The thwack of a hammer on the side of an oil tank, bleating lambs and a revving tractor engine might not sound like music to you and me. But for Finnish accordionist and composer, Kimmo Pohjonen (pictured), these farm noises are the inspiration for the Earth Machine Music tour.
The tour is taking place on four farms. Each inspires a different blend of agricultural sounds which are recorded by Kimmo and then mixed with his own accordion composition back in Finland.
The final performance will take place live on each of the farms in May, with local farmers accompanying the musician by "playing some of their farming machinery".
It's hard to imagine how such a musical mash will turn out, but if the critics of previous concerts are anything to go by then the local rural community and lovers of modern music are in for something quite extraordinary.
The combined effect of his accordion playing and voice - along with the effects and surround sound - creates a compelling live experience, which has won him ardent fans around the world.
