Keijo hails from JyvΣskylΣ, Finland -- a small town in the north that
claims to be the center of the universe. In the sprawling Finnish
underground, Keijo is the wise sage who everyone admires. He has worked
and collaborated with Finnish acts such as Vapaa, Avarus, and Kheta
Hotem, while seeing cd-r releases on the ultra-hip pseudoArcana and Lal
lal lal labels.
Keijo broke through the wall of cd-r obscurity on our 6 CD Invisible
Pyramid comp last year, and has subsequently seen several excellent CD
releases on Foxy Digitalis. "for a while" picks up the reins where Brad
left off, but even we're a bit surprised with this one! While using all
acoustic sources, 'for a while' is flat out weird. I mean weird even
for Keijo. Essentially the structure utilized here is folk, but
somewhere way beyond the analogy of Buckley's Lorca dream-structure
being used to break down reality subconsciously.
It isn't even easy to listen to. Unsettling minimalist guitar riffs
drift under sheets of detuned/stretched-out bell samples. No, this
isn't the sort of weirdness that grabs you by the collar and shakes you
around a bit. This is another, more insidious weirdness that isn't
apparent right away, but rather you wake up one morning and realize you
weren't the person you were before.
