feels liquid…Half of 2017 already passed. OK, I have been quite active so no problem there. By my calculation 24 new songs in progress as we speak: 10 Inertia, 9 SSTB and 5 Eeva.

Inertia, my real band 😉 with buddies Tomi Laaksonen, Janne Laine and Tipi Pulkkinen, has been busy recording all the new songs. We recorded the drums at our former practise room @ Katajanokka, additional recordings were made at home studios. I asked my pal Hannu Leiden to help me out, once again. We’ve basically mixed all the songs and are waiting for Tomi to produce the cover etc material.

SSTB ie. me and Teijo Tikkanen are in well into pre production of the second SSTB release. We whipped 9 of my songs into shape and boy are they varied: from the QOTSA influenced “Trials and Errors” via “Forever and a day” with it’s nod to Power Windows era Rush to NIN tinged “My Companion”.  Fun times are guaranteed when the two of us are working together! Early 2018 release…

Eeva aka Tiger Angle. Five of Eeva’s songs, sung in finnish this time around. With a solid duo of Lassi and Mikko on drums and bass respectively, I had a field day producing and arranging (and playing guitar and keys) with the talented miss Eeva. Late 2017 release.

Other activities:

• Released the Liquid Wolf “Second Wind, part 2”
• Mixed the second season of “Black Widows” + a few other things @ Cinepost.
• Mixed documentaries @ Kalevala.

Onwards, the rest of 2017 looks to be a busy one, quite a few mixes already lined up!
