Hmmm, I guess this writer hasn’t heard of Giorgio Moroder, Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode, Human League…..

This looks like being the most interesting festival of the summer in Europe. It’s on the weekend of August 17th in Helsinki. It’s a pity that I can’t make it. Artists on the bill include The Five Corners Quintet, Bebel Gilberto and the Australian band, Architecture in Helsinki.

Quintessence – 5am

It’s been a hell of a long time since I have really loved a CD until this last week. I picked up a CD by a Finnish new jazz group called Quintessence called 5am and from the first listen, the dreamy sounds and lyrics have had me hooked since. I experienced a similar reaction to the first and only album by Nuspirit Helsinki which I played most of late 2002 – early 2003. What is in the water in Helsinki that produces such beautiful and original sounds?
