LIVET:
B A R F U N K E L
Barfunkel fell in love with electronic music at an early age. As a child, his favorite band in the world was Duran Duran, . When house and techno first entered the airwaves, he fell in love again. Too young (and living in the countryside) to enter the clubs, the only way to hear this music was on the radio (as Internet was still in it's infancy). Staying up late at night, listening to Tapani Ripatti's radio show (which played all kinds of club music and beyond) had a huge influence. Over the years, Barfunkel has listened, collected and played records from about every possible subgenre of club and electronic music. From soul and funk to early house and techno, into drum & bass and beyond.
Barfunkel's first forays into production happened in the mid 90's, with free tracker software. Dissatisfied with the experience, he soon bought his first synthesizers and samplers, which immediately struck him as a perfect way to make music. Ever since, he's bought (and sold) a staggering amount of music-related gear, in an everlasting quest to find the perfect setup. Currently his setup is very minimal, consisting of just a sampler, two synthesizers and a small reverb unit. As they say, less is more, which is something of a mantra for Barfunkel, in his search for his inner Robert Hood.
Morphology is a Finnish electro duo, a collaboration of Matti Turunen and Michael Diekmann. The pair has gained international popularity since 2009 with their dark, melodic and skillfully produced electro funk. Turunen and Diekmann have been musically influenced by Detroit techno, electro, electronica, vintage synths and drum machines.
In addition to releasing two albums and several EPs and singles Morphology has filled the dance floors in the UK, Scotland, Denmark and Poland as well as the domestic ones. Known for their extremely skillful, soulfully emotional melodies the duo combines elements of techno such as acid and vibrant drums to traditional electro in their own signature style.
Aku Leinikki (aka Poly Sone) is a Helsinki based producer and DJ who is known for e.g. his affiliations with the underground electronic music organisation HYTKY. Lately Leinikki has stood out from the crowd with his impressive live performances which consist of drum machine, sampler and synthesizer based smooth, albeit rolling techno. On this exclusive gig he's performing with Helsinki based singer Karita Rytivaara (aka Kade).
Sleazemaster is a sleaze-producing unit of Kalle-M and TM Shuffle. Sleazemaster sounds deep, tracky, driving, dubby. Technohouse but not tech house. After a few years of pause, these overaged bastards are back in the studio and clubs.
Sleazemaster on Kalle-M:n ja TM Shufflen loantuotantoyksikkö. Sleazemaster kuulostaa syvältä, raitamaiselta, ajavalta ja dubahtavalta. Teknohousea mutta ei tech housea. Muutaman vuoden tauon jälkeen nämä yli-ikäiset paskiaispojat on takaisin studiossa ja klubeissa.

Syntetisaattoriorkesteri Galaksi on kahden musiikkiteknologian opiskelijan, Heikki Vastialan ja Peik Erholan yhtye. Orkesterin musiikki on pohjimmiltaan syntikkapoppia mutta kuultavissa on myös vaikutteita electrosta sekä muista elektronisen musiikin genreistä.
Idea synapoppibändistä syntyi Virroilla talvella 2011, kun pojat paikallisesta pubista tultuaan jammailivat syntetisaattoreilla Erholan luona. Ajatus on ollut alusta lähtien tehdä hauskaa, rehellistä ja reipasta musiikkia, jota hyvä maku ei turhaan rajoita. Syntetisaattoriorkesteri Galaksi on myös tapa ilmaista musiikillisia ideoita, joita diipimmissä projekteissa ei syystä tai toisesta tulisi käytettyä.
Galaksin kappaleet on tehty enimmäkseen analogisilla syntetisaattoreilla ja rumpukoneilla. Nämä laitteet ja niiden tuottamat äänet ovatkin orkesterin tärkein inspiraation lähde. Nimensä mukaisesti Syntetisaattoriorkesteri tuo myös keikoilleen kattavan arsenaalin elektroniikkaa. Itseasiassa niin paljon kun Vastialan Fiiattiin vaan mahtuu.
Syntetisaattoriorkesteri Galaksin debyyttilevy, 12-tuumainen ”Pimeää Energiaa EP” julkaistiin toukokuussa 2013. Hyvin varusteltujen levykauppojen ohella intergalaktisen kopiosi voit halutessasi poistaa vaikkapa suoraan jätkiltä keikalta.

Janne Liimatainen and Jarko Hedenius, two brothers from Helsinki, Finland, began creating music with computers in 1992. Within a few years, the computers gave way to the raw and primitive world of analogue gear. When some experimental, self-made sound-sustaining structures were added, the music began to evolve into a more unexpected and exploratory direction and vÄäristymä was born. The music was created without synchronization, without any kind of metronomic coordination, and recorded exclusively in one take. During the group’s first ten years, a lot of music was made but never published. The archived songs had to wait for the last few years when vÄäristymä started to use their archives to produce music videos with the same uncompromising spirit with which the music was originally created. Today, vÄäristymä's works can be heard and seen on many different labels.
