A village doesn’t build itself.
Although everyone seems to have an opinion on how it should.

The Working Day follows the steady rhythm of a growing settlement, where timber is carried, stone is laid and yesterday’s plans become today’s work. Lively folk melodies, plucked strings, wooden flutes and gentle percussion bring a sense of movement to the everyday business of building a village. Inspired by the world of Foundation, it’s a celebration of ordinary work, small achievements and the quiet satisfaction of watching something take shape, one working day at a time.

Every settlement starts somewhere.
Usually with a fire and a few hopeful plans.

The First Hearth captures the quiet beginnings of a medieval settlement, before the roads, markets and grand buildings arrive. Gentle folk melodies, warm acoustic instruments and an unhurried pace evoke the first homes taking shape, the surrounding countryside and the promise of a village yet to grow. Inspired by the world of Foundation, it’s music for building something from nothing, or simply enjoying the peace before the work begins.
