Happy news. Yesterday at around 13:00 I got married to my long time girlfriend Melanie. With about 70 close friends and relatives we spent an amazing day and shared the intercultural closeness and happiness – and the music :) Thank you to everyone remembering our day and sending us your greetings.

From this day on my name is officially Juska Wendland. My old email addresses keep working and will be re-directed to the new ones, but if you want to be sure, you can always find the up-to-date contact information here.

Tracklist: I Love Kiksu 4th anniversary event

By UncategorizedNo Comments

I Love Kiksu was a very well organized and successful trance event – there aren’t too many of those these days. I was surprised how early the dance floor got crowded – I was expecting people to stay home longer after such a warm day, but it seems you can always trust trance fans ;)
Jokke started the night with 100% vinyl set, plenty of great oldish tracks and fresh releases. A great warmup from the guy who has been keeping the scene warm for god-knows-how-many years. It was great to get to play after him. After a couple of trys with pretty new tunes I decided to count on tracks with were a bit more familiar. Not surprisingly, a bit more technoish tracks like Boogie Nights and Surin remix didn’t go down too well, but I was happy of the reaction to the proggy and even houseish tracks like Mystify remix and Sweet Harmony re-make. It’s good to see that you don’t need 145bpm energy trance anymore in a trance event to push the spirit high and get the hands in the air. 127bpm and well fitting bassline will do just fine (Jaytech/Dinka, anyone? ;). DJ DNA finished the night well with his stage charisma and driving two hour trance set in a true I Love Kiksu stylé :)
Big thanks to Denis for the invitation and to Seppo and the whole crew for the great hosting. Below is the tracklist of the night.

Jaytech to Finland!

By Civilian life, UncategorizedNo Comments

Australian Jaytech is coming to Finland this autumn.

If I would need to mention my TOP3 nu-sound producers today, the list would definitely contain Jaytech. The young Australian wizard has just released his amazing debut album “Everything is OK” and has been named as Above&Beyond’s favourite warm-up DJ on their tours. His new tracks like Pepe’s Garden and Groove Nova and older like Genesis and Tomorrow as well as the joint productions with Matt Rowan are such a bliss to hear and play. His sound influences today’s progressive house and trance strongly (check his podcast) and I can guess this is just the start, according to his Inthemix interview.

Jaytech is currently touring all around the world and finally landing to Finland this October. It’s a moment not-to-miss.

DJ Orion – One Sunday

By UncategorizedNo Comments

One Sunday is the first chill-out production I’ve done. It’s a moody, melancholic piano-driven chill-out track to which I already (and shortly) referred earlier on the Konemetsä video post. However, the track wouldn’t have been anything like this without help from Joonas and Miika.

My brother Joonas is a music freak just like me, but his talents are on a jazz and choir leading side. He’s only 18 years old than me and has achieved already much more on his music career than many pros who have been 10 years more in the business. Joonas is responsible of all the keyboard magic of the track and I’m very very much looking forward to the future sessions with him.

The final polish + bass and piano sound tweaking props go to Miika Kuisma, whose uncompromised producer skills were irreplaceable. Thank you for your time, honesty, humbleness and all the good tips and tricks.

As said, the original version is now finished and it’s time for the remixes. I’m very happy to announce the remix kvintet, which includes some of today’s most promising and most interesting Finnish producers (not in any particular order): Syna/Deck Jagger, Sami Saari, Cid Inc from Mashtronic duo, Beetseekers and Miika Kuisma. I’m really looking forward to dance floor orientated and hooky remixes from the guys and I’m very very excited of the results. A large variety of Finnish electronic music at its best, so to say.

I’ll keep you updated of the news, but if you’re interested hearing the original version of One Sunday, check the video below or listen the Konemetsä 2008 chill-out set.

Electricity challenge

By UncategorizedNo Comments

We’re borrowing money from China to buy oil from the Persian Gulf to burn it in ways that destroy the planet. Every bit of that’s got to change. Today I challenge our nation to commit to producing 100 percent of our electricity from renewable energy and truly clean carbon-free sources within 10 years.

DJ Kaasi Tiistain Tanssi-illan biisivieraana

By UncategorizedNo Comments

Tiistain Tanssi-illassa 22.7.2008 biisivieraana Pohjois-Suomen kiistämätön ykkös-DJ Kaasi. Kalajoella menestyksekästä Sunburn-klubia pyörittävä miekkonen on tuonut pikkupaikkakunnan klubbaajien huulille ja Kalajoen Dyynistä puhutaan nykyisin jo Suomen Ibizana. Tanssi-illan Biisivieras-osuudessa selviää mitä kuuluu DJ Kaasin tähän kesään, pohjoisen klubikuvioihin ja keikkarintamalle ja kuulumisten lisäksi kuullaan herran valitsema biisi, joka on kirjaimellisesti varsinainen pommi.

Biisivieras Tiistain Tanssi-illassa joka toinen viikko. DJ Orionin tunnilla klo 21-22 esittäytyvät vieraat kuuluvat Suomen elektronisen musiikin artistien kärkikaartiin ja tuovat ohjelmaan oman musiikillisen antinsa esittelemällä valitsemansa biisin.

Tanssi-illan uutisosiossa Konemetsä-festivaalin promoottori Pete Gerkmanin puhelinhaastattelu huumeuutisoinnin jälkeen: Onko kaikki julkisuus hyvää julkisuutta? Millä mielin festivaalia jatketaan? Mistä johtuu väkivallan ja vahingontekojen vähäisyys konemusiikkitapahtumissa?
