The rules of the game were clear when the credits for the soundtrack of Aki Kaurismäki's debut film Crime and Punishment gave the names Franz Schubert, Dmitri Shostakovich, Olavi Virta, the Renegades, Harri Marstio and Billie Holiday. Dostoevskian to say the least! Added to these as Kaurismaki’s career progressed were Tchaikovsky (the Pathetique Symphony a dozen or so times!), Shostakovich, Chuck Berry, the great Estonian Georg Ots, rhythm & blues, Finnish rock’n’roll (Melrose, with Tokela in the vocal lead), Jussi Bjorling, and Toshitake Shinohara - the Japanese composer of a host of beautiful scores now settled permanently in Karkkila, home of Kaurismäki himself.

Not all are familiar to a non-Finnish audience. Yet Finn and foreigner, familiar and unfamiliar are as such one seamless entity, their associations equally fascinating. The director himself says he grabs armfuls of discs off his shelf at home before setting off for the editing room. The music is seldom original: Mauri Sumen (the Leningrad Cowboys films), Anssi Tikanmaki (Juha, “the last silent film of the 20th century”), to a lesser degree Antero Jakoila, whose moving bandoneon sets The Man without a Past rolling.

Kaurismäki it was who created “the worlds worst rock n’ roll band”, the Leningrad Cowboys, that abandoned the tundra for the United States. The result: two full-length films, a few shorts and a documentation (The Total Balalaika Show) of the amazing meeting of East and West in the concert given by the Leningrad Cowboys together with the Red Army Ensemble. The merging of elements of Finnish hits, rock ‘n’ roll and Slav overtones was personified in Rauli “Badding” Somerjoki (1948-87), a vocalist who met an untimely death and to whom Drifting Clouds is dedicated. Harri Marstio, Topi Sorsakoski, Markus Allan and Marko Haavisto (renowned for his Salvation Army band in The Man without a Past) all represent the same generation and the same all round awareness as Badding. And they similarly share a respect for all musical genres.

At the core is the Finnish popular song: its unsurpassed composer Toivo Karki, and great singers such as Henry Theel, Reijo Taipale and Annikki Tahti, whose most legendary numbers are now recorded on film. Tahti’s Monrepos, for example, was the best-selling record of the 1950s, epitomising the feelings and loss of the post-war era impossible to express in words. The longing in Taipales Satumaa, the fairytale land across the sea, captures the very essence of what matters most: lost happiness, melancholy, memories are recurring themes that are again varied by Kaurismäki's American slants handled with the delicacy of a memory. Olavi Virta, the undisputed king of the Finnish tango and the Finnish hit in general, features well over a dozen times in nine films. Ariel, for example, ends with a shot of a ship lit up in a way that recalls the glamour of Amarcord.. Playing in the background is Virta’s dazzling version of Over the Rainbow.

Aki Kaurismäki delighted the media by claiming that the tango was in fact born in Finland, and that the Argentinean tango is nothing but an imitation. After the Second World War famous tangos such as La Cumparsita, Jealousy, etc., known the world over in purely instrumental versions were supplied with Finnish lyrics. This was partly due to the inhibited undercurrent of the open-air dance pavilions popular in Finland in summer. The Finnish male pressing his lady to his heart on the dance floor is lost for words, but the tango expresses his thoughts. Aki Kaurismäki likewise tells a story in song. Music is the nations latent memory, a utopia amid grinding reality, an engram from early childhood, maybe a sound image heard in the womb already..
