Now you know why there are so many saunas in Finland. Actually this is a unique, innovative sauna design that resembles a beer barrel. Savusauna Smokesauna - Salmenranta Finnish site Sauna definition
The sauna is a specially built insulated room or cabin which is heated to 80 - 100 degrees Celsius (176 - 212 Fahrenheit) by means of rocks heated by preferably wood, but also by electricity and gas. It is used for bathing nude in the hot air, and periodic wafts of steam from water thrown on the rocks, which stimulates circulation and deep cleans the skin by opening the pores, resulting in mental and physical relaxation and well-being.

Kalevala - The Finnish National Epic
Written for Virtual Finland by Anneli Asplund,
The Kalevala Society, the Finnish Literature Society
Kalevala painting by Akseli Gallen-Kallela:
Kullervo Departs for the War, 1901 The first edition of the Kalevala appeared in 1835, compiled and edited by on the basis of the epic folk poems he had collected in Finland and Karelia. This poetic song tradition, sung in an unusual, archaic trochaic tetrametre, had been part of the oral tradition among speakers of Balto-Finnic languages for two thousand years. When the Kalevala appeared in print for the first time, Finland had been an Autonomous Grand Duchy for a quarter of a century. Prior to this, until 1809, Finland had been a part of the Swedish empire.

Finnish characterized
Finnish
  • Pronunciation: Easy in the sense that it uses a small number of sounds which are subject to a surprisingly small amount of allophonic variation; difficult in the sense that the ability to speak and understand Finnish is crucially dependent on having learned to distinguish between long and short vowels and consonants , and learning to articulate unstressed syllables crisply without the slightest trace of slurring or reduction, this being the exact opposite of what an English speaker is likely to do. All Finnish words have their main stress on the first syllable , and the basic intonation patterns are easily learned.
  • Grammar: First the good news: no grammatical gender, almost no irregular nouns or verbs, there is usually a simple one-to-one mapping relationship between ending and function or meaning. The bad news is an extremely complex set of morphophonemic alternations known as "consonant gradation" which results in most lexical morphemes having at least two highly divergent forms: varvas "toe"

Our guitarist and drummer have played together since they were ten years old, when they got their first instruments. I joined them in 2000, when their old singer decided to leave. Along the years we have had several bass-players but our current one looks like he's gonna stick with us. Where is the name of the band coming from ? As I wasn't yet in the band while it got it's strange name, i'm not really even sure why we are called Disco Ensemble. We were called just "Disco." before, but a few years ago another band called "disco" showed up in Finland and we didn't wanted to be mixed up with these sissies, so we added "ensemble" to the end of our name. It really is a confusing name, but weird enough for people to remember it. What musicians or artists did have a major influence in your life / work ?
