Ploughing aural fields in remote North.

Field recordist, bird watcher and a digitized former darkroom rat living in little Makholma village on the West Coast of Finland by the Baltic Sea - 61N 21E

These recordings are done in AB stereo with omnidirectional microphones. With this technique everything in the field will be equally meaningful, even the silence behind the microphones. That's why you should use headphones!

My recordings are merely like a process than individual tracks, and should be considered in the context of my blog-alike site:  www.baltic.fi

For better quality, the tracks are downloadable as 24 bit flac. For commercial use, please take contact.

You will find my videowork here: https://vimeo.com/holotna/videos 

And pics from the places of recordings: https://holotna.pic.fi/kuvat/


Tekijä on Makholman kalarannan liepeillä majaansa pitävä digitalisoitunut pimiörotta. Intohimona linnut, meri ja vanhat puupurret.

Today, Humisevat Kunnaat (Humming Hillocks) directs all its energy to ITE art. This manifests itself in unique compositions and combining different components into musical experiences.
ITE comes from the Finnish ‘Itse Tehty Elämä’, i.e. self-made life. ITE art is an integral part of its maker’s life. ITE art is part of the international outsider art scene. In general, ITE art is usually understood as a form of visual art, but music is also made. The difference to actual folk music is subtle, but when making music, ITE artists start from personal experiences and their own culture.
In Humisevat Kunnaat, the main artist has no musical training whatsoever, so the compositions and musical pieces are made by ear without sheet music. If the voices and tunes sound good, that's good. In most cases, music is made solely on the computer; but this is not a strict delimitation.
