"Talvihorros is an electro-acoustic ambient musician who’s carefully woven threads of melodic guitar, electronic noise and distant percussion create paradoxical feelings of warmth and impending doom. Fans of Fennesz, Keith Fullerton Whitman, Labradford and Tim Hecker will find much to enjoy."

RELEASED:
Talvihorros - Some Ambulance - Ltd CD (Sold Out) and Download
(Benbecula Records - 31.08.09)
"The album boasts a handful of beautiful meditations...Though the tracks complement one another, each ultimately feels like a different chapter in Chatwin's wide-ranging and engrossing novel."
Textura
"'Some Ambulance' should be the first port of call for those with even a passing interest in where electro-acoustic and ambient music is heading in 2009/10, while I can imagine the uninitiated finding lots to love too...Talvihorros' release has come from nowhere and knocked me sideways. It is not an exaggeration to say this is one of my favourite records this year. 8.9/10"
[sic] Magazine
"...this album draws tiny bits of inspiration from disparate sources. There’s a hint of Badalamenti in the Western chords of “Death of a Dream†and some Scanner in the conversational samples between tracks four and five. The overall vibe is reminiscent of the more active, half-caffeinated instrumental ambience of the mid-nineties, made by artists who wanted people to listen, not to sleep. Based on the distance between It's Already On Fire and Some Ambulance, Talvihorros may well be on his way to some remarkable achievements. 7/10"
The Silent Ballet
"...straddling post rock, and neo classical but not really using the cliches of either and coming up with something wholly original and moving. Recommended."
Norman Records

Talvihorros - Its Already on Fire - Self-Released Hand Numbered CDR (Sold Out)
(Kaivo Records - 03.11.08)
"Every instrument and sound is placed with certain intention, and the effect of all the parts ends up creating this whole that at a distance looks quite accidental. Do we hear ten individual musicians in a room, meandering through the afternoon, each with a different instrument or computer in their laps? Or is it the work of one man with a keen channel into himself, solid attention to detail, and a well-drawn schematic for how to create towers of sound? 8/10"
Foxy Digitalis
"...compact constructions that quietly dazzle..."
Textura
"The music is quite cinematic at times, very subtle and reveals more with successive listens. If you like Sylvain Chaveau or Colleen, this will most likely appeal, without sounding like either of them."
Boa Melody Bar
"...whoever has made this clearly has 'the ear' as they've managed to create something pretty fresh sounding."
Norman Records
