Kemialliset YstÄvÄt

Siipi Empii

Kemialliset Ystävät is a long running musical collective headed by Finnish multimedia artist Jan Anderzén. The group's rotating contributors include virtuosic musicians, sound artists, mad electronic music professors, field recorders, singers, amateurs and professionals. Ikuisuus presents the project's 2018 LP, entitled 'Siipi Empii' (loosely translated from Finnish to 'A Wing Hesitates'). Anderzén explains, "The English translation unfortunately loses all the music and rhyme of the Finnish title but the meanings still there, kind of. The title is aiming to describe the movements of a butterfly and the weight/heat of the idea that every single flap of the wing can cause a storm/revolution." He has described the group's sound as sometimes "like an orchestra flying around in a tornado." These themes embody 'Siipi Empii', a wildly weird dose of electronic folk music crafted through sheer force of nature, an abstract organism guided gently by Anderzéns deft artistic touch. Limited to 300 copies.
