Anoa - Synphaera/Pénte, 2025
Anoa has been a long journey toward the light. Working on it has been a healing process for me. The songs have been in the making for a long time. The space of Anoa has opened in shorter stretches every year or two over several years, during moments when I have felt safe and nurtured.
Most of the songs were developed in the mornings, in a space lit by the pale northern sun. My intention has been that the music would not disturb the light, which simultaneously shines through it relentlessly. Since then, the forms of the pieces have evolved, but becoming familiar with the light remains at their core, bound together by the sensitivity of the dawn mind.
OVI EP - Aucourant Records, 2025
Ovi brings together three compositions, each featuring the human voice.
Includes remixes and remasters of Ea and Apokatastasis, and a new piece, Sizojani.
Elämänpuu - Voyager 1, 2022
Musician, sound artist Heikki Lindgren experiments with contemporary ambient music and aesthetics of archaic Karelian music.
Heikki has been studying the long sound aesthetics furthermore in his 'Ambient experimentations' release series.
In his collaboration with SARANA he plays traditional Karelian string instrument, jouhikko (bowed lyre). The album has been freely combined and mixed from their session material.
Apokatastasis Single - Voyager 1, 2019
Fidel Astro and Cedrik Zimmermann remixes included.
Andra - Atmoworks, 2009
The material was mostly composed in a little quiet village of a couple of hundred inhabitants where I lived in 2003-2007. I was then studying sound and music production in a nearby town. Older and newer compositions were deeply refined by the experience of the complete silence, loneliness and stillness. The hiss that finally grows from the inside is all giving, and doesn’t want anything else but to just fill everything that is with existence.
Ajan Geometria - Atmoworks, 2004
Produced and mastered by Vir Unis in the bubble studio.
This is a digital re-release of the original CD release.
Original text from Atmoworks site:
Sarana’s music embodies that northern european experimental electronic sound like Vladislav Delay and Autechre to name a few. One can also hear faint elements of Brian Eno, Ken Ishii, and Plastikman although ultimately, Sarana arrives at a unified sound all his own. Sarana’s music is produced in a live setting with no overdubs, dealing fully with the present and meditating with the crowd in real time. Crossfading in elements and hints of eastern tonal colors unquantized and loosely held together strands of fiber optic beats mesh with a virtual array of glitches,drifts, drones, pulses, blips, bleeps.
