@ Rabbit Hole, Helsinki 10.2.2024

The past year has been really good to me. I've become ever more connected to the dewy-eyed, playful and dreamy interpretation of house that drifts you somewhere far away. Hearing these warm sounds being played amidst nature with wide-open spaces from desert in the middle of Nevada to gardens and beaches feels like coming home.

This is my Songbook of the past few months - hope these tunes take you to the most beautiful journey :)

Songbook

Estonia has undoubtedly become  one of our absolute favorite places to play. Was such a pleasure to experience the new 9/11 club on New Year, with its special atmosphere and fully vibing crowd. Getting such a real appreciative response from the people on the dance floor was an inspiration throughout the whole set. 

We feel like we managed to squeeze in a great variety of sound that was flowing naturally - deep, dubby, chunky, dreamy...just the way we like it! ;)

Enjoy, share and comment

Love,

Our Ihmelehto set from Slush After Party 2018 in Helsinki.  Me and @arto-lehtola had a lot of fun bringing our sound to the leading start-up event in Europe :)  

Ihmelehto, a Helsinki-based party collective. Imagine yourself riding an unicorn down an arctic mountain towards sunset, holding a flag which turns out to be a space blanket. Yeah, that’s pretty much it. Something real, something different, something weird. Always with passion and heart.

Ihmelehto @ Slush After Party 2018

"We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring 
Will be to arrive where we started 
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, unremembered gate 
When the last of earth left to discover 
Is that which was the beginning; 
At the source of the longest river 
The voice of the hidden waterfall
And the children in the apple-tree"

T.S. Eliot

Monkey Island 3 (Departure)

Know that feeling? Distant echoes turning louder and louder as you're getting closer to the site of action.
Entering the darkness, feeling the panel-beating bass, sensing the excitement. 

How I miss all that.

This is my soundtrack for the things that happen After Dark. Deep, dark, sinful grooves for the wee hours.

Still Moment

Hypnotic grooves, deep baselines and otherworldy soundscapes. Neilikkakissa has been crafting his sound for nearly two decades. Together with like-minded dreamers, he’s been running Ihmelehto (”Wonder Grove”) parties in Helsinki.
