Comment: Aan is a Finnish
combo whose sound could be classified as forest folk in a general manner,
though, the combo´s aesthetics does have embrace enough other experimental
elements either. More concretely, Aan`s soundscape is constituted by bristled
improvised electro-acoustic progressions, throat singing, vowel experiments and
heavy spaced-out drones thereby reminding a little bit of Vibracathedral
Orchestra, Uton, and Kemialliset Ystävät, for instance. All of that results in convincing
shaman-alike insights and outer space explorations. The album starts off with Aurinkotanssi, and finishes off with Aurinkotranssi.
