Paavoharju Laulu laakson kukista

Paavoharju Laulu Laakson kukista CD starts with a drone that leads into the awakening of the spring. We dance, row on an Italian boat and finally hear the blow horn calling us home to the world of Paavoharju.

Sounds of raindrops falling on sheet metal roof melted together with old television’s random-dot-pattern-noise. Leena Uotila’s soft voice echoed in empty, dusty rooms. Catowls gathered to the sky, appletrees were blooming and waves rocked a barrell against the pier. Suddenly all this started to form esoteric mildew to cassette’s magnetic tape. I finished our work with prayer only a moment before the cold winds rose from Saimaa. Laulu laakson kukista (A song about flowers of the valley) is dedicated to Marja Ainala.
