VAPAA-S/T, CDR, 2004, FINLAND





Prototypical open-ended Finnish freak folk explorations from an outfit that's essentially Keijo And The Free Players minus the Virtanen brothers, though with a more amorphous approach than that deployed in The Free Players. On this, their second release, Vapaa traffic in liminal, watery, droning and rustling
5 A.M.-isms of a very intoxicating sort.

  2. Though I'm from Finland, never heard of Vapaa. Grabbed it, thanks.

  3. very much digging the final track, Huonoilma, with its murky puddles of synth and weighty drum machinations. Stupified by the end of this one. Not sure if that's good or bad.

  4. Last track left me stoned, and I am straight-edge. God bless these mighty Finns! Thanks for the great blog!
