It's a musical style that's a bit bogus if you ask me.

Doesn't Finntroll play Humppa metal?
That Smells like Humppa is fun. I wonder if people when dancing to this type of music look like little cute chickens going coocoo.
23 days of constant humppa surely requires lots of vodka.

This sounds like fun dude!
Seriously... a true engineer will just shut his fucking emotions up and mix any genre.. I learned I could do that while mixing the black metal project! Haha... well I'm still a fake engineer or simply no engineer at all but hey, atleast I can shut the music off in my head and just act on the sound!
Will you be drinking loads of booze? No wait, that wasn't meant as a question... it's an order. DRINK!

Old fart on this board
Although Eläkeläiset is the best there is in the Humppa-business, I would guess the music in question would be more like this:

Marcus, its not exactly humppa, its even worse. In Finland we have this term called "ruotsinlaivamusiikki", which basically means that there are two bands playing, the other one plays plague called "iskelmä" what we finns pretty have instead of country music, which means "choose between aids and ebola". It generally means pair dance music with really wide variety of music styles (but it does includes humppa among others). Pretty much the shit, but that my parents listen to. The other band is your average coverband that usually plays a lot of Abba and other "partymusic".
Can't, because of my work ethics I don't go around drinking in the working hours because I don't like the consequenses and after 16 hour days I would be so dead by the end of the workshift... My day starts at 12:00 when I wake up, then I go do the morning stuff and go the the mess to have breakfast etc and my workday starts at 12:45 when the dayband starts. Then it ends when the final show ends when the ship enters Turku harbour around 19:00 and if there is a bandchange (the bands sail for a week and change each monday) I don't have any free time during then, then the work continues at 20:00 when I have to go and turn the background music on and then the first show starts at 21:00 and then the programme ends at 02:30 and my workday ends at 02:45 and then I go to mess to eat, check facebook + email and then go to the shower and go to bed at around 4:00.
The most annoying thing is that most of the time I have to do so really minor things, like 2 minutes of work each 45 minutes, but they can't be automated (like opening and closing the curtains), which makes my days overly long. And those basically means that I can't be off work and for example go to bed or anywhere else except maybe bathroom.
But atleast I get paid pretty well and the staff discounted tax free stuff is supercheap (for example I bought a 20€ deodorant for like 7€
No need for those, 85dB volumelimit
