Es: Kesämaan lapset (CD, LP, Digital)

Published May 27, 2009 in Music.
This is my fifth solo release as Es. Kesämaan lapset was recorded during a three year period. It is a mix of soundscapes and pop tunes. You can hear influences varying from contemporary indie to ancient classical music. It’s a summer album and a childhood photo album. The name translates as “The Children Of The Summerland”. It an homage to the Pekka Streng album “Kesämaa” (Summerland) which is one of my favourite Finnish albums ever made.

Es: A Love Cycle (CD, Digital)

Published February 25, 2001 in Music.

The second album from Es aka. Sami Sänpäkkilä. On this album the main source of sound is three turntables bought from fleamarkets 10 dollars a piece. Those and a few effects are the only soundsources that have been used. The athmosphere maintains its course of melancholy through these romantic, and at times heartbreaking sound collages.

Es: Flick (CD)

Published February 24, 2000 in Music.

Wow, here's something I never thought would surface again - the incredibly rare debut cd from none other than Fonal Records boss Sami Sänpäkkilä - finally for our listening pleasure. It originally surfaced in 2000 way back before the words 'Finnish' 'Forest' and 'Folk' were uttered in the same sentence, but here is where you can hear the framework for Sänpäkkilä's patented sound which was came to such a peak with the gorgeous 'Sateenkaarisuudelma'.
