I'm asking about the genre and musicians of all origin are of course welcome!

I just now discovered Forndom through their album Dauðra Dura. Link in the title/post above.

One of my favorites is the soundtrack of Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.

Wardruna and Heilung, while amazing performance wise and musically, is a bit too dark and demonic for me. I do like Skáld's Huldufólk though.

Would I risk evisceration to say I just recently discovered Aurora’s music?

She’s a Norwegian singer, so she should qualify as Nordic. Not sure folk is the right label though. I’ve heard her music described as faerie pop, though it’s officially just pop. But it’s more than that. Like Björk, Sia, and maybe others, she has the weirdness factor as well.

You risk nothing! All recommendations are welcome! Personally, I don't like Aurora, Björk and Sia because they are too much pop for my taste. But I do like me some popPY 🤘
