Throw Your Own 'Rave Of Thrones' Party With Hodor's New Mixes

Well, Kristian Nairn, but you know what we mean

More Kristian Nairn (Hodor) Kristian Nairn (Hodor)

If you're not going to be able to get along to one of the capital-city stops on Irish actor/DJ Kristian Nairn's forthcoming Rave Of Thrones tour, do not despair — the stalwart carrier of Stark children everywhere has just released not one but two new mixes via SoundCloud.

Titled Summer Night Mix I and II, Nairn uploaded the tracks yesterday to relatively little fanfare, letting his Twitter followers know that there were fresh tunes waiting for them at their leisure:

 

They're decent mixes, too, as Nairn continues to show that his musical depth far outweighs his linguistic range on Thrones. That shouldn't be difficult given his character Hodor's one-word vocabulary, but the sentiment remains sincere — he's a legitimately talented decksmith.

Check out the mixes below — a traditionally brief run of between 40 and 50 minutes apiece — and get ready to queue this business up at your next house party, family wedding, or jousting tournament.

Of course, it recently came to light that Nairn is not the only Thrones cast member to have a knack for all things melodic — it turns out that co-star Jacob Anderson, who plays Unsullied badass Grey Worm on the show and goes by the stage name Raleigh Ritchie, is a perfectly capable muso in his own right.

The Rave Of Thrones tour kicks off at Sydney's Hi-Fi on August 28, and wraps just over a week later in Adelaide, at Zhivago, on September 7.
