Biography

Viive's debut album Sen Jälkeen Kun explores themes of growth and the intrinsic need for connection. It ultimately took shape as a soundtrack to a movie that doesn't exist (yet).

"At times it can be as pungent as a sea buckthorn or sting like a nettle, but it can also feel as fresh and soft as the air in the tranquil of a summer night,” says Antti Niiranen.

”As well as loving to express myself through melodies, I find writing and playing with words quite natural and meaningful. This is something we also take into account in our compositions. The dynamically flowing soundscapes naturally carved space for us to explore the emotions and storyline lyrically as well. Sometimes compositions find their natural place as fully instrumental, but sometimes wordplay with the composition allows a path to dig deeper into the story,” describes Riikka Suutari.

Each track originated from open, improvised jams between the keys and drums by the warmth of the fireplace and was later refined to its final form.
