Album bonus versions contain an extra track, 'Gangandi', alongside a Blu-Ray copy of 2021's stunning Otherworldly Big Band Experience streamed event - the band's boldest project to date, featuring fellow Norwegian prog band Shaman Elephant.\u003cbr\u003eThe kaleidoscopic stage show features a stellar setlist, covering ENSLAVED's career, both past and present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Heimdal\" was produced by ENSLAVED's own Ivar Bjørnson, Iver Sandøy and Grutle Kjellson. Mixing was handled by Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios, and the final treatment was mastered by Tony Lindgren. The concept and lyrics for \"Heimdal\" was, as always, developed by Ivar Bjørnson and Grutle Kjellson in tandem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album was recorded primarily at Solslottet Studios in Bergen, which is owned by Iver Sandøy. Solslottet is a satellite of the well-known Duper Studios, where the drums were recorded and engineered by Iver himself, with assistance from Vegard Lemme.\u003cbr\u003eThe main guitars, bass, pianos, organs, and vocals were also recorded at Solslottet. Arve 'Ice Dale' Isdal recorded his guitar leads at his own Earshot \u0026amp; Conclave Studios.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe final touches and a few experimental ideas were added at the Overlook Hotel using Solslottet’s mobile studio rig.\u003cbr\u003eAll music for Heimdal was written and demoed at Ivar Bjørnson’s own Crow’s Nest Studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide A: 1.
