Resurrect the Egyptian Book of the Dead - Art Music Film

The music group NEMUER, in collaboration with Egyptologists and artist Klara Sedlo, is working on an Ancient Egyptian album and film. Become a part of this unique project and help us bring the Book of the Dead back to life!

Author: NEMUER & Klara Sedlo

Sun God Ra's Solar Barque - second part of the film released!

Oct 6, 2024

We've just released a new animated music video for the track Sun God Ra’s Solar Barque from our ancient Egyptian album Going Forth by Day! It's a preview for our upcoming art-music film about the Book of the Dead and the result of our collaboration with artist Klára Sedlo and Egyptologists.

Let Klara's animated oil paintings and the ancient Egyptian harp melodies immerse you in the atmosphere of the Sun God Ra's journey through the underworld.

Like the rest of the album, the lyrics are in ancient Egyptian with reconstructed pronunciation, thanks to the collaboration of Egyptologist Dr. de Vartavan. The music video includes English captions to give you a clearer understanding of the spells from the Book of the Dead.

It picks up where Gates of Duat, the first part of the film, left off.

And if you'd like to experience our music and rituals live, check out our touring schedule.
