Oletko tullut ajatelleeksi, että sinua ympäröivä maailma pursuaa arkisia asioita, jotka ovatkin oikeastaan aika ihmeellisiä? Aksu ja Jormis johdattavat sinut kiehtovan trivian maailmaan. Taattua kaverilaatua jo alakouluajoilta.


"...Skip Zone perform mid-tempo cosmic americana songs with some outstanding vocal harmonies and catchy melodies. Think Ryan Adams, think The Jayhawks, think early Wilco and think a little bit of American Beauty era Grateful Dead. The three vocalists provide a great dynamism to the songs, and instrumentally, the band hits the right notes with gentle electric pianos, harmonica solos and some inspired guitar parts that create very refined songs..."

"Jumalation! Mitä tekee debyyttialbumillaan helsinkiläinen Skip Zone? Huomiota herättävän määrän kantrifiiliksiä sisältävän levyn, joka on kauttaaltaan kuuntelukelpoinen. Ajoittain jopa mainio. Mayat olivat oikeassa, lopunajan merkit ovat käsillä."

A bit about me:

- I'm a professional crossword constructor (New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times, Games Magazine, Sterling Publishing). 

- I've been making tracks, beats, remixes on and off, for about 20 years. Although, I've only recently (within the last 2 years) started to produce tracks again. 

- I like all genres! Although I have a preference for techno and house. I am a (lapsed) classical musician, so I'm often interested in using "classical" samples in my music. 

- I like beats to be interesting! I'm always looking at ways to make a four-on-the-floor beat pattern, varied and more propulsive. 

Apologies for the variation in some of the sound-quality right now. I will make adjustments ASAP :)
