MUMITROLL’s Magic Forest

A forest that transforms — from cautious mystery to radiant dance, then back into shadow.
Composed before the war. Preserved in silence. Reborn in the REBIRTH era.

This is a hybrid orchestral journey, where:

  • Apocalyptic cellos carve through the undergrowth
  • Sunlit clarinet and oboe drift like golden mist between branches
  • Modern drums and evolving rhythms pulse from tense pop-rock to a luminous waltz
  • And the forest itself breathes — shifting from fear to joy, then folding back into enigmatic stillness
    But the story begins much earlier.
    The first sketch of this piece was born when I was 25, working at Privat TV Dnipro.
    A whimsical animated series about these strange, gentle creatures was in development — but never made it to screen.
    The music, however, stayed with me.
    I carried the arrangement in memory for years, until in 2020, it finally emerged — no longer just a thought, but a living sound.
    A sound that still holds the forest’s hush, its shifting light, its cautious wonder.

“This is not just a track. It’s a memory that refused to fade.
A forest that never stopped waiting to be heard.”
