Wardruna - Raido (Official music video)

Music video for ‘Raido’. Directed by Tuukka Koski, Koski Syväri. Raido is the reconstructed name of the proto‑Norse R‑rune and is presumed to signify “riding” or “journey.” The concept of both song and video draws inspiration from old runic poetry where one can read how the horse is said to bring “comfort to the restless” and how the journey is swift for the sitting and toilsome for the horse. It has truly been a blessing and honor to work on this with top‑level people such as Tuukka Koski and his team, a fantastic horse such as Balder, all in a stunningly beautiful place full of helpful people (and absurd amounts of moose I might add). I can only hope that the positive synergy‑effect I believe all of the involved felt in making the film comes through in the final result. I for one am very proud of it.
