Puoskari "The Audio Hustler"


Top level Music reviews Psytrance reviews

Finland keeps proving that they make the weirdest music out there. Freakdance Records is one of several Finnish labels that focus on the more experimental side of psychedelic trance, and they are now out with their first artist album, done by Puoskari (O. Nuotio). I have always looked at Finland as a country full of vodka and sauna, and when I look inside the cover of this CD, there are tons of party pictures, most of them included bottles and drinking. So what we get here is some vodka trance, perfect for your party in the sauna…

This guy sure knows how to make things different. The first track has some guitar samples that remind me of some country music or something. We also get a groovy, pumping rhythm, and tons of weird sounds that sounds a bit like some kind of disco music from the 70’s! Funny and weird trance. Track 2 has a vibe the reminds me of some old PC games, mixed with groovy rhythms and funky disco sounds. Funny melodies and variation all the way. Track 3 continues the funky groove and bubbles of funny sounds. This music will for sure make people smile at a party! Track 4 is one of many favourites on this album. This track has a more floating vibe, still with all the crazyness you can imagine. Melodic, funny trance. This reminds me actually a lot of Orichalcum! Track 5 follows the same vibe, but sounds even weirder, including several Finnish voice samples!

Track 6 is more stumping, with a bit darker, but still very weird and funny sounds. Really fun to dance to and for home listening. Track 7 has a very funky bass and is totally different from everything else being released. It probably gets too weird for some people, but personally I think it sounds great! I still get this Orichalcum feeling, but this is a bit lighter and more melodic. Track 8 sounds just totally crazy. I have never, ever heard anything like it! Track 9 has some funny breaks with scary sounds, a really deep bass groove, and of course tons of psychedelic, weird sounds. The last track on this album has more focus on the melody than the beats, and it sounds really great! Again I get this 80’s video/PC game feeling.

This is for sure one of the funniest albums I have ever heard. Perfect for those of you who are tired of the usual psytrance, and want something full of funny sounds and melodies. Way to go Freakdance crew!
