hertta lussu ässä
s/t
ind 089 lp

gnomic no-fi plunk, wheeze, rattle and moan courtesy of an unfortunately monikered (well...at least to english language readers anyway...it probably means something just lovely in finnish...) supergroup comprised of jonna karanka aka kuupuu, laura naukkarinen aka lau nau and merja kokkonen aka islaja that draws from the seemingly eternal well of stoned detuned mischief that feeds the viaducts of the finnish underground. the sheer density of acts positing variants on this same post-amon duul / siloah-like freakout stylee there gives rise to questions of bandwagon hopping, but that’s a discussion for another time. for the here and now, this first release of theirs is a choice manifestation of heavy-lidded third-mind acoustic weirdity that’s as ungainly as it is mystically / chemically blasted.

this is contemporary music. in the new age whose keynote is the destruction of old forms and the birth of new spirit our ears are still constantly insulted with the musical establishment's attempts to "hold on" to the old traditions whatever the cost. music is neat and clean and void of real life. we say fuck those people, we just want to blow. folk music is dead, it got too fond of itself. jazz is dead, it got too lost in itself. rock is screaming its brains out trying to make up for the loss. but there is a new sound known only to a few, a sound of death and conflict and reconciliation and fresh air. it fits no categories, it just is. and that is what we are presenting you with, a whole sound. not clever parts, no individual achievement, this is the sound of a group soul being born ..

kiila
heartcore
cd

the first full-length by the finnish duo kiila. this album has been in the making for two years and now it's finally out. packed in a beautiful 6-page digipack it contains nine tracks and total of 39 minutes of music.

kiila makes music with everything thats around, a massive array of instruments have been used here, clockwork, bowed saw, bowed guitars and bassguitars, drums, percussions, computers... you name it.

the album is full of heart and has received many warm words from all over the world.

"heartcore has preserved a lot of sustained work and spontaneous expression. we have spent time and energy on listening to music, talking and thinking about it. we have listened to these songs as to our favourite records: critically, carefully and with devotion, often and for long periods of time, in many situations and states of mind. the main difference between these processes - listening to our favorite records and listening to heartcore - has been that we have changed the sounds on heartcore whenever necessary. we have omitted sounds, played new ones or modified existing ones. we have thought about arrangements, searched for sounds and altered structures. the whole time, however, making music has been subordinate to listening to it."

- niko-matti ahti (from the linear notes)

last year saw an explosion & all too welcome interest in a vital, tightly knit scene of artists from finland. out of the communal circle of prodigious finnish musicians comes this lovely 10 song debut solo outing of abstract folk, stray kiss lullaby & plucked blues by laura naukkarinen

sung in her native tongue, kuutarha intimates a secret language outside traditional word speak into something utterly beautiful & unrestrained. melody is suggested through the contours of voice, guitar & violin and arrangement has less to do with the placement of things than with lau’s comfort in letting sounds fall where they may.
