Adams

A new club in Helsinki called Adams will open its doors this week. There's a pre-party with Efdemin on Thurdsay and the official opening will be held on Friday. On Saturday, Tuomas Toivonen does his Glass House live set and Martti from Renaissance Man will be playing records with me. Also, take a listen to the first chapter of the Utopia mix series that I recorded.

Fummer & Lauri Soini @ Nolla

During the autumn and winter we've played a couple of all-night sets with Lauri at Nolla. It's been a blast and we are back at it this Saturday – like before, we'll focus on techno, spin back 2 back all night and won't hurry the tempo too much.

Wild Combo keeps on rocking steady every month at Siltanen as well, thanks to everyone who has been coming down! There's some new things planned for the spring too... stay tuned.

Todd Terje at Nolla

Another memorable night to be expected in a few days – Todd Terje is coming back to Helsinki. This time I asked him to tell about five of his current favourite tracks for Nolla's blog. I recommend to come early (and it's free entry before 11 PM)!

Prins Thomas at YK

One of the modern disco greats is back in Helsinki this Friday. Last time, about two years ago, Prins Thomas played the whole night by himself and did a terrific job – this time it's Lil Tony and yours truly doing the warm-up. Essential stuff.

Back in Turku!

Turku people heads up! This Saturday I'm playing at Sheikki Sheikki which happens at Klubi. The usual suspect Hedon and the Sheikki Sheikki residents are in the house as well – we had a blast at Turku Modern in July and it looks like it's gonna be awesome once again.

Dirk in town

Highly recommended Saturday action: Dirk De Ruyck, the guy known for the labels Abracada, Eskimo Recordings and Mindless Boogie is in Helsinki. As usual, there's an interview on Nolla's site.

A busy weekend ahead

I'm heading up north to Oulu on Friday, so come to 45 Special if you happen to be in town! It's going to be a busy weekend in Helsinki too – Todd Terje is playing at YK on Friday and Tensnake is doing a live set there on Saturday. I'm also looking forward to hear Bariş K from Istanbul, who will play at Nolla on Saturday. Here's my interview with him.

Dan Lissvik at Nolla

We're having a special dj guest at Nolla this weekend – the ingenious producer Dan Lissvik from Gothenburg. I did a short interview with the man from Studio, check it out on Nolla's site. See you on Saturday!
