Kulning - a northern herdingcall in the forest

- Today in the forest I recorded some spontaneous "kulning", the ancient northern herdingcall. One of the things I love about kulning is the very special "in between" sounds. Not sad, not happy. Just something in between. Something very emotional that calls to our soul. Fragile, and very strong at the same time.
Sorry about the bad sound in the high pitch parts. It is hard to know how far away to stand from the camera because of the very high sound. I will be better with that :)
Hope you like it, and don't forget to subscribe on my channel :)

if I'm in the woods and I hear this, two things: I'm dying a beautiful death, or I have made it to middle earth!
If you walk in a scandinavian forest you will see the roots of yggdrasil, all about you. No kidding. Just open your eyes. And they are there.
A beautiful death indeed
Middle earth YES! I got lord of the rings vibes from this. It's eerie and beautiful. Otherworldly xx
i'd be creeped out
Or you were so high and the weed was excellent quality
could you please do more from farther away? so we could hear how it sounds from a distance
Ostebrix That's something I'd love to watch as well!
Ostebrix YASS
Yeeeeeeeeessssss
turn the volume down. you'll get the same effect.
Just go far away!
Your kulning recovers my soul. Thank you. (please record more)
It may sound weird as hell but I'm sure you don't belong to this century. You make me feel like I'm living in the ancient times :)
This a nordic call though.
Imagine you camping out there and suddenly you hear this, them those chills
Sound since for a visit but I know it would suck really quickly living back then lol
So true
IKR?!
THIS! This should be in TES:Skyrim quite random, somwehre in the snowy mountains and woods.
DeamonSorrow this is a good idea for a Skyrim mod
And random Cows and other animals appear XD
i just started playing skyrim i believe i just bought the first one that came out "skyrim; the elder scrolls"
i played a little so far "level 8" and the games amazing, for this one you are talking about they could add like a skill where you have to add your skillpoints or whatever and you can call cows and wolfs and other animals to your location the more points you have on the skill the farther the duration is and the more animals you will attract
this would be amazing oh my god
Robloxanimation Destination ''skyrim the elder scrolls the first One that came out'' LOL WTF, do you actually believe that it's the first game? IF so: use Google! Oblivion is also very good and worth playing:)
Your voice is magical and it fits perfectly with the nature ^^
Thank you so much ❤
Yeah, nothing more natural than digitally altering the sound to add echo.
not sure if trolling or unaware that sound echoes when outside away from cities I.E around mountains or hills.
It does, but that is clearly digitally altered in a studio.
@@booshank2327 is it though?
Prove it or it didnt happen.
I clicked "Like" because there is no "Love" to click.
click on my love
I have shivers down my body every time I listen to your kulning.
Aww...so happy to hear that you like it ❤
Your kulning is so spectacular! How far do the echoes go?
Cheetor96 I think if someone is loud enough kulning can be heard about 6 miles away
Sofia Maffei omg same
Sofia Maffei just imagine walking through those woods and hear it. you would just get lost in her voice.
Living in Hong Kong, you have to understand that this seems like another world to me. Thank you for your wonderful videos!
Barbie Liu hello fellow Hong konger! Really wish I could try kulning but I doubt my neighbors and surrounding buildings would appreciate the noise haha . Like you said this is magical compared to our city. Truly amazing
Hello fellow hker :)
Risulfur s
Cringy? Lol, you really don't know how to apreciate a true paradise
...Europa welcomes you.
Definitely. Hope you’re safe x
To all dimwits accusing her of using effects / reverb: This is how it sounds in real life. Her high pitched voice is carrying very loudly for several kilometers and bouncing off the mountains, creating the sound reflections you hear.
Except those reverberations wouldn't have such a nice long hall-sound. Snow isn't exactly something that reflects sound well, neither are trees. Don't call people dimwits if you don't know what you're talking about.
@@PelleKuipers I actually witnessed kulning once and trust me it sounds just like that if not even more beautiful and the echo is the same
I do believe that kulning can a reverb when someone is singing near a lake or somewhere else. Except I've searched for many other videos of people kulning and none have the same long reverb that Jinton has in this.
This in combination that you can't see a mic anywhere yet her voice sounds like a close miced voice makes me believe these videos are doctored. If she were to use a mic from further away this would result in her voice changing depending on where she's standing (towards or away from the mic).
it sounds like a hall revberb, that's true, and there are lot of damping elements that would cut off that reverb but, if mics are put quite away from the sound source, then you record more reverb than original sound. At the same time, wet weathers produce less damping since sounds travels longer distances onf wet enviroments. However, there is a bit of reberve added here, I guess, since early reflections are non audible in this enviromental scenary since the output source is very clouse to the input recording source, having a nice gain of the dry voice over the wet one.
it also comparable; I just watched other videos and the reverb is quite different. In some cases there is a nice reverb due the enviroment, like at high altittude with mountains, but at in this type of enviroment is impossible even a superimposition of frecuencias doubling the amplitude to say, oh yeah this reverb is natural. However, I enjoy the singing anyway and I personally don't care about using a bit of reverb (properly used), but not so much as in this video.
So, did the elves finally show up from the forest or...?
Alun Cantabile yes probably with the dwarves and trolls. With that voice, you can call up to freakin ANYTHING😍
@@godSPARDA1995 it made me cry
Emre Özyurt well if i were her i'd run trolls aren't exactly something you want to deal with
Lol
Well, I just showed up but...yeah. Haha.
Wow! :O
It sounds like a call to the soul come back to home...
Cláudio Silva I hit like because they don't have a love. Blessings to you my sister
Theres no soul
Cláudio Silva “Come my darling, homeward bound.”
My cat came to me as soon as I started playing this.
Mine to!😻
Mine, as well! I’m late to these videos, but all of my cats were sleeping when I started playing this, and all stood up to attention at the sound of her voice. Magical! 💕
Mine, as well. This is clearly an ancient form of cat calling...
Mine too
Yup mine too , amazing
The inner viking of me awakens. Greetings from Denmark! Its beautifully calming to listening to.
there is no viking inside you so chill dude
im sure there are vikings in you. spread them cheeks son
+القعقاع بن عمرو التميمي People of Tatooine is not allowed to say that.
rotfl
Danes actually originated from Vikings. Chill yourself.
When I listen to your voice with ancient Kulning, it triggers my amygdala. I could actually feel it. Most primitive part of my brain. And your Kulning gives me peace somehow.
Same here! It’s almost like getting transported, as cheesy as it sounds.
NonTimeboMala / amygdala?
@@lilhonni a part of the brain.
Why is everything related to swedish history like this always so beautiful?
You need to have this professionally recorded out in the wilderness and have it pressed to vinyl. Nothing fancy, no music, just this exactly how it is! Please!
I so agree! 😍
exactly
Wow, I love Sweden it’s so beautiful! Calming I can’t believe it.
i think i would die from existential happiness if i could lie of the snow in that beautiful wilderness you call home. I've always been a city born person but my heart is in the trees and snow, and your videos bring me that bit closer to my hearts home.
thank you Jonna
This is worth preserving,
this is everything
❤
I don’t know why I’m crying every time I’m listening kulning. I just cry with heavy teardrops falling down from my cheeks. Extremely fascinating sounds!
In the song «Into the Unknown» from Frozen II, AURORA’s vocals are inspired by kulning. So beautiful, Jonna ❤️😊🌿
My flat mate’s birds just went dead silent and came to the perch closest to me. Something about this call seems to be fascinating and riveting to animals (including humans, of course). Truly breathtaking. I could listen to this all day.
This is so beautiful. Please keep making more of these.
This is so primal, absolutely beautiful Jonna. I've often wondered what the people who hear your calls think, if anyone lives around there.....it must be wonderful for the local people to hear you carrying on this ancient tradition. If I lived there I would answer your call. Please never stop putting these wonderful videos on CZcams, they make my heart sing xxx
*patiently waiting for her albums to be available on Google Music*
This made me envision every wild creature in the forest stop still in their tracks, raise their head up, and their hearts pound in unison as they feel the love simultaneously emanating from Jonna’s call. I love this! 🥰
It is my in my bones! 💚💚💚
I have family in Norway I visit every summer. My little cousin has been practicing kulning since she was 5. Shes 14 now and it will bring a tear to your eye. The most beautiful sound you will hear. Listening to this makes me excited to go back and see how she has progressed!
So beautiful. You have an amazing soul Jonna
Aww thank you ❤
the first time I heard this my whole body felt these electrifying shivers that felt out of this world. the whole experience to me has been very powerful, very majestic, very beautiful. thank you for sharing your beautiful gift with us.
This is so serene yet so powerful at the same time. I get MAJOR chills listening to these.
And that's the most beautiful thing I've heard in, like, forever. Thank you for that.
If I were walking through the middle of a Forest and heard this, I would defiantly walk toward the enchanting sound. Insert heart eyes emoji.
For a person who is hyperactive and has anxiety, this is strangely a very calming thing to listen to. I hope you do more of these!
There is something magical and relaxing in your kulning. I love your kulning videos.
Thank you for this video...it brought back a wonderful memory. I grew up with lots of woods to ramble and play in...my grandmother would call us kids with a similar call when it was time to get back to the house.
This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. I've found myself humming this randomly during the day. Grounding and relaxing!
The way her voice rings like that with such strength and beauty is so haunting and almost incomprehensible. I cannot even fathom the vocal technique and how it is projected like that across such far distances.
I send thank you since France, for this magic moment ! Continuous it is wonderful...💓💓
Thank you so much :) ❤
I could literally see all kinds of animals coming through the trees to bow to your magical voice. Shows that people can bring the glorious beauty of mother nature to a new level. That kind of beauty that gives you shivers down your spine.
I feel like I'm in a fairytale
I know... *Its like shes a princess*
When i hear you call i feel like im going to cry and an inner joy wants to come out. I feel like i need to go home to the earth. I dont know sorry if this sounds weird it spark's something amazing inside that im to scard to let out and enjoy. Thank you for sharing your beautiful voice with us 💜
Where you live is beautiful!
MariaChristina seni alan ölmez
That voice is not in just my heart but also in my heartbeat.
I have no idea how I stumbled on your videos or how I even found them. But wow, I love them so much. There's something about your singing that I can't put a finger on - CHILLS!! LOL
I love how it sounds, so magical, empowering my soul to some extent yet calming.
This is absolutely so beautiful, I'm glad I found your channel. I just can't get enough of your kulning videos
I have just become aware of kulning today, and now itis one of my favorite things. Why am I just hearing of this now? This is so beautiful.
I absolutely love your kulning. It heals the spirit, indeed.
I am sure the trees and all of nature appreciates your singing. The thaught of what you give the forrest makes me happy.
your kuling makes me feel peaceful and takes away my aniexty a lot, thanks for the channel, plus I can sleep better too. take care.
I love how the slight echo keeps the melody going and your voice comes in again at just the right moment
this is what I'm here for! 🙏
This always makes me think about all the people who might be somewhere in the woods, hearing this from afar, having a magical moment.
I wish this was the widely adopted version of a human mating ritual, similar to birds singing and dancing to attract a mate. This would be so much more special than twerking and grinding to dubstep.
Floppy Poppy
That would make her vulnerable from men coming in different directions...
Well that's a wierd fetish
No, because it would attract rapists and abusers just as much. What a repulsive comment. I agree that twerking is repulsive, but Christ.
You make me happy and recovery. Thanks a lot Jonna💙💜💙💜
if I could sing, I'd be doing this all the time!
I also had a lot of shivers on my body.....what an amazing, lightful singing and calling - in connection with the big space of a forest and a mountain...thank u so much Jonna!
Absolutely beautiful! Brings the soul back to life.
Thank you!!! This thing you do is magic!!! Please do more.
Your song something unusual... I m from India...... I can't understand.. But amazing
Earth truly has angels that walk amongst us. Your voice makes my soul smile 😬🙏😇♥️
She should join Wardruna. Her and Lindy would be amazing:)
I've been listening to these videos for a few hours while studying and have only just noticed she doesn't run any ads, my goodness bless this woman. Uninterrupted study
your voice is actually the most amazing thing
I'm not lying when I say that after listening to this my migraine... started to go away. I love her voice ✨🙏🏻💖
Holly shit you're not human :o
I love your voice !
Thank you so much! ❤
(I am a human, i promise :D )
english please.
Nah dude, they can speak what ever language they please.
English? Why? The most spoken language in the world is chinese, then spanish. And then....English. So please: Fuck off.
@@jonnajinton I would buy this if you did it!!!! I could listen to you all day long
Dearest Jonna, i listen to this and it does something to me that I can only imagine is because of my roots in Sweden and Norway, im only 50% Scandinavian 100% European but know the stories of my family, some still there who were farmers, the names were Vold and Moeskau. Hearing you do this is wonderful and makes me even more proud. It stirs my inner self, ive always wanted to go back to the beginning, maybe someday i will. I've enjoyed watching your content, i believe you are truly a woman of the earth, a wonderful being and as angelic as i have always wished for, hopefully you're not the only one left! Best wishes from across the lands and sea from a relative you might say proudly here in the states but longing to see the lands there. Skål !
Me: **tries to sing this**
My neighbors: 911, help
This is so peaceful. I have always been attracted to ancient times and music and it's culture. It's so good to see you're still in touch with yout ancient roots. Your voice is so peaceful. I am glad CZcams brought me here. Your voice gives me peace. 😇💙
My cat came to me while I was playing this 😁
Music for animals
I would love to wake up to that every morning. What a beautiful voice. Much better than a alarm clock
I wonder how kulning sounds when performed by males, considering it's so high pitched. Is it something males do too or is it a more common practice between women?
I believe it's much more common for women to do it, but there are men who do it. Try searching for "calle kular" here on youtube :)
It's more common for women, since back in those times, women were the ones mostly busy with herding.
Thanks for the info guys. :)
Theres Jojk, thats performed by the Sami. Im sure males can perform the Kulning, but perhaps not as beautifull :)
Silkdawn I'm a Sámi and I use the kulning when we bring in the reindeer. I joik when something happens that means something to me
Came here by accident and from the first sound the serenity hit. All became calm. Thank you...
I love Your magic voice! I think it´s time that you singing for us... :-* Hugs and kisses, Chris from Germany :-*
No words to describe how incredible your sound is. It really sounds like the forest is playing notes back to you. The sound bounces off the trees and back to you. So Beautiful 💕 I feel this heals the soul.
i am a practicing pagan and love this call. i feel that it invokes the spirit
Well it doesn’t invoke spirits and your religion is fake. At least we can agree on that.
Why are we here insulting this person's religion? What gave you the need to do that? There's nothing wrong with paganism. Let people practice what they want to practice
Oh!..... I'm crying with a smile on my face!... Your call resonates with my longingness...
You have an amazing voice!
Didn't expect it but started crying listening to this. That sound went straight to my heart for some reason.
Predivno.
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard
❤ Beautiful❤
Thank you ❤
I have no words for how your voice just gripped my entire inner being. There has never been a sound to hear, that could envelop, soothe, nurture, and completely melt a being, like you have just done for me. Just, wow. I wish I could say more, but, wow. THANK you for sharing this unearthly gift. Thanks to the universe for leading me to this video.
wonderful😍😍
Thank you! ❤
One of the most spiritually haunting sounds I have ever heard.
You have the voice of an Angel.
Stirs the soul, as if longing for a past life.
I feel like this is what a goddess would sound like.
I am glad people like you exist, I have been feeling overwhelmed with work ... And honesty your singing voice is what keeps me going... Thank you for sharing your voice and home
I have one cat that gets concerned and looks around when he hears this.
I have just watched so many of your kulning videos and I am in tears. You have such a beautifully haunting voice, and I just cannot put into words how magnificent it is.
I'm not a man of any faith but of angels existed this is how they would sound
Embracing our culture and heritage, it's a beautiful thing. Thank you.
Aah, I missed the Kulning videos :)
You are such a special creature. Thank you from my heart from sharing such extremely interesting and forgotten stories. You bound people to another reality.
This must have some digital echo tweaks or something? Sounds out of this world if not
Kalle Anka I believe the echoing is natural due to being in the forest c:
Kalle Anka its natural acoust
Fallen angel Yeah not sure, I doubt it but it doesn´t really matter, nice clip.
You ever yelled real loud in the forest in winter? I find the echo completely believable.
that's just a shit mic, you can hear the sound clipping on the higher notes and volume
It took me 3 years to hear this divinity 😭💗 I have never seen something like this . Truly I feel like I belong to some magical land with beautiful mist when I hear this . Thank you for this so much 💜 Love and respect for KULNING from India
Are there many people close to where you live or are you out in the middle of nowhere?
In the village where I live we are 9 people.
But I often go out in the forest away from the village, so at the place where I recorded this today was in the middle of nowhere, and hopefully no human listening :D
***** It looks fantastically peaceful, it must be so nice to live away from the madness of civilization, thanks again for sharing
If someone heard that, he'd just be awestruck, like we are all here, but even more, since he'd hear it live :)
Jonna Jinton whenever I practice my kulning I go as far away from any houses as possible.
Whyyy?? This is so delightful!
Every time I play this my cat comes to investigate. She's not sure where the sound comes from but she searches my whole house and then stands the closest to my phone and tilts her head all different ways. It's the only time she'll actually come inside! Beautiful enchanting voice!
