Clamour - Kurittu

Review by Xavier Thomas

Clamour's latest album, Kurittu, has been gaining attention for its unique blend of traditional Finnish folk music and modern electronic elements. The album features a range of instruments, including the kantele, accordion, and various percussion instruments, all woven together with electronic beats and ambient textures.

The album opens with "Kurittu," a haunting instrumental track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. From there, the listener is taken on a journey through a variety of moods and styles, from the upbeat and danceable "Kohti Uutta" to the introspective and melancholic "Nukkuva Metsä."

One standout track is "Kesäyö," which features a driving beat and soaring vocals that build to a powerful climax. Another highlight is "Talven Taika," which showcases the kantele and accordion in a beautiful and atmospheric arrangement.

Summary by Xavier Thomas

Kurittu is a captivating album that succeeds in blending traditional and modern elements to create something truly unique. Clamour has crafted a sound that is both rooted in tradition and forward-thinking, and the result is a musical experience that is both engaging and deeply satisfying.
