Comment: Taiunta is a project by Henry Vistbacka, an idiosyncratic hip-hop musician from Finland. The debut album Korkeammalle was released in February 2007, the sophomore issue Suoraan Kohti in September 2010. In any cases, the last named album is one of the best hip-hop wholes I have ever heard because of not being hip-hop music in usual sense at all. Vistbacka is shooting incessantly rhymes which are supplemented with the veils of dark ambient, the cutting shards of witch house, obscure kind of club dance, and bent funk music. Taiunta continues the best traditions of vanguard-ish Finnish music (Pan Sonic, Erkki Kurenniemi, Paavoharju, Kimmo Pohjonen, Pekka Airaksinen, Kemialliset Ystävät, Kospel Zeithorn etc). A beautiful shit.
