Weatherfoot Notes from Marginfolk by Folcrove

The path of 'Weatherfoot Notes' traces a crucial shift within the Bookmire's long-held beliefs, where knowledge isn't just bound in vellum but written by the rain. Here, Rae navigates a world redefined by Scribehands, seeing rivers as footnotes and storm clouds as margins. Dulcimer arpeggios spiral like rising mists from a river, met by the deep, shifting currents of the fretless bass, painting a landscape of wet earth and open skies. The track's rhythmic core, built on bones and handstomps, subtly spells out 'Nullquill' in a tapped Morse code, a bold reinterpretation of a potent artifact. This unexpected device underpins a profound transformation. As the music crests with a mid-song key change, leading into that powerful communal chant—'Let the air keep the words, let the flame set them free'—a shared sense of relief floods the listener. It’s a palpable release, an anthem for the courage of letting stories breathe, rather than clutching them tight. This piece pushes past past influences where ownership was everything, forging a collective promise born from a quiet ache for freedom, acknowledging ancient rivalries but reframing guardianship as stewardship.

We're the keepers of forgotten tales, weaving dulcimer with fretless bass while whispering secrets of the Bookmire's hidden shelves. Join our ink-stained rebellion against silence – every chord a stolen story, every chorus a battle cry.
