One day while I was searching for new music, I accidentally discovered Finnish Experimental Psych Folk which sounds like an absurd genre.

One artist that is my favorite out of the genre is Lau Nau, who has a seriously awesome way of handling her instrumentation.

What do you guys think? Anyone want to hear more in this genre? I have a bunch of recommendations for those looking to explore this genre of hippie music.

when I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child - but now I am a man.
So you discovered Fonal? So did everyone who reads P4K back in, like, 2007? Even earlier actually, Paavoharju's Yhä hämärää came out in '05.

I don't care much for the dreamy/dreary elf music Islaja, Kiila, Lau Nau et al make, but Fonal does put out some really wonderful stuff too.

Ville Leinonen has done weirdo drone folk, old fashioned schlager pop and a lot in between, and is really loving good at all of it:

Risto's latest record is one of my fav psych-pop things ever:

Eleanoora Rosenholm is fun creepy electropop (shouts out to het)...:

...and one of Eleanoora Rosenholm's dudes is in Finnish kraut/space/prog legends Circle:

Then there's the, uh, chiptunes of Shogun Kunitoki:

And one of my big favourites, the weirdo naivistic popsters TV-Resistori:

Good label.

Thanks for the recommendations Ras Het.

Yea I wasn't reading P4K back in 2007 and this is a recent discovery for me so I appreciate you opening the door to other Fonal artists and sounds. Definitely enjoying their sound and vibe.
