Valo Siroutuu is a companion piece to the record of the same name. Valo Siroutuu (“The Light Scatters”) is a collaborative song cycle written on and for the island of Kimitoön, Finland. Incorporating in-situ field recordings, impromptu outdoor songwriting, contemplative and patient chamber arrangements and lyrics delivered both in Finnish and English, the album thematically pursues observations of and meditations on place, time, nature, home, play, and language.
Valo Siroutuu is a full-color art booklet featuring lyrics, notes, artwork, and photos by the artists. And each book includes a unique digital download code so the reader can download the album and read the book alongside it.
The book is printed on 80# text weight paper stock on 100% post-consumer recycled paper.
