We call some of our music nu-medieval music. #MusicianSky #music #numedievalmusic

I don't ever really watch broadcast TV...but I was talked into watching Celebrity Traitors on the BBC iPlayer. I'm three episodes in and The soundtrack is phenomenal!

I was reminded of this track today. It's from 2022 when we were just starting to explore pre-medieval themes. I'd approach it quite differently if I was doing it now but it still has something. #drumandbass #neofolk #MusicianSky secretarchivesofthevatican.bandcamp.com/track/boudic...

For anyone planning to attend the No Kings events anywhere in the world on 18 October, here's a tune for you. Have a most excellent day! Be safe. youtu.be/vI1FkVNtDi4?... #nokings #resistanceisneverfutile

We have a new tune releasing on 16 October. It is called Dreamhelm Incursion.https://youtu.be/SRZ4SPxk954?si=grgiDShJ8CCYv91U #MusicianSky #genredefyingmusic

No Kings by Secret Archives of the Vatican is on all the usual streaming services now. We're super happy with it - it's nu-medieval music with an epic militant feel...it is music for our times. open.spotify.com/track/1QUpfV...

Taliesin's Skull, Hollow With Wind, is out now on all the usual streaming sites. If you like dark neofolk with a nu-medieval flavour, you will like this. #musiciansky open.spotify.com/track/3H2Khr...

It is World Netlabel Day. Here's our contribution. secretarchivesofthevatican.bandcamp.com/track/resist... #musiciansky #wolrdnetlabelday

Hi, people! I hope you're all having a good day. Here's an album track from a few weeks back. It is nu-medieval music. Our music is not for everyone. #MusicianSky #numedieval youtu.be/Mykn1Rx1lbM?...

Here's one I recorded today: youtu.be/vI1FkVNtDi4?... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTrack #numedievalmusic

Just uploaded this updated version of a 2023 track...this has a science fiction narration over the track. #musiciansky youtu.be/AxLQ-o7UWEM?...

Here's a tune I wrote a couple of days ago to pass the time. Some Dark Age nu-medievalism... #MusicianSky youtu.be/neJo9xpA8PM?...

Here's an English medieval tune written in about 1200 CE. We recorded this in 2022 but this is a remaster. The original video was based around two photos that we bought in. Here, we've animated them using Kling AI, so they're both real and AI simultaneously. #MusicianSky youtube.com/shorts/deE7v...

Here's a YouTube playlist of our new album, Vow Engine. We do not see the videos as separate from the music - they are the same piece of art. #youtube #musiciansky youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Where Ravens Refuse to Speak was released at the beginning of May and, in our not-so-humble opinion, did not get the attention it deserves. Oh well, that's the music world! Anyway - here's another chance to listen to it. youtu.be/e1ueSMKEENY?... #MusicianSky #music #darkfolk

Our new album, Vow Engine, is on Spotify. Go on, take a chance: open.spotify.com/album/4yP1hx... #MusicianSky

Here's new track, the Veiled Cartographer, that is on our new album, Vow Engine, which has started to release around the world (Friday wherever you are). www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lr_j... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks #numedievalmusic

Wolf and Fire is on Spotify: open.spotify.com/track/74l6ZW... #MusicianSky #Spotify #neofolk If you have a playlist of dark folk, Viking folk, ritual folk etc please add it. Thank you!

Just released on YouTube: Wolf and Fire by Secret Archives of the Vatican youtu.be/7EeHoBCWQ8M?... #MusicianSky #darkfolk #neofolk

We usually release our tunes a couple of days earlier on Bandcamp than on streaming services. This is Wolf and Fire. #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks #bandcamp secretarchivesofthevatican.bandcamp.com/track/wolf-a...

Here's the video for tomorrow's release, Nine Breaths To The Folded Path. It's Dark Age nu-medieval music with some subtle bass electronica in the mix. #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks #numedievalmusic #DarkAgeMusic youtu.be/7cnim2GbkUo?...

Just premiered the video for Where Ravens Refuse To Speak on YouTube. Go on, take three minutes to watch it. Thanks! youtu.be/e1ueSMKEENY?...

I was there!

Shame on me (probably...) but I gave in and did the action figure thing. Silly but fun. #MusicianSky

Just premiered on YouTube: a video for this week's SAotV release, She Who Was Promised Silence. Epic nu-medieval music with some Croydon electronica in the mix... youtu.be/6Lx-keKeiBE?... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks #numedievalmusic #electroeuroatavism

Here's a tune we recorded in 2008. This video is from 2021. The track was written by Louis Counter who is still a core member of Secret Archives of the Vatican. #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks youtu.be/cNd7RqMnGmM?...

In January 2024, I posted a 1 min track video to TikTok. It got 8 views so I posted it again the following day. A few more views. Forgot all about it. This week, TikTok tells me I'm getting about 1,000 views a day on it - over 31,000 views now. I have no explanation. www.tiktok.com/@secretarchi...

Here's a track from this week's album release (Obsidian Whisper) that wasn't released as a single. It's called The Eclipsed Covenant. It's nu-medieval music...modern music with medieval roots and subtle electronica. Definitely music for now... #MusicianSky youtu.be/CkBBJKvCMLs?...

Just premiered on YouTube...today's release, She Sings of Galaxies Not Yet Born. youtu.be/xiqzCSNQtVw?... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks #numedievalmusic

Just premiered the YouTube video for Thorn and Gold which was released today: youtu.be/TlcdKXpdBBg?... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks

Here's a new video for a tune from June last year. The track deserves a lot more attention than it got (in my not-so-humble opinion...) Maybe this will help. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0E7r... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks

Just premiered the video for Sanctuary of the Veiled Rose on YouTube. The track will be on streaming services from Tuesday but is already on Bandcamp. It will, of course, be ignored by the entire world. youtu.be/i45ymR-OO-g?... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks

When we released our most recent album, Unwritten, there were a couple of tracks that hadn't been released as singles. Here's one of them: www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6pQ... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks #numedievalmusic

One of our tunes, Paladin, has now passed 350,000 streams on Spotify. It's taken a long time but that's OK. It's in no way the best of our tunes but people seem to like it. #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks open.spotify.com/track/4ZFzZM...

On Friday, Meta suspended my Insta and Threads accounts. Very annoying as I was away from my PC for the weekend so couldn't really engage and also had a new release to promote (phone all loaded up with content). No reason given. I appealed and they restored the accounts on Monday. I was surprised.

I had a go at building a shaman drum. It's messy but I'm happy! #MusicianSky youtu.be/mXq2-jR7ecg?...

Friday 7 March is Bandcamp Friday. Please support independent music. Thank you. #bandcampfriday #bandcamp #independentmusic

Just uploaded a new video for one of our tunes from 2022. It deserved a video that complemented it better than what we could achieve in 2022. Very happy with this. #SkyOriginalMusicTracks #MusicianSky #MusicSky youtu.be/O0az-bC_4os?...

We released a remix of one of our 2024 tunes this week. Remixed by Novit Terminus. Here's a video. youtu.be/e17yXuhYIjg?... #MusicianSky #numedievalmusic

Today's release, Her Solace in Distant Stars, is now on YouTube: youtu.be/5qTp1vWbuD4?... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks #numedievalmusic

If you like to pre-save releases, our next album, Unwritten, will be out on 28 February: distrokid.com/hyperfollow/...

Her Solace in Distant Stars by Secret Archives of the Vatican is out now on your favourite streaming service and on Bandcamp. There's a good likelihood that our music isn't like anything you've heard before. Go on, take a chance. #MusicanSky #OriginalMusicTracks

Here's a tune from a few months back that was mostly ignored. We think it deserves a little more attention. youtu.be/0fDCxlp2A9E?... #MusicianSky #OriginalMusicTracks

Just released the video for today's release, Veins of Iron, Heart of Silk. Please take a few minutes to escape with us to another time and place. youtu.be/nRj5MbhlDzI?... #musiciansky #OroginalMusicTracks #numedieval

Here's the second video for our new release, Mourning Veils and Fragrant Myrrh. We're very happy with this one. youtu.be/WqKyv0-rgOg?... #numedieval #klingai #midjourney #numedoevalmusic #fantasymusic
