Laulu laakson kukista
“Finnish collective on the Fonal label scatters Europop, rustic folk, pastel electronics, and woolen drones like a tossed deck of playing cards.”
Yhä hämärää
“The back flap of *Yhä hämärää* captures a black interior squinting at green bushes. Framed by the room's torn sun-brightened curtains, small shapes spell out codes on the glass but it's hard to distinguish exactly what's leaving the dim traces. Paavoharju is just as enigmatic. The Finnish trio's yet to accrue much stateside press, and the lack of outside English-language material forces the review”
Joko Sinä Tulet Tänne Alas Tai Minä Nousen Sinne
“The Finnish group Paavoharju's first album since 2008 was conceived and recorded in a variety of abandoned buildings, including a self-built sauna deep in a swamp. The music's a dense weave of submerged tape loops, crackly field recordings, and disembodied snippets of voice and shadowy instruments.”
