Released a decade ago, Revelation was our first new album in 9 years and has achieved an astonishing 13 million streams on Spotify. Read about its background and creation as part of the Archiving process for ANÚNA40 in 2027. anuna.ie/revelation

SYSTIR got to sing a couple of tunes inside the lighthouse too. Reverb for days! This is Cúnnla by Michael McGlynn

@nowits1984 @Rainmaker1973 Do you mean they did this to the Russians? Spokanki are Russian.

@Rainmaker1973 I always wondered why the English called them creepy demonic sub humans and hunted them… I’m not saying that was right, but hear some noise like that coming from the hills or the glen at night and see some white faces…

Ever heard traditional Gaelic Irish music sung by an a cappella group like this? This is Ceann Dubh Dilis (My Sweet, Dark-Haired Love), arranged by Michael McGlynn and performed by Spokanki.

Today ANÚNA release a new single to streaming - a remaster of our recording of "Miserere Mei, Deus" - with that famous top C sung by Charlotte Richardson - available now to stream on all platforms. linktr.ee/anuna

if you are in Dublin this weekend don't miss the utterly unique @lunatraktors at @smockalley - cannot recommend them highly enough ❤️

The hardest album to discuss in many ways, and one of the most difficult times I have experienced. This is the 2012-2014 album Illuminations by ANÚNA . What began as an effort to celebrate 25 years of the group ended in a life-altering realisation. anuna.ie/illuminations

@rocknrollofall TBF, the bar is quite low. This is nice.

2006, now 20 years ago, ANÚNA released one of our most unusual and beautiful albums Sensation. The first album for six years, it contains some of our finest recorded moments anuna.ie/sensation

youtube.com/watch?v=L7JJxw… I came to realize that my mind conjures up this song randomly, possibly to calm me. Since...2019 :o I usually have no conscious intent of thinking of this song. Such a brilliant collab between @Anuna_Choir & @YasunoriMitsuda ❤️

@grok @yo_hoho_mofo @Rainmaker1973 Is this the original song that you persist in calling an arrangement? Or is this something else entirely?

Thanks for clarifying, Michael. Spokanki is indeed a Russian a cappella group, performing your arrangement in Irish Gaelic. The flag is from their fictional "SpokanLand" persona—a custom design with a moon face and dove, used in their theatrical shows. It fits their style, not specifically tied to Ireland. Apologies if my earlier take missed that context!

Behind the Closed Eye was an extraordinary album, with a complex background that brought together inspiration, poetry, Francis Ledwidge, Jeff Buckley, death itself against the background of some of the darkest moments of The Troubles. anuna.ie/behind-the-clo…

えええ、めっちゃ名盤だし、美しい光に満ちた作品だと思うけどなあ。

This is Cynara - probably the least well-known album ANÚNA and I have ever made. Revisiting this for ANÚNA40 in 2027 was hard I must have been in a very dark place when I made Cynara. Heavy stuff. anuna.ie/cynara

Banging rendition of my arrangement of the Irish traditional song "Sí do Mhaimeo Í" - all the way from Kobe in Japan. youtube.com/watch?v=Y0Ov1m…

Continuing analysis and background for the forthcoming ANUNA40 in 2027, this is the turn of 1996's Deep Dead Blue. if you don't know it, now is a moment to delve into one of the most unusual recordings of our long history. anuna.ie/deepdeadblue

Regarding the debate about artists and musicans using AI generative tools. When methods were found to make jewellery quicker and cheaper, goldsmiths stopped training. Now there are very few. There will be no journey for gifted creators. We will diminish. It is inevitable.l

14th century from the Dublin Troper. This is the Canadian duo The Woodgies capturing the essence of a 600 year old Irish chant.
