@eyesix: Thanks mate. Very pleased the EP is going down well!

there is a wondefully hazy dream like feel to this one, makes me think of a burnt out 70's polaroid picture of fields :-)

vocal is so lovely and the echoes work so well, great touch!

Following on from the mid 2015 ‘Critical Drift’ EP released through Sparkwood Records comes ‘Juxtapparition’. A full length release which explores much darker territories; mixing ambient post-rock with deep droning atmospherics and downtempo electronica. Weaving amid waves of fuzz tinged drones, fractured beats and hints of twisted melodies, the sound envisages a dark panorama in which the listener is left to bring their own interpretation.

All which have contributed with freshly squeezed material, set against a breath-taking backdrop of snow-capped peaks and bewildering wilderness.

Fire Watch With Me

"Sparkwood Records invite you to experience a cross-pollinated landscape of wild growing sounds, serene atmospheres and curious timbres seldom heard before now. Located at the dark neck of the woods, we will follow the hidden path...the path of the Blue Pine. 

Whether you camp by the ambient springs of MäSän Laakso, on a lofty cliff between the majestic peaks, or entwined among soil and stumps, you are about to embark upon an adventure that will be both memorable and rewarding.

For the seasoned traveller, we encourage you to stick to the marked trail, until the very end (or perhaps we should say "other side") of our guided tour, to be able to fully experience the magnificent nature of Sparkwood and its many secrets. 

Safe camping and don’t play with matches!" 

This is a very special piece for me, since it is the first step towards a new era of compositions where I fully utilize my love for drum and percussion playing. All sounds are played and recorded live with acoustic instruments, and in some cases modified using various pieces of hardware and software. Field recordings are from the tropical houses of Korkeasaari Zoo.

MäSän Laakso (MäSä Valley) is dedicated to my beautiful soulmate and Love of my life, and our connection from which all things wonderful and wild burst into life.

Headphones are recommended. Hope you enjoy!
