The fifth Transkaakko album "Tuorla" is out on Running Moose Distribution, Moose´s Nest web-shop and also as Download-version 11.2.2012!
Transkaakko, known also as being part of great Balkan fever -compilation released last fall, goes now straight to space. Tuorla is space-folk, beautiful and ambitious work!
The band tells more:
"The music of this album is a selection of the works that we recorded between 2009 and 2011 for the Tuorla Planetarium in Finland. Rather than creating typical “space music” for the night sky shows we decided to cultivate our Transkaakko style and insights. Everybody knows what space looks like, but how
does it sound? We felt that space needs melancholic tunes, folksy melodies and ambiguous rhythms. This album tells you what came to our minds after listening to the stars for so many years. The history of our band goes back to the early 1980s when a few young amateur musicians based in Turku were drawn to playing folk songs from Southeast Europe and the Middle East. In 1995, the we changed our name to Transkaakko (‘southeast’ in Finnish) and decided to concentrate on our own songs. Tuorla is the second release of our label, Aarnihauta (‘Buried Treasure’)".

Ancient Bear Cult's Second album "Lullamoinen" Released
Check the second album of the finnish leading "pagan-folk" group Ancient Bear Cult. This interesting and album "Lullamoinen" and is available in 7th of September, 2011. Order your copy from our Distribution Shop!Ancient Bear Cult draws its inspiration from prehistoric and early medieval soundscapes. All of the instruments used by the band have a history of hundreds of years, so it is possible that similar bands have existed in the distant past. Since no music has survived from those times, neither as sheet music nor any other form, the members of A.B.C. have composed most of the songs in the band's repertoire by themselves, with the exception of performing also some old European folk tunes.
Instruments used by A.B.C. include Viking lyre, crwth and hurdy gurdy. Viking lyre is a replica of an instrument that was found in a grave of a Viking chief in the island of Gotland and has been dated to ca. 700 A.D. The ancient Welsh instrument crwth closely resembles Viking lyre but is, instead of plucking, played with a bow. Hurdy gurdy was used in medieval Europe for dance accompaniment.

Ärräpää Orchestran "Up To My Ears In Snow" ilmestynyt !
Ärräpää Orchestran kolmas kokopitkä ammentaa suoraan Roots-musiikin raikkailta ja elinvoimaisilta alkulähteiltä. Up To My Ears In Snow on värikäs ja monipuolinen paketti jossa lähdetään perusrullaavasta rock´n rollista a´la Little Feat ja matka jatkuu soulballadien , funkin, riipovan bluesin ja reippaan texmex -meiningin kautta armottomaan rockabillaukseen. Biisintekijöinä kunnostautuvat yhtyeen oman tuotannon lisäksi mm. Esa Eloranta, Maria Hänninen (joka myös vierailee levyllä!), Julie Black ja Bob Margolin. Kesän hyväntuulisin juurihoitolevy vie Ärräpää Orchestran maamme Roots-osaston kärkikaartiin!
"Up To My Ears In Show" on samalla Running Moose Productionsin uusimman levymerkin Puumarecordsin ensimmäinen julkaisu. Ei olisi voinut alkaa paremmin.
Voit ostaa levyn myös Running Moosen Label Shopista.
