Heart Of Spylyhp

With the recent passing of Mika Vainio, we share an early live recording from him with Panasonic (later known as Pan Sonic), the experimental group that he co-founded. The Finnish pioneer was an inspiration to many electronic producers and also produced solo material under his own name as well as Ø and Philus, amongst others. Jeff Waye invited Panasonic to play at a night in Montreal in 1996 and shares this story about the recording;
"Back in the early 90's myself and Linus Booth had started a record label, Discreet/Indiscreet Records. To launch one our releases by David Kristian we decided we needed one of our favourite groups Panasonic to come headline. With zero idea of how to throw an event, we somehow got two Finns and a bunch of gear over the border and set up at a closed down rap club (which fortunately hadn't had the PA stripped out). The power of being naive made for a great show. Afterwards went back to our place and listened to dub records with Mika, Ilpo, and Tommi Grunlond until sun came up and followed Pan Sonic right through their career from that point. Upon learning of Mika Vainio's passing and the ensuing nostalgia I remembered I had a DAT tape of that night. So here it is... Panasonic's set from that night in all its glory."
