Antti Tolvi
Maapallo
*200 copies limited edition* "In our oversaturated digital age, where ubiquitous media connections enable instant gratification and a continuous flood of competing interests, we often make snap judgments as we multitask through masses of incoming information. Technological advances were supposed to unleash creative thinking, but this deluge has instead led to an erosion of our creativity and attention. In many ways, the idea of a 'long-form' music is unsuitable for and out of phase with our time…
Spectral Organ / Feedback Gong
Finnish artist Antti Tolvi operates at the nexus of performance and installation. His work, which is concerned with how sound operates in the spaces that contain it, is a meditation on how sound reveals itself, in time and in space to the listener. Each of the works captured on this edition dwell in the reductive, the subtle and the sus-tained. The pieces seek to draw attention to microtonal variation and flutter. They arc in a slow reveal that high-lights Tolvi’s patience and his unwavering des…

Church Organ
Antti Tolvi says: "That record opened many doors for me. After years of working with pianos of course led me to organs, and finally to church organs.

Feeling it in every cell. And it's not all about the sound. You can feel the warm wind in your whole body. Bird song. Scent of flower. Colors of the sky. Na…
Taikuri Tali
Antti Tolvi is a self-taught finnish musician known for his participation in groups like Avarus, Kemialliset Ystävät, Lauhkeat Lampaat, Päivänsäde and Rauhan Orkesteri.
Taikuri Tali is a typical example of finnish psychedelic folk music. A delectable solo work, not so minimalistic, as his first Pianoketo double LP on Fonal records, but a more trippy psychedelic one! His music takes on a meditative quality, with organ melodies & electronic noisy sounds. An amazing work and one of his best.
