v/a: Maan Matoset, Peippo(pok-005), (Peippo 2007)
"truly one of the most lovely looking & sounding comps in the history of compilations, Maan Matoset is the sound of Fins tinkering, shuffling, strumming,,, some of it in the form of gentle songs & some in the form of abstract squeaking & droning electronics or folk percussion. it all flows like an album or a river of broken church bells. tomutonttu, kiila, pekko kappi & kuupuu & keijo & taikuri tali & lau nau etc. etc?..they are all here & more..."

Reviews
“What could be better than a cd (in hand-assembled, colorful felt-tip art adorned sleeves) featuring fifteen tracks from such Finnish underground free-freak-folk luminaries as Kiila, Lau Nau, Kemialliset Ystavat, Paivansade, Avarus, Kuupuu, Pekko Käppi, Islaja, and a host of others whom we've mostly never heard before (Hertta Lussu Assa, Sala-Arhimo,Taikuri Tali, Lauhkeat Lampaat, Keijo & Jussi Karsikas, Tomutonttu, and SewerPyysalos) that come with twigs? Ok, so far there's only a few we can think of, mainly out of print cd-rs on the Jewelled Antler label, but but prove to be equally as wonderful as the ones already mentioned?? Well, how 'bout such a cd, with all those folks on it, and... a twig? Yep, Maan Matoset is referred to 'round these parts as "the Finnish twig comp" because it comes with an authentic twig, borrowed from some Finnish tree or bush, and built right into the packaging. We're already sold a lot of these in the store -- maybe the twig caught people's attention -- and listing it now we hardly need to give it a recommendation, 'cause we know AQ customers love all things Finnish, and twigs too. But it is indeed recommended, if you like haunting gentle sounds from the forest, including nature noises, female voices, electronics, bells, flutes, and myriad creaking things... The tracks range from abstract dronology to melodic, structured song singing, always hazy and mysterious in that imaginative, experimental, Finnish folk-psych fashion. A must have for fans of this scene and great introduction for those just tuning in!”
