 In the recording sessions of his first four albums as a leader, Pohjola's interest and knowledge in the possibilities of the recording studio grew from a mere documentary medium into a compositional tool.He had recorded two multi-tracked songs for his "Landmark" album in 2002, featuring multiple voices with fellow Finnish vocalist Johanna Grüssner.The success of Landmark led to further cooperation with Grüssner, and the first recording of the entire catalog of the original Moomin music songbook by Tove Jansson and Erna Tauro.
