Rabia Sorda remix
We’ll start to work on a ruthless remix of a Rabia Sorda song in a few weeks. We don’t know when it will be released, and can’t reveal the song at this point, but will keep you informed!

The next single, Step Outside, from our upcoming album, Override, will be released this week! We’re eerily excited about this release. Ville Hoikkala has done a great job mixing the track, and it’s now on its way to our trusted mastering guru, Tarekith. Step outside will be released on YouTube, Spotify and SoundCloud.

This is a post from the perspective of me, Ville (the drum guy), on our two gigs in Synapsi with Hocico in August 2014. The diary includes lots of technical stuff, which might be out of the interest-range of many people – all the technical mumbojumbo is therefore written in italic. Unzyme played at Synapsi for the … Read more
Unzyme will conduct a very special experiment at SYNAPSI in Tampere and Helsinki. About four years ago we had just released our debut album, and got the chance to play at SYNAPSI. It was a very encouraging experience, and we still think of it as some kind of a milestone in our career. Now that … Read more
The next song to be released from Override is Step outside. We’re still working on the mix, but it will be out soon.
We like to make our experiments as spectacular as possible, and thus have invested quite a lot of time on lighting design. Every song in our live catalog has been enhanced with a light show. We try to underline the story of the song with a matching light sequence. It took quite a lot of … Read more
I’ve tried countless tricks while recording by myself. Often I thought that I was a bad singer, while it was actually about not hearing what I sung. I used to have to record a lot more to get the right takes, but with the combination of a proper headphone mix and using only one half … Read more
Vocal recording sessions tend to be rather long. After recording and going through the vocal takes countless times, you start to lose perspective. This is why breaks are essential in recording. My favorite quality test for recorded vocals is the (notorious) morning test. The idea is simple: first thing in the morning, listen to what … Read more
When recording vocals, it’s essential to actually hear what you’re singing. Recently I switched to a Scarlett 2i2 USB audio interface, and even though the monitoring audio quality is fine, I wasn’t able to get enough volume to my headphones while recording. I tried lowering the volume of all other tracks in Ableton Live, but … Read more
One of the early Unzyme songs. When I composed this song, I was really excited about the melody. I think I had gotten really close to my ideal of the perfect melody. I still like the song very much, but production-wise we’ve done a better job on many other songs. Especially now that we’re about … Read more
Unzyme will perform at Lumous Festival (Tampere, Finland) on July 4th. We had planned not to do any more experiments before the release of Override, but because this was such an interesting offer, we decided to take it. Hope to see you in Tampere! Lumous Festival on Facebook Lumous Festival website
After three years of incubation, it is time to launch the first single from our upcoming album Override. Check out the lyric video.
We are 99% done with the first single from our forthcoming album, Override. The song is called Relay, and it will be released first on YouTube and SoundCloud, and later on Spotify. This time around we felt comfortable enough to mix the song ourselves. Ville Hoikkala has done the mixing at Unzyme Laboratories. However, the song will … Read more
Three out of ten songs have now been recorded, and more will be recorded on a frantic pace. The mixing process of our second album has already started. No release date has been set yet, but it should not be too far anymore.
Another crossing was the first song I wrote for Unzyme. I had just bought new gear – a new microphone, external sound card, monitor headphones and a keyboard controller. Most of these devices have later been replaced by better gear, but I still have the instruments and use them occasionally. Anyway, being excited about the … Read more
While we’re busy working on our second album, Override, we are also negotiating with a couple of summer festivals about implementing Unzyme Experiments to their program. Two summer shows have already been announced, but there might be more. Our main goal, however, is to release the new album as quickly as possible. Our ambitions have … Read more
