"I have long been fascinated by the North - the Nordic countries, expanse of land and ocean, from residencies on the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea, to the vast Icelandic countryside. The title norður comes from the Icelandic word for ‘north’.
This programme represents many areas of interest from me, with field recording and themes of sea and winter, to music rooted in immersion and atmosphere." – Linda Buckley
