Finnish music remains quite unknown to the rest of the world. Apart from Kemialliset Ystävät and Pan Sonic, not much else is recognized musically from this obscure part of the world. Hopefully, that will change soon, thanks to the magnificent album “Hintergarten” by Finnish artist Hannu. Like folktronica artists Colleen, Susumu Yukota, Tunng and Keiren Hebden, Hannu combines a heavy mix of lo-fi production and distinctive melodies with his own imaginative jumble of twinkles and stars. Standout track “Valtameri” sends me right out into the stratosphere every time I hear it.
