Guest spot with Italomatic at H0L0yard, Sunday 6.22.25, hottest day of the year, crunchy recording. Joining Frantz, italomatic resident Rok One and H0L0's Andrew Licata. Only my selections included here, everybody else was cut to avoid embarrassing myself due to their superior skills. 

Short opening/warm-up set, followed by longer set, followed by several 3 songs sections from tag-teaming with other DJs. That explains the breaks in the sets.

OLLI KOPONEN (sometimes stylized as OLLI [KOPONEN]) is a DJ from Helsinki, Finland, known for his eclectic taste in music, which is reflected in his dynamic DJing style.
Born in Cambridge, UK, Olli spent his early childhood traveling the world. His passion for music began at a young age, fueled by hours spent watching music videos on MTV and VIVA. Later, he found inspiration in the soundtracks of skateboarding movies, which eventually led him to explore the world of dance music.

At 17, Olli started DJing after taking a DJ course at a community center in Helsinki. By 18, he was regularly attending nightclubs as a dancer, and soon his passion evolved into a career. He began organizing parties at venues in downtown Helsinki, quickly earning opportunities to perform regularly at clubs and festivals.

Olli's versatility as a DJ is one of his trademarks. He can seamlessly craft sets spanning genres like soul, disco, funk, and Italo, as well as ambient, house, electro, and techno.

Over the years, he has performed at numerous gigs across Finland and internationally. He also consistently releases mixtapes and has been featured on several radio shows. From 2021 to 2024, he was known by the alias DJ Oltermann.

In 2021, Olli co-founded the record shop OK Sound Helsinki with Kris Goodin, where he also worked. Today, he focuses on music production as part of General Electrix, a duo with Santtu XL. Their debut release is scheduled for January 2025.
