Welcome to the 9th chapter of the Deep Electronics Showcase. A musical journey into the sound created by Vardenzenix. Coming from my hometown Den Helder he creates IDM with abstract textures with a atmospherical touch. Enjoy his very first podcast!!

Last year I started with some darker and abstract podcasts. This year I start again with these kind of sets and this podcast fits perfectly in the dark days to come!!

I'm a 33-year old pianist and self taught composer from Finland. Making music is a hobby  for me while by profession I'm a teacher. All tracks are made with FL Studio. If you need to ask anything, you can reach me through email: olli.lukkari@gmail.com

If you're interested, my blog can be found at:
https://gravitygoals.wordpress.com/ 

For my visual art/graphic design (and Finnish poetry):

Feel free to use my tracks in any projects free of charge - please do mention me in credits though.

I combine elements from electric and classical music in a cinematic way. One of my dreams is to have my music in a movie/video game!

- - 
What music means to me?

Besides being a source of joy (and a source of many other feelings), music for me is also a form a meditation and a tool for exploring myself and my own psyche. 

Sometimes I imagine myself as an explorer like  Magalhães, Marco Polo or Ibn Battuta, venturing in the unknown land of my psyche; music is the ship with which I sail through the sea of different emotions and thoughts. On  a music listening session I might jot down any new ideas that occupy my mind and use them in my writing or in my life later on. 

Or maybe I don't always jot down ideas - listening to music also brings me to present moment. And I love savoring that moment by just lying down eyes closed on my bed, often listening to music is close to a holy experience for me.

In the hard moments of my life, music has been a way of expressing my emotions when there have not been people around me or courage in me to talk through my feelings. Through music I can also express emotions in a way I could never with words. 

Through music I can keep myself in anchored to who I feel I really am - without music I fear I could lose this touch. Music can be a wordless world and as such, it's free from categories that words have attached to them.

“If a composer could say what he had to say in words he would not bother trying to say it in music.” -Gustav Mahler

- -

Other than music, I study special education and writing, hang out and volunteer in the entrepreneurship, arts and hippie circles. I  read a lot, write a lot and watch many (documentary) films.

At this moment Deep Electronics is temporally not accepting new sets and tracks. We are taking a break till the end of the year. We will be back in 2026.
