Paul van Dyk 2003 Live @ Unionhalle Frankfurt, Germany

I was invited to play a four set of 90s trance, techno and progressive to legendary VUM open air party in Helsinki. The open air event takes place at Ääniwalli which is the #1 electronic music venue in Finland. Set goes from deeper UK progressive sounds to original German underground trance & techno and ends with late 90s uplifting sound of Dutch trance. This was a really special party to play. Thank you very much Lil Tony, Ääniwalli crew and everybody on the dancefloor for the good vibes <3

Armin van Buuren -  Live @ Armin Solo, Club Eau, Den Haag, The Netherlands 26.10.2002

Celebrating this Saturdays 25th anniversary event of Finnish event and DJ booking agency Misc by uploading a very special house mix of mine I did for our weekly night JACK back in 2004. Heavily inspired by my trips to Berlin at that time. Tune in!

Orkidea - JACK Mix Vol 1 (2004)

My live set from the opening night of Trance Bar at Post Bar in Helsinki. This represent well what I want to showcase musically in these nights: wide range of trance from deep and progressive to driving and uplifting and from the newest promos to some timeless gems. 

What a night the opening was! Packed house with over 500 people, great and varied set of artists and their versions of "trance". Next event on Easter Thursday 17.04.2025 with myself, MFM of Below0, Joni DJ from Post Bar and Cool DJ Pinball Heikki from Skorpioni. So happy that there is a regular trance night in Helsinki again <3

One of Scandinavia's leading DJs, producer, promoter, head of music at YleX, father and a music lover. 

Bookings: paula@silverlining.agency

Orkidea has been one of Scandinavia’s leading DJs since the early 90s. He is best known for his unique blend of trance and progressive: credible and firmly rooted in the underground origins of trance. His music has been supported by a wide variety of DJs from the ultimate taste makers such as Pete Tong and Sasha to stadium filling titans Armin van Buuren and Tiesto. All artists that he has enjoyed sharing the stage with too.

Tapio Hakanen aka Orkidea has released four full length albums for Black Hole, AVA and Universal Music. He is best known for classics such as Unity, YearZero and Nana and timeless remixes of Way Out West’s Killa, Aalto’s Rush and Tiesto’s Flight 643. Lately he has been one of the key creative forces in Solarstone’s Pure Trance movement and has had the pleasure of mixing the first compilation, releasing on the label and performing at their high profile events around the globe. Orkidea is also a member of the critically acclaimed VII DJ collective.

Throughout his career, Orkidea has been voted seven times as #1 DJ in Finland and two times the most popular DJ in Scandinavia and made it to the DJ Mag Top 200 and Tranceaddict Top 100 lists. He has had 32 Beatport Top 100 tracks, one iTunes #1 album, a Finnish singles chart #1 and a Beatport Trance #1 single under his belt alongside over 30 million plays in YouTube, SoundCloud and Spotify.

Since his first gigs at illegal squat house underground raves in 1992, Orkidea has played over 2000 gigs around the world at legendary venues such as Ministry of Sound in London, Cafe del Mar in Ibiza, Tresor in Berlin, Pacha in Buenos Aires and Avalon in Los Angeles, as well as some of world’s most prestigious events including Dreamstate USA, Luminosity, Transmission and Amsterdam ADE.

Between his peers, he is known as being driven by his constant need to evolve and create. Something he fulfills by uniting, supporting and inspiring the people and movements he is passionate about. Dedication to the scene and ethos of “Forward Forever, Backwards Never” has kept Orkidea moving and progressing for over 25 years and it’s still what keeps him as relevant and credible as ever.
