Our Take

Finnish jazz duo Teppo Hauta-aho and Kalle Kalima have teamed up to unleash their latest sonic safari, "Kalmisto Kalima: Endangered Species." And let me tell you, this album is wild in all the right ways.

From the moment the first notes hit your ears, you know you're in for a ride. Hauta-aho's mastery of the double bass is on full display, providing a solid foundation for Kalima's guitar pyrotechnics. These two musical magicians weave a tapestry of sound that is at once unpredictable and deeply satisfying.

The album's title, "Endangered Species," hints at the endangered state of jazz in today's music landscape. But fear not, dear listener, because Hauta-aho and Kalima are here to save the day. Their music is a vibrant reminder of the power and beauty of the jazz tradition, infused with a contemporary twist that keeps things fresh and exciting.

Tracks like "Jungle Boogie" and "Safari Serenade" transport you to a musical safari unlike any other. You can almost hear the sounds of the rainforest as Hauta-aho's bass rumbles and Kalima's guitar screeches and soars.

So if you're in the mood for a musical adventure that's equal parts thrilling and soulful, look no further than "Kalmisto Kalima: Endangered Species." Hauta-aho and Kalima have crafted a work of art that will have you hitting repeat faster than you can say "encore!"
