Jussi Reijonen - Three Seconds - Kolme Toista Music CD

As I write these notes sitting on my balcony in July 2022, it has been more than 9 years since the release of my debut album. The time since has been a personally tumultuous period of twists and turns - retreat, reflection, realization, reassessment, therapy, triumph, trial and error - entangled in a decade-long creative block. Then the Covid-19 pandemic happened, and the world stopped. Like so many of us caught in the new eerie calm, I retreated into inner spaces. I began revisiting sketches of ideas I had accumulated over the years, and finally, very, very slowly, new music started to come.
