Mono - Yearning
Mono comes from Japan, bringing along its specific mix of postrock, metal and shoegaze. Its last album, 'Palmless Prayer / Mass Murder Refrain' was given maximum rating points by the Stylus magazine, naming it 'one of the most superb music production of the year'. |

Scandinavian Music Group - Hölmö rakkaus
This successor of the Finnish retro pop formation Ultra Bra has wandered off to the fields of alt country, mixing it with some nostalgic Finnish indie music. Its lyrics sound good even if you don't understand a word of Finnish. |

CDOASS - Speak To Me
CDOAss continues the latest Swedish musical tradition to grab ABBA by its horns and force it into intercourse with unshaved underground dwellers. |

Pastacas - Jaanusele
Pastacas plays elegant lo-fi acustic geek-punk electro and compiles its music of minute particles, thus creating a whole that is lyrical, yet stupendously weird. If Pastacas were a bird, it would be a mechanical one. If Pastacas were an animal, then a vegetarian one. Were it a flower, then a mirroring blossom from the Field of the Mirrors in the 'Secret of the Third Planet', a Soviet sci-fi/avangard cartoon that everybody here seem to know by heart. |
The most legendary duet of Estonia is back. Music that defies all attempts to describe it. ÖÄK proves that Plink Plonk, famous for its tradition of two-man-bands, is not forced to find its performers from abroad only. |

The Estonian stoner rock pioneer, a madman, shaman and a prophet, coming out from a cloud of mist with its nostrils smouldering and beard frightfully unkempt. |
