We are Itinera, a dark folk duo from Hungary, inspired by our Hungarian heritage (folk songs and Shamanism) and the mood of Nordic Pagan folk, mixing these with electronic soundscapes.
The result of this mix is a dark fantasy world with a cross-cultural message about the importance of humanity's cultural heritage, connecting to the transcendental, and facing our inner darkness so we can emerge from it as better people.

In Hungarian folklore, the "táltos paripa" is a fire-eating horse, but it actually has roots in old times when we had Shamanism, a metaphor for the drum being held over fire and taking the shaman on journeys through the constant beating. This song is inspired by the shaman's words to their drum as they encourage it to provide them a safe journey.
