@karenbentley.bsky.social performs the hardangerfele during our first remote session on “The Lord Of The Rings: The War Of The Rohirrim” . Karen recorded in Mexico while Mark and I were online from London. The Hardangerfele is a crucial sonic signature in the Rohirrim musical universe.

Any day that you get to record this motif is a good day indeed. Recording with Storma Filmworks for “The Lord Of The Rings: The War Of The Rohirrim” back in 2024 at Stella Maris, Wellington.

Aleatoric good times with the superb Brass players that we were privileged to have as part of “The Lord Of The Rings: The War Of The Rohirrim” score. Recorded here by the GRAMMY winning @pin3hot.com at Angel Studios in London. From the cue “The Beast Is Rabid”

The amazing brass players we were privileged to have as part of the score for “The Lord Of The Rings: The War Of The Rohirrim” performing a section from “Helm Hammerhand Still Stands” (one of my fav cues from the film) at Angel Studios in London as recorded by @pin3hot.com
