Unlike the hugely popular Finnish rock music (HIM, Nightwish, The Rasmus), contemporary Finnish folk music conveys Finnish and Finno-Ugric traditions—in a reinterpreted form—to international audiences. This article explores this transmission through a case study of Äijö, a song by Värttinä, the ‘quintessential’ Finnish world music band. Critical discourse analysis provides a unifying framework for examining the contribution of different folk music traditions and Western popular music practices to the development of Äijö. The data used for this research consists mainly of public media texts representing different stages of the production, distribution and consumption of Äijö
