Started in Sept 2013, Jykkälä is the brainchild of John Sorensen-Jones who tends to be slightly more well known under his other guise of Cat Sized Panda.
Jykkälä is a mix of electronic sounds spliced with organic instruments, which has been described by some as Sigur Ros meets Boards of Canada.
Praised by Alan Raw of BBC Radio Humberside, Tom Robinson of BBC 6Music and both the MusicVsTheWorld and EclecticPop music blogs. Jykkälä currently has released three EPs to date, ‘Disappearers’, ‘SangeForElskere’ and 'Einnmedmér' which are all available via Bandcamp.
