(\(\(\ HKI BASS 6.12 La Suomen Itsenäisyyspäivän Kunniaksi: Plutonium74 & LBJ LIVE /)/)/)
Live Bands:
((( PLUTONIUN 74 )))
Plutonium 74 is a band comprising a varying number of young players with very diversified musical interests. Their skillful blend of styles is a bit like a showcase of the musical movement that has been bubbling under the mainstream rock scene in Finland and especially Helsinki for the past few years. The music integrates folk, reggae, dub, hip-hop, funk and a bit of jazz with strong tunes and a disctinct sense of Finnish melancholic rock

LBJ - Lazy Bones Jones
21 year old producer and DJ Jonas Verwijnen (aka LBJ) has been involved in music since childhood. Starting his musical career by playing in several Helsinki based alternative bands and becoming interested in producing electronic music, Jonas's solo project - LBJ began in '98 influenced by many dance pioneers of that time from The Chemical Brothers and Fatboy Slim to labels such as Warp, TCR and of course Botchit.
LBJ's style is a unique mix of live instruments, Finnish vocals, powerful beats and dub breaks, and awesome atmospherics, all combing into a new sound that is refreshingly different from the current London breaks sound.
In the issue 33 of iDJ magazine is an interview with Jonas under the topic "Rising stars of breakbeat".
Jonas is also involved in "The Children Of Dub" (together with DJ Nick Fury), an organization hosting parties and pushing the sound of breakbeat in Finland. He has so far released tracks on Fraction Recordings in Finland and now-seminal breaks label Botchit & Scarper.
