"Eg veit i himmerik ei borg" is a traditional Norwegian hymn, reimagined by SATOSHI | ECLESIAH as a ritualistic and immersive soundscape. Its ancient melody returns like a prayer, gradually surrounded by polyphonic voices, cello and vocal drones, organ, crunch-guitar arpeggios, bass, and sparse ceremonial drums. After the second verse is sung with only voice and drones, distorted tremolo guitars, bass, and drums erupt into the final section, transforming the stillness into a vast wall of sacred sound. The piece moves between Nordic folk hymn, medieval polyphony, minimalism, post-rock, and blackgaze.

Artist Profile

  • SATOSHI

    SATOSHI is a Japanese composer and producer whose music draws on classical harmony, sacred and liturgical traditions, folk music from around the world, and Japanese melodic sensibilities. Moving across post-rock, blackgaze, dark ambient, trip-hop, and abstract hip-hop, he combines layered vocals, massive drones, tremolo-driven guitars, breakbeats, and profound silence to explore prayer, loss, hope, and the boundary between civilization and nature. The contemporary reimagining of traditional hymns and folk melodies is central to his work, transforming them through his own artistic vision while bringing the beauty of the originals to new audiences. His YouTube channel has surpassed 88,000 subscribers, and he collaborates with vocalists and artists from around the world. His music has also been featured at an official football event held at a national stadium outside Japan. ECLESIAH is the project through which SATOSHI embodies "Sacredgaze," a musical world of his own conception where prayer, silence, darkness, and overwhelming sound converge, reconnecting the sacred with contemporary musical expression.
