Tie ja vaeltaja deluxe fractal vomit edition

OK, here’s finally the remastered tracks from Tie ja vaeltaja, I put it up on Jamendo first, and it will eventually be available here too. The reason I put that up on Jamendo was that I think that they used to have a FLAC download option, but it seems that does not exist anymore :/

There’s some little surprises with some of the tracks, but basically they are the same tracks than on the original music disc, just mastered to sound better on sound systems.

In other not-so-recent news: the Atla Batla party in April was great! Sorry no pix, I don’t have an internet connection and just don’t want to spend that much time in the net. It’s evil 😛
Anyway, also no gigs this summer, I’m working a bit (leadin kids’ environmental summer camps) and also trying to work on the new album, which is about halfway done, and should be out in the winter. I’m also looking for a publisher for that one, so labels are free to contact me with insane offers of money 😉

There might be one very special party with my favourite party organisers, but more about that later…

Pictures from this summer’s parties!

OK, Space of Joy went fine, the set was one of my best, at 11 am with at least 30 degrees in the shadow, and people just still going wild!

So thank you for the organisers, all the party people, and especially all who took care of me when the sickness hit  me 😛 Phew, that was rough, but then again, I think almost everybody were sick at one point or another…

I have uploaded the pictures, and also the pix from the BK Family 6 years festival and the 6th Sun festival… In the usual place!

Next coming up the Moondrops party near Jerusalem, with Afgin, whee 😀 So all oldschool lovers, be there!

There might be a festival in Russia in the beginning of September, I saw myself already on the lineup, but the organisers haven’t really contacted me yet. I’ll try to be there, but it’s going to be tricky for several practical reasons… :/

Other than that, I finally seem to have some money saved up so I might be able to buy headphones and continue writing music 🙂 Yai! I’m continuing in my school for the next year, but I hope to do more music this coming winter… And also there is coming up the comp with some exciting tracks from me  & several friends around the globe 😉 Stay tuned, I’ll try to fix that one up after I come from Israel and get the moving to my new apartment (again….) done.

Oh and I put up some video at Youtube too… Looks crappy, I’m adding the original one to my gallery soon…

Back home finally & Space of Joy 2007

So the planned three day trip was extended into two weeks, and I ended up on the 6th Sun festival for the summer solstice. It was a really magical and beautiful gathering, and I can just say thank you to the organisers who made it all possible and did such a lot of work to make it all happen.
The solstice night with all the fires, mist and just fantastic people was really special!

I hope to have pix soon online from both the parties…

!Israel date updated again!

I am playing at the Space of Joy festival in Ukraine, happening between 25.7. and 6.8.! Wow, cool, I love the Ukrainan partypeople, and the Crimean peninsula is sure beautifu 🙂

There is also an outdoor party in Israel near Jerusalem on 17.8. It probably won’t be publicly widely announced, so ask around, as usual 😉 I’m also staying for a few weeks, so if somebody wants to book me for another party, now is a prime time to save a lot on the flight prices 😉 (I think it would be fair to share them between organisers?)

So, bakke home!

Phew, what a trip! Thank you for everybody who made it worth it and such a great experience 🙂

Photos from the party are UP!

Also as an afterthought, some reading about the inhumane situation in the Israeli occupied territories, courtesy of Amnesty International: Israel and The Occupied Territories – Road to Nowhere
Worth reading even if you are a resident, remember that the IDF and your goverment are constantly LYING about the situation to you, and the rest of the world!

I will be playing near Moscow on the 14th & also 30th of April. Ask around 🙂 It will be fantastic!

That’s all. I want some cake & tea now 😛 CYA!

Israel comings & goings

Yo!

The Amanita party was fantastic, thanks for all the beautiful people who made the party so good! Pictures will be up after I’ll get back to Finland… Meanwhile, check out the afterglow on Isratrance.

There’s an one hour show of music & talk about AVP on 106FM next sunday, 20:00 (Israeli time). Also available on cable on channels 71 (Yes) and 321 (Hot). Foreiginers can catch the show on Internet here, I believe.

So, until next time (which might come sooner than you think!): rokk on & keep it pure!

(Oh, and upcoming parties: Russia, Sweden, Belgium… Keep tunered!)

Hiyai all!

Just some short update on what’s going on:

There’s going to be a party on the 9th of March near Jerusalem, so ask around & be there 😉 It’s great to meet everybody again.

Also sorry for all those who I have had to turn back about gigs lately, I am really elbow deep with all my craft projects, so there’s not so much time to travel. I really want to all these things now that I have the perfect chance 🙂
But hopefully in the summer I have more time, and I’m able to do all the proposed gigs! Plans include already Sweden, Russia, Belgium… Keep tuned!
Also because of these other things, there has not been so much time to do music… But there’s things cooking. There might be some small EP in the spring, and a proper album in one year or so. But have no fear, I’m very motivated, there’s just not time for everything at once.

There’s also a new Myspace page, it’s another easy way to contact me, or just listen to some tunes at your working place  with that cool flash player 🙂 And also links to some other great artists on Myspace…

Suomen väelle tiedoksi, että soittelen 28.2. ystävieni vaalibileissä Wäiskissä. Tervetuloa sinne vain kaikki!
