* In process of stocking. 70 copies limited edition * "Juho Toivonen is a 24-year old musician from Pori, Finland who is just beginning to flourish as an artist. In 2021 his debut solo tape arrived via Finland’s Ikuisuus label and Suurpää is his sophomore follow up. On this release Toivonen has created two sparse yet engaging side-long tracks. Toivonen’s music displays a wise-beyond-his-years patience rarely exhibited in young artists. “Suurpää I” features deep drones, gauzy swells and intermittent electronic swirls as the backdrop for a repeating low-mid guitar. The overall effect brings to mind Idea Fire Company at their most sustained and repetitive. On the flip side Toivonen holds long deep tones to maximize a contemplative mood. As the piece moves towards its conclusion these tones give way to a subtle rhythm that eases listeners into a uniquely meditative state. Toivonen’s future appears bright with such stunning early entries in his catalog and we can’t wait to hear more!" - C/S

Notes:
And it came to pass that Ilúvatar called together all the Ainur and declared to them a mighty theme, unfolding to them things greater and more wonderful than he had yet revealed; and the glory of its beginning and the splendour of its end amazed the Ainur, so that they bowed before Ilúvatar and were silent. Then Ilúvatar said to them: 'Of the theme that I have declared to you, I will now that ye make in harmony together a Great Music. And since I have kindled you with the Flame Imperishable, ye shall show forth your powers in adorning this theme, each with his own thoughts and devices, if he will. But I win sit and hearken, and be glad that through you great beauty has been wakened into song.'
