about

We start to play with this quartet around september 2021 in former Lapinlahti hospital in Helsinki.
The building is nowdays transformed into artists work spaces. lapinlahdenlahde.fi

We did not make any plans how and what to play musically. We rather just started to talk about the world situation and personal small things. Music came out naturally between the verbal conversations.
We feel that we continue the dialog with music; listening, commenting and sharing ideas by playing. In some point we also start to play some original compositions we had from band members.

This outlet is mostly a collection of collective improvisations, open playing and cooperation without written songs.

The written compositions here are: For Theresa by Ville Rauhala, Manila Mastodont and Another blues by Julius Heikkilä and Tähtitarha by Antero Priha.

This music is recorded on six months period of meetings from october 2021 to april 2022. Recorded live on rehearse room in Lapinlahti.

PMM# CS27 Blurt - Blurt + Singles
by Blurt

supported by 4 fans who also own “Common Language”

I first heard Blurt on their side of the double album A Factory Quartet in 1981. They seemed to be evidence of the creative possibilities that were quite rightly the result of the implosion/explosion that had begun in 1976. Neil Procter
