Combining traditional Finnish music with Electronic Dance Music, all on the accordion. Antti Paalanen superimposes the good-natured atmosphere of the accordion on the heady beats of electronic music. After all, the accordion has always made people dance. With Antti Paalanen it's just a little bit tougher. Metal lover since adolescence, Antti Paalanen adds to this blend of accordion and technoid influences a throaty singing inspired by Siberian traditions. This fusion of the ancient and the modern gives the impression of participating in a Viking festival under acid. For the last few years Antti has been touring festivals all over the World – mostly around Europe, but also in USA, Canada, Russia and Japan. Paalanen has released four solo albums: Äärelä (2007), Breathbox (2010), Meluta (2014) and Rujo (2019).
