Review by Katherine Vizcaíno

Altaat's latest album, Ajelehtiva Lyhty, is a captivating and immersive musical journey. The album features a unique blend of traditional Finnish folk music and contemporary electronic elements, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and modern.

From the opening track, "Ikuinen Ilo", listeners are transported to a world filled with haunting melodies and intricate rhythms. The use of traditional instruments such as the kantele and accordion, combined with electronic beats and synths, creates a mesmerizing sound that is both familiar and fresh.

Throughout the album, Altaat showcases their versatility as musicians, seamlessly transitioning between slower, more contemplative tracks like "Suden Hetki" and upbeat, danceable tunes like "Puhuri". The use of vocal harmonies adds another layer of depth to the music, creating a sense of community and shared experience.
