From Karelia with love. Deep from the tremendous beauties of
Russia's northwestern Republic of Karelia, the world is
blessed with some incredible soundscapes materialized on tape
by the magic of magnetism: The tiny, home-run cassette imprint
Full Of Nothing has just released a split between Ous Mal and
Bedroom Bear. The former is the solo recording project of Olli
Aarni from Helsinki, Finland. After a few CDrs and his first
full length Nuojuva Halava on AustraliaÆs Preservation, the
22-year old artist continues with his slow-burning drone folk
of utmost, sweetest beauty, creating unagitated yet
spellbinding sounds drenched in vinyl and tape noise. Bedroom
Bear aka the young Sergei Dmitriev from near Saint Petersburg,
Russia, on the other hand is more straightforward and new
age-leaning, with splendid yet droning synth and e-piano
loops, layered and reverberated to build up an intriguing
tension.
The combination of these young artists from two geographically
and culturally connected regions who have discovered the world
of contemporary psych experimentalism absolutely makes sense,
so this is in every way a highly recommended release.
