Paavoharju

Paavoharju is a Finnish music collective known for atmospheric, experimental/psychedelic folk that blends field recordings, lo-fi electronics and uncanny, dreamlike songwriting.

Their album Laulu laakson kukista is often cited for its mystical, cave-like atmospheres and use of field recordings. The group's work has been associated with Fonal Records and the Finnish experimental folk scene.

A single DeBaser review celebrates Paavoharju's uncanny, atmospheric take on folk — mixing field recordings, lo-fi electronics and childlike imagery. Laulu laakson kukista is described as a mystical, beautiful, and absurdly delightful record. The writing highlights both moments of pure folk intimacy and surreal, pop-like interludes.

For:Listeners of experimental and psychedelic folk, fans of ambient textures, field-recording enthusiasts and those who like whimsical, surreal songwriting.
