“Lie down in debris” featured in Soundi magazine

by

I was just listening to Tina Jukarainen’s (Fullsteam Agency) talk at Mars Festival 2017. Literally, when she was talking about importance of Spotify playlists as a way to get discovered, I received a message that Unzyme’s “Lie down in debris” music video (and Spotify single) had been featured in Soundi magazine. As it happens, the song … Read more

Mind scan: Thomas Thanasi

by

I’m always interested in presenting new talent, so I decided to start a new series of artist interviews, called “Mind scan”. A promising young artist caught my attention at Budi Voogt‘s webinar. I thought it would be fun to do an interview with him. Tell us a bit about yourself – who are you, and how would … Read more

Song dissection: Trespassers

by

Trespassers is one of my more autobiographical songs. Sometimes it’s easy to write, if you just document what you’ve experienced. Musically Trespassers is from the lighter edge of the Unzyme spectrum – something that could be played on a plain piano. I quite like the solos in this song. The story, however, is the most interesting … Read more

The best band websites to mimic

by

Websites tend not to be a top priority anymore, which is a shame, because no social media profile can really do what a website does. A website is supposed to be the most reliable, coherent information source for your band. But that’s rarely the case. Band websites are more like social media link collections than … Read more

We’re going deeper underground. Or at least we’re trying to get permissions to shoot two music videos in two different mines. Suvi Liukkonen, the producer of the music videos, has started negotiations with First Quantum Minerals, a company that operates the Pyhäsalmi mine and Nordkalk Oy, which operates the Tytyri mine in Lohja. We’re also … Read more

First draft of the new music video

by

Sebastian Trzaska just sent me the first draft of our next music video. It will be very different from the other two we’ve released from the third album. We’re still working on a few alternative cuts, because the original idea, to show the events in chronological order, might’ve not been the best idea after all. … Read more

The key lines

by

I always write the music first, and then start working on the lyrics. For some reason, the original melody is so important to me, that I’m not willing to change it in order to write the lyrics more easily. I feel that if I replace the melody, the feeling of the song would lose something important. Relying … Read more

Slush Music is being organized for the first time, as a side event of Slush – one of Europe’s biggest startup events. Slush Music brings together technology startups and music entrepreneurs. This sounds like a very exciting mix, and is something that we at Unzyme try to do. These days it’s very hard to make … Read more

Song dissection: Covered clearance

by

Covered clearance is a very special song to me. I like to explore and photograph underground tunnels and abandoned places. These photos are very much present in the album booklet, especially on Override. When I was composing Brainforest, I came across this beautiful photo of a tunnel with a hole in the ceiling. A story started to emerge … Read more
