MAKE SHADOWS TOGETHER - SUMU (album, 2021)
Release date: April 7th, 2021
Formats: CD + TAPE + DIGITAL

Make Shadows Together is proud to present the debut album 'Sumu' that introduces their sonic visions and soundscapes that are based on floating and experimental violin and viola melodies created by Jussi Suonikko and solid synthesizer, organ and piano ground, layers and melodies created by Juha Mäki-Patola.

Make Shadows Together creates cinematic and minimalistic ambient music with a sombre twist, and meditative soundscapes that are floating calmly but also soaring.

Jussi and Juha started to make music together over a decade ago. Since then both have worked in several roles in Finnish music community as musicians, recording, mixing and mastering engineers, composers and sound designers.

Make Shadows Together took their name from a poem that legendary songwriter Mark Olson wrote when he heard the song "Leonids".

'Sumu' got its first steps in 2018 when Jussi sent an abstract violin melody to Juha and he created solid ground for this piece. The piece is "Deprivation" which gave inspiration to fellows to create more music. Slowly but with steady steps 'Sumu' started to see the daylight and at the end of memorable year 2020 all songs were in shape, and Make Shadows Together was ready to release their debut album 'Sumu'.
