Ground's Dream Cosmic Love is now available again. Listen and download HERE.
Originally released on CDR by Students Of Decay, 2006.

"Uton's atmospheric, textural and associational drifts display a real command of the power of subliminal suggestion, with Ground's Dream Cosmic Love in particular representing a real high water mark for Hirvonen's marginal musical campaign thus far; the liminal and muted sonic events here accruing like layers of silt and slowly mobilized by distant gusts of Alan Splet-like Eraserhead ambience. Cocoon yourself deep inside these amber-lit drifts of fibrous and dusty cellular flow and experience the siren song of Hirvonen's hypnogogic musical brilliance as the masterful atmospheres here slowly advance you though successive perceptual thresholds, each a rung deeper down the rabbit hole" - Mutant Sound


Pupil Wah's first album (cassette) is now released by 267 Lattajjaa.

Out now!

UTON - FROM THE TWILIGHT, NEXT TO NOWHERE AND DISAPPEARED - cd
Released by Musik Atlach. Edition of 300 copies.


"All material on this album was recorded already around 2004-2005 in Tampere, using prepared electric guitar and effects (mostly bass distortion, echo and reverb), violin bow and few simple & cheap second hand keyboards + manipulated voice (some other instruments too, if I remember well)- and recorded with cassette four-track and later digitally edited and mixed. I wanted to release it earlier, but never had a really good possibility to do that. It took long time to just listen to these tracks, and feel the ambience, and choose the best parts (from total 3 full cd's). So kind of difficult work, but at the same time one of the most favourite result. It's maybe the most atmospheric ambient album on Uton catalogue too; transcendental and dark, like the night sky full of mysteries" - Uton

If you want to buy a copy of this album, please write to utonspace @ gmail.com
Price is 11 euros 10 euros + postage. Or order straight from Musik Atlach.

"This epic Jam comes from some of the major key players in Europe’s Free-Folk/Improv units, touching on the collective hoedowns of Sunburned Hand of the Man, NNCK and Fuzzed out 70’s Psych Rock communes, this jam session from Finland a few years ago is a one time project called WYZ consisting of Jani (Uton), Jari (Kulkija, Vapaa), Jukka (Rambling Boys), Erno (Garden of Worm) and Veli (Tulasi, Kutomo).These guys channel out a deep, slow building flow of percussion, that grows in size, speed and instruments, steering all member into tranced out submission…"
