Ston vounón ti skiá | In the Shadow of the Mountains – Greek Meets Slavic Witcher Fantasy

Details

Description

Στων βουνών τη σκιά (Ston vounón ti skiá – “In the Shadow of the Mountains”) — A bold musical experiment inspired by the Witcher 3 game soundtrack, blending Greek lyrics with the epic soundscapes of Slavic folk fantasy.

The cinematic pacing moves between thunderous battle surges and mystical interludes — layered female chants in an imagined fantasy tongue intertwine with haunting Greek verses. Propulsive, primal beats anchor the journey, creating a raw, immersive medieval atmosphere that bridges two worlds: Greek poetic tradition and Slavic mythic energy.

This is an experiment — a sonic meeting of cultures — exploring how Greek storytelling sounds within the pulse, power, and mystery of Slavic folk motifs.

Lyrics / Στίχοι

[Verse]
Στων βουνών τη σκιά (Ston vounón ti skiá – In the shadow of the mountains)
Κυνηγώ τα θηρία (Kynigó ta thiría – I hunt the beasts)
Με του Δία την οργή (Me tou Día tin orgí – With Zeus’ wrath)
Και της θάλασσας μυστικά (Kai tis thálassas mystiká – And the secrets of the sea)
Τραγουδώ πριν τη μάχη (Tragoudó prin ti máchi – I sing before the battle)

[Chorus]
Αέρας και φωτιά (Aéras kai fotiá – Air and fire)
Φεγγάρι στο σκοτάδι (Fengári sto skotádi – Moon in the darkness)
Στων βουνών τη σκιά (Ston vounón ti skiá – In the shadow of the mountains)
Κυνηγώ τα θηρία (Kynigó ta thiría – I hunt the beasts)
Με του Δία την οργή (Me tou Día tin orgí – With Zeus’ wrath)
Και της θάλασσας μυστικά (Kai tis thálassas mystiká – And the secrets of the sea)
Τραγουδώ πριν τη μάχη (Tragoudó prin ti máchi – I sing before the battle)

[Chorus]
Αέρας και φωτιά (Aéras kai fotiá – Air and fire)
Φεγγάρι στο σκοτάδι (Fengári sto skotádi – Moon in the darkness)
