Tuulikki Bartosik: “London”

Tracks
Written By Michael Gutierrez

Hump Day News loves accordions. It’s our curse, but Tuulikki Bartosik is the world’s blessing. Her compelling track “London” pushes the instrument into ambient, trance-laden spheres. Neither the drone of Walt McClements, nor the classical modernism of Joseph Petric. Bartosik high energy mix is a beast all its own.
