its a pretty ull on experience but made for a very interesting journey- thanks.

When I was sleeping, I heard this music. This will launch itself. I had a very bad dream about living dolls locked in the house, and in my sleep I heard this very scary music. On the dolls could not watch. Terrified I woke up and I was still scared. Barely a gathered his strength, I decided to turn off the music in total darkness. I thought that I was being followed those toys from sleep.   And he reminds the plague.  Thank you.

This time I turned on the composition itself. I decided to listen to your advice, and meet their fears face to face. I turned off the light, loud play music, I lay down and closed her eyes.  At first, I felt as if my leg someone holds, I continued nablyudat.Togda from my feet my whole body seemed to start to die and turn into something dry, dead and resembling chicken naked body. The images were disgusting. It seemed to me that behind me someone is, but I continued to watch, and that someone was leaning on me closer and closer, it was very unpleasant, but at some point my anxiety disappeared.  Then, as if I was in some kind of a shower room, water flowed from the top, pretty clean, but the floor was a nasty kind of black slurry, reminiscent of blood clots, which washed away the rain soon.  Then it seemed to me that I was locked in a dark house with no windows.  Now I feel a great relief to me so easily and well, thank you for your music and tips!

reminds of the the time when u have been in my radioshow - i still cant help loving it - ;)

Sounds like the most haunting dentist-visit ever. :) Haha, joking, but i like this.

DJ Shadow - The Mountain Will Fall

Terekke - Guest mix

In honor of selling out the limited edition Nielu digipack CD, I wanted to share with you a stream of Nielu as it was composed - as one whole, a continuous journey through these ever morphing audioscapes. You can still download digital Nielu at http://utulautturi.bandcamp.com/.

Nielu is best experienced with headphones in an initrospective setting.

I also want to express my deepest gratitude to all who have supported me along the way. More wonderful things took place with and through Nielu I could have ever imagined possible, and I am grateful beyond words. It truly baffles and humbles me that so many have reacted in such a positive way to my strange audio journeys. That Nielu would be chosen by A Closer Listen as one of top 10 experimental albums of 2015 (http://bit.ly/2c909yj), or that it was featured on Fluid Radio's adventurous Scandinavian releases list (http://bit.ly/1Q84iRh), I would have never EVER imagined such an honor. 

Here are snippets of some reviews Nielu got:

"Many albums claim to be experimental, or distinct, or impossible to classify.  Lautturi is humble enough not to make such claims, but he’s the real deal.  He clearly follows his own disturbed muse, and seems beholden to no one. "
https://acloserlisten.com/2015/01/26/utu-lautturi-nielu

"Nielu is an album that took my attention and held it in a way that few other dark ambient albums have achieved. I think the mix of real instruments and vocals with the more atmospheric nature recordings and electronic sounds just creates such a textured arrangement of audio that it feels like you are hearing something that you might not be allowed to, something not meant for mortal ears that has slipped through from somewhere else. That might sound grandiose but it’s how I feel."
http://www.casey-douglass.com/2015_02_01_archive.html

"Maybe Utu Lautturi is a musical genius because what he created is mindblowing.  By exploring the boundaries of music and blatantly crossing them he turns simple-hearted dark ambient into an elaborate piece of highly effective experimental music."
http://www.merchantsofair.com/reviews/utu-lautturi-nielu

"Utu plays almost everything himself including many acoustic instruments such as piano, guitar, organs, yet he arrives at powerful and eerie-sounding drones, perhaps through use of processing treatments, but mostly I assume through his introverted, meditative stance which allows him to refract the world through the mentality of a religious hermit, such as John of Patmos, contemplating God’s plenty with the all-seeing piercing gaze of a hawk. There may be even be a semi-religious aspect to his preparation method, if the phrase “several years of ritual work” means anything…one has visions of cultish rites enacted under occluded moons at dead of night, perhaps involving wearing the pelts of certain animals…aarroooh!"
http://www.thesoundprojector.com/2015/10/17/pecking-order

"Nielu is challenging, by design. It requires patience and an open mind. Lautturi’s work has the ability to just about drive me away before making me need to hear a little more. I would recommend Nielu to listeners with very experimental tastes, or for those who need something extremely visceral. You can look quite deeply into this work. "
https://hypnagogue.net/2015/06/09/utu-lautturi-nielu

In the end, the only thing that is left for me is to bow again and again, salute you all, and hope each and every one of us has the chance to enjoy the ever-blooming landscapes of our collective musical world for as long, and with as good health, as possible.

Strength and clarity to all.

Pre-order 'Eulogy For Evolution 2017' on LP/CD/DL here: http://phonofile.link/eulogy-for-evolution

Icelandic composer Ólafur Arnalds reissues and revives his debut album in form of a special remastered 10th Anniversary edition titled Eulogy For Evolution 2017 — available worldwide via Erased Tapes on August 25th. 

Following its initial release in 2007 and coinciding with Ólafur’s 30th birthday, label founder Robert Raths gifted the chance for this record to shine a second time. 

'Eulogy For Evolution' is a journey from birth to death, transporting the listener through life itself. Originally written as a teenager, the record has now been restored with the help of his friends, remixed by Ólafur himself and remastered by Nils Frahm. The cover art was redesigned and enhanced by Torsten Posselt at FELD using the original photographs taken by Stuart Bailes during a trip to Ólafur’s home in Iceland in 2007.

To experience the record in the present day is not only to experience the past, but also the sheer timelessness and relevance of these compositions, and the ambition Ólafur has had from the very beginning. “Fast forward 10 years, our relationships and knowledge in sound have matured, but you can still hear this urgency in Óli’s songs that caught my ears to begin with”, states Robert Raths.

Words from Ólafur, June 2017:

 “I spent a couple of weeks in some sort of a time machine, opening up and working on 12-year-old recordings. There was noise in the microphones, some channels seemed accidentally muted, but sometimes I found myself admiring what my teenage self was capable of. It was somehow charming. Well, most of it. So I fixed the stuff that wasn’t before sending it off to Nils Frahm for remastering. 

It was an ambitious outing. When I was 18 my uncle passed away from cancer. It was the first time I had experienced the passing of someone close to me, so I dedicated my work to him. Around the same time his first grandchild was born, and was named after him. I was inspired by the joy and positivity he brought, and saw that somehow life was extended after our death. So I set out to create a solid piece of music that would take us through the circle of life. 

This work by a highly emotional teenager has been revived, matured and, I hope you’ll agree, improved by some of my favourite people in this world. I’m grateful to see it get another chance to shine and I hope you will enjoy this journey to the past.”
