This is complete footage of two night time lapse recordings outside a sulfurous cave in Hessdalen, Norway, from 31 Aug – 2 Sept 2025, highlighted in

Hessdalen Valley Of Light

We recorded many lights flickering around the cave.

Many are highlighted in the full documentary:

Hessdalen Valley Of Light

The original footage is silent, and you can watch it silent by muting the sound.

We thought to take the chance to share a bunch of the music from HESSDALEN VALLEY OF LIGHT.

Composed and performed by

James Matthew Thomas
and
The Mermen

This is a fascinating detailed look at how these amazing musicians practice their craft.

You will hear variations on the Hessdalen Theme music. You will hear rough ideas getting polished as Jim and Jennifer and Martyn try different variations on the way to producing the final polished music.
