New album of frosty Finnish band Jääportit released as CD digipak by Epidemie Records on the 12th of May 2009.
"Voimasuo" (Vigor Swamp in English) album contains a bit over 50 minutes of wide-ranging music combining everything from dreamy ethereal ambient to cold rhythmical Nordic electronics and melancholic post-rock.
Intense, strong, polymorphous and mostly instrumental album hardly fits in conventional categories, because it's kind of a musical labyrinth, definitely worth of exploring.
Jääportit is a music project by Tuomas M. Mäkelä (keyboards, music and sound) and Mindy M. Heinonen (violin, voice and visual art) from Tampere, Finland.
Tuomas is also a sound design student at TAMK School of Art and Media. The production of the album's music from composing, recording and producing to mixing and mastering was solely made by Tuomas.
