New Weird Finland

New Weird Finland is a genre of experimental music that emerged in Finland in the early 2000s. It is characterized by its eclectic mix of styles, including elements of folk, jazz, classical, and electronic music. The genre is often described as a combination of traditional Finnish music with modern electronic sounds. It is often characterized by its use of unusual instrumentation, such as the kantele, a traditional Finnish stringed instrument, and its incorporation of field recordings and found sounds. The genre has been described as a "sonic exploration of the Finnish landscape" and has been compared to the work of avant-garde composers such as John Cage and Karlheinz Stockhausen.
