Comment: as the Finnish artist Thuoom did close his second grand cycle in order to begin a studio hiatus, there are up a couple of compilation issues released simultaneously (10 years In Noise, and reCycle 2). These ones gather together a bunch of unreleased tunes having no particular fit with the albums he composed during the second cycle. Indeed, there is represented a bunch of 13 tracks full of different sort of sonic experiments with uncanny rhythms, heavily boreal infused soundscapes, throbbing techno cadences of recent Finnish witches, amplified electricity and elliptically trudging noises, interrupted yet still loopy circuits, extended guitar chords and bold drones from the tundra. All is changing permanently around the listener yet fulfilling it through slowly changing cycles the ultimate effect will grow even bigger. At a time one can discover he/she has stepped unremarkably into another forest or landscape. Without any doubt, there can be drawn parallels upon his outstanding compatriots Ilpo Väisänen, and deceased Mika Vainio aka Pan Sonic, obviously one of the best artists having ever existed within the history of electronic music. Furthermore, I can personally say I am very proud of my mighty paternal grandmother who is Finnish. But such sort of music adds an extra charge to it (of course, I know such sort of feelings are not very supported in the contemporary highly tolerant Western Europe). A must-have listening for any experimental music fan by a man who has established himself as a symbol within the weblabel world. And as usual, this mighty and cathartic miscellany is released on his own imprint called Textural Healing.
