We’re thrilled to announce that the initial 300 copies of Tahmela Six’s debut album, “Mount,” have sold out faster than expected! Fear not! Due to popular demand, we’ve taken the initiative to press an additional 200 copies. The second batch will be available in late August, so mark your calendars!

“Mount” is also widely available on streaming platforms like Spotify and Tidal. If you’d like to purchase a digital copy, visit for example our Bandcamp site: HERE!

The long-awaited Tahmela Six vinyl is finally here! Another round of huge thanks for helping to materialize this fantastic Tahmela Six music into physical form goes to Stiina Lampio for the album artwork and Jon Thureson for the layout. Local poet J.K. Ihalainen for the liner notes & Arsi Keva from Ultraääni Records for the hype sticker. Helsingin Levypuristamo did an excellent job pressing the vinyl, and the one and only, always top-tier master record carver, Timmion Cutting!
