The psycho-atmospheric ambiguity of recent Finnish film art corresponds entirely to Klima Kalima's musical approach. In this music, too, comedy lurks behind tristesse, despair hides in the guise of humor. Accordingly, the music constantly crosses the demarcation lines between free jazz and artificial rock, sometimes briefly sprinkling in sentimentalized country fragments or using echoes of "Fingo" - the Finnish version of tango. The trio, which has been working together for many years and has won several jazz awards, experiments virtuously with the figurative associative power of the tones.
