about

This recorded version by Alan Chamberlain was written as part of the CODI Electronic Composer award he received. It is inspired by the hillfort Pen Dinas (Penparcau, nr Aberystwyth). The piece brings together interviews (Welsh & English) and field recordings from the hillfort site. The lyrics are written in Welsh to accompany the composition which were inspired by the archaeological understandings of the site.

This version was also played at "Living with the Internet of Things" (Tate Modern, London) and Bangor Music Festival 2021.

lyrics

Daeth y geiriau yn y gwynt, mewn breuddwyd, siaradodd y lleuad â fi
Hedwch tua’r gogledd i'r tywyllwch, byddwch gyda'r cewri a chladdwch y meirw
Gwrandewch ar y môr, llosgwch y graig a byddwch gyda'ch pobl, teimlwch yr awyr
