jyvaskyla, finland is the town of virtanen. everyone knows of
sonic wizard, keijo, by now, but he is not the only virtanen
around. longtime keijo collaborator (he's a member of the free
players and often plays with kheta hotem) sami virtanen builds
his own bridge to the cosmic frozen forests under the moniker,
mosaic antenna. this self-titled album is a minor masterpiece
filled with endless organic tape loops, guitar festering,
casios, and a whole bevy of unrecognizable instrumentation.
this melodic affair is the sound of trees in finland's arctic
circle, freezing half to death in winter, parched for sunlight
and longing for a forest fire. mosaic antenna has unleashed
the ghosts of lapland into the world and out into the ether.
there is so much beauty and magic here, i can barely contain
myself.
