Accordion Noir radio playlist 2012-10-03: Kimmo Pohjonen — Soundbreaker

AccNoir 2012-10-03

From ten years ago, here’s episode 306 of CFRO Co-Op Community Radio’s weekly hour-long Accordion Noir broadcast, focusing on some of the wildest and most out-there squeezebox music from all over the planet.  On this occasion, our lens focused in on Finland and specifically the work of Kimmo Pohjonen, in conjunction with the airing of his documentary, Soundbreaker, at the Vancouver International Film Festival.  Bruce actually managed to land an interview with this titan of modern accordion!  You can listen to it as digital audio courtesy of the Internet Archive.  Here’s its playlist:
