholm. Thank you Go Danish Folk Music for sending in this absolute gem!

Hello music lovers! 🎼

Due to the Midwinter Fair Archeon (NL) it was a busy week! But, again ten albums went to our new server. Berit CeltCast has already started building new playlists, while I am still busy processing albums. 💿
All albums of this week are beautiful (of course)! 🥰
The albums of VIRELAI, Asynje, FAUN and The Moon and the Nightspirit have beautiful booklets in it! I do love it when work has been clearly put into making them a worthwhile read. 📜
Clannad Irish Band’s album is a special one, since it is from 1979 (!) and therefore from the early period of this band. Our Cliff de Booy Concert Photography posted a nice review on the 26th of June: ✒️
There are two albums that we can play very little of, but are worth mentioning:Barnyard Tea has made a beautiful Christmas album, mostly Bluegrass, but … still one song with a (CeltCast) folk sound! We’re happy we got a hold of it at Keltfest last May.🎄
And of course, the Mark Knopfler album (1987) from the “The Princes Bride”. Who hasn’t seen that iconic movie? Inconceivable that you haven’t! We’re going to play two songs of that beauty. 🎥
Finally, an earlier album of PerKelt from 2016 which was handed to us back in the summer of that year on the Castlefest grounds. PerKelt, whom by the way released a new album recently! 🎻
And lastly, an older album of Annwn (2007) that was recommended to us by Miroque – lebendige Geschichte at Fantasy Fest Rijswijk, when it was still called the Gothic and Fantasy Beurs. We’re very glad Lena tipped us this artist, because we will play 100% of it mixed into our playlists. 🎶

We’re very happy that these beautiful CD’s have been processed: 💕
FAUN – Totem (2007)
Barnyard Tea – Bluegrass Christmas (2014)
Annwn – Orbis Alia (2007)
PerKelt – Dancer in the Wind (2016)
VIRELAI – Frabolgerogbjerge (2011)
Virelai – I Danser Vel (2013)

Asynje – Genkaldt (2011)

That’s it for now, see you!

When you’re visiting
Castlefest
2019
and you love to dance then balfolk is an experience you shouldn’t miss out on!
Balfolk contains all kinds of dances, from a romantic Mazurka to an energetic Polka. Most dances are danced in couples but some of them are danced in groups, which is a lovely way to meet new people!
If you don’t know the steps yet, don’t worry: on Thursday, Friday and Saturday morning there are balfolk workshops with the music of Paracetamol who play bittersweet folk with a hint of jazz.
During Castlefest, there are several bands where you’ll be able to practise your newly learned balfolk skills.
Cesair plays mythological music which is perfect for some mellow dances. Both Asynje and VIRELAI perform music with Scandinavian roots which is guaranteed to get your feet moving!
Waldkauz can be both wild and dreamy, leading to a variety of dances. If it is an energetic polka or uplifting waltz you love to dance, then both Sunfire and Pyrolysis are worth a visit!
Other bands who are known to attract “balfolkies” are RASTABAN , Vael and Brisinga . Oh, and rumour has it that perhaps on Saturday after the Wicker there will be a jam session with balfolk music at the Meadow Stage.
In other words, Balfolkies, experienced and new, see you at Castlefest dancing to your heart’s desire!!!
