"tuota tuota is the third full-length album by kiila. its songs were born of peaceful, focused work and intense rehearsals with friends, interspersed with sleep and mealtimes. the album features an eight-strong core line-up but, as always, the composition of the group varies effortlessly according to need. at this table, there is room for everyone. as musical form, songs have always been important to kiila, and consequently tuota tuota develops around its songs. on the other hand, the album consists of many details: the sound is full, the web of instruments more varied and carefully orchestrated than before. it is unnecessary to separate the electronic from the non-electronic components. different traditions of folk and pop music intermingle with electronic music and improvisation, tones and sound itself. this way, the album also poses questions about songs and songwriting. the motifs in the songs are not easy to render in english, but one can at least attempt to translate some of them: master of the house, elk antlers, tree bark, sound of rapids, fog, letters, calves, fingers. the list, however, doesn't make the songs easier to understand in a foreign language. the words sound archaic, anachronistic or timeless, the language of the myth."
