Have not heard Varttina in a long time. Love the instruments on that. And vox too
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 8:10:14 AM
Good morning, Brian D. I also love those tight Finnish harmonies. They remind me of the Bulgarian harmonies.
jimbeaudelaire 8:12:48 AM
"Recent unpleasantness" sounds more like gastric distress than a war centered on human bondage.
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 8:13:34 AM
"Alternative facts."
Brian D 8:21:42 AM
Probably found out about Varttina through thr Band Boiled in Lead from Minnesota. They sent out great flyers w all kinds of "World" etc bands. Omnium Records and Cooking Vinyl records labels. Bands like 3 Mustaphas 3. Oyster Band. Great discoveries
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 8:23:07 AM
I have heard on 'PRB lately a few DJs on a real Finnish music binge. Lots of interesting music coming out of there.
Brian D 8:23:53 AM
That's right. I caught that too in recent months
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 8:27:53 AM
And 3 Mustaphas 3 amaze me on how they can fluidly play in multiple styles.

I'm just getting over the beauty of Aster Aweke's vocals. I can always count on this show to lead the way
Brian D 8:33:08 AM
Yes! With a great sense of humor too. Or humour. There is a great box set from Cooking Vinyl

In previous shows, yes. No Hoven Droven today. I have Garmarna up next, though.
kentman 8:45:00 AM
Have you played Jade Warrior on your show, they were an interesting diversion from the plethora of Led Zep & Fleetwood Mac on FM during the early 70's

*Gets pointed shoes on.. does Stonehenge dance (last track)
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 8:46:25 AM

Aye, Brian D., I LOVE medieval music.
Brian D 8:48:03 AM
Gryphon was interesting very cool. Like this Gamarna too
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 8:49:17 AM
A lot of European folk music (like Garmarna) retains a medieval influence, too.

Same! DJ Liz Bot clued me into them awhile back.
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ (host) 9:13:01 AM
I edited this Cheer-Accident track. There was a few minutes of a disturbing voicemail message that, while interesting, really derailed the vibe.

Ha well now you've only piqued my curiosity more!
