Lau Nau HEM. Någonstans – Original Soundtrack

The electroacoustical orchestrations of the album pilot the listener through an archipelago of cloud constellations to rest and dream on massive pillows of sound. It’s also clear that Pekko Käppi, the emperor of jouhikko, a Finnish traditional string instrument, has left his mark on the album by playing all the string arrangements.

Except one song, Lau Nau Hem. Någonstans CD is an instrumental album and rare of its kind: it’s a soundtrack album to a similarily named documentary film by Lotta Petronella (”Home. Somewhere”, Fisher King Productions 2015) which also spawned another collaboration on the film Själö. Think of an action film that takes place in a far away archipelago, but where most of the action happens inside the minds of the characters. In addition to the tree main characters of the film, Lau Nau’s music arises as the fourth character of the film. It’s born with a soul.
