The mission of this four-man 'pataljoona' (battalion) is to make the
stylistic walls come tumbling down. 'Gendre music is factual music
with all the pieces safely in their right places. I want to get rid of
anything smacking of jazz pure and simple. These pieces draw on the
subconscious, other worlds, a whiff of something we try to pinpoint by
musical means', says Jani Malmi. And the means are nothing to be
scoffed at: the group has experience of dozens of leading Finnish
bands since the 80's. No more of the 'same old scheme plus solos' of
gendre jazz. Free rein from the very first bars to the last note. The
'battalion' turns off the highway to explore fresh new lands right off
the beaten track.
Jani Malmi is one of the most stylish guitarists in Finnish jazz...
looking discretely for an expression beside the typical in jazz...
'pataljoona' is, so far, the most radical, and perhaps the most
interesting change (in his style). The trio has received an addition
from Yrjana Sauros [harmonica], a well known, and original humourist.
And the musical 'gendre' has become almost unpredictable. Malmi's
compositions are now journeys into imaginary, or real, worlds with
differing styles. The feelings change from heavier, but well
controlled and economic squeezes to a dream-like beat, or even to very
melodic and sensitive harmonies. pataljoona's fuse has been incited
with fury... Jukka Hauru -Helsingin Sanomat
Yet another great Finnish jazz record! Jani Malmi has worked out a CD
full of good music, that is hard to label. ...the compositions, and
the playing, lower the barriers between musical gendres. ...one of the
first things to stand out is the way Jani Malmi uses 'effects'. The
guitar signals must have passed through several processors, but, the
difference, compared to some 'effect-ridden enthusiasts', arises from
Malmi's skill to master his machines - let it be called a sense of
style. This record offers challenges to those who want them, and easy
'stream-of-consciousness' to those who enjoy such. ...(this music)
might alter your opinion about Finnish modern jazz. S.H. -JazzIt
