Live footage for documentation purposes only. Despite (lack of) audio recording quality and substandard projection setup, this should give you some idea of where I’m currently going.

Live in Helsinki 2013/01/25 [part 1/5]

After a three year break from live performances, I will return to the stage in 2013. Further dates to be announced later.

Raison d’Être, Grunt & Niko Skorpio 25.1.2013 Helsinki, Club Prkl

Peter Anderssonin luotsaama Raison d’Être saapuu 25.1. esiintymään Helsinkiin. Raison d’Être on dark ambientin arvostetuimpia nimiä ja levyt ovat genren merkkiteoksia. Anderssonin luomassa musiikissa yhdistyvät niin teolliset kuin orgaanisetkin äänimaailmat, jotka hyödyntävät mitä moninaisempia lähteitä aina gregoriaanisesta kuorolaulusta minimalistisiin drone-tunnelmiin.

Ennen Raison d’Êtrea lavalla nähdään power electronic/noise veteraani GRUNT ja pitkän linjan elektronisen ja experimentaalisen musiikin vaikuttaja NIKO SKORPIO.

Raison d’Être (SE)
Grunt (FI)

RE_V — the fifth video for the RE Project, by Niko Skorpio

From now on, my music is available in instant downloads and physical objects (fancy term for CDs and vinyl) here:

music.nikoskorpio.net

(Powered by Bandcamp, also nikoskorpio.bandcamp.com if DNS fails us)

This includes most of the releases from the last 15+ years. I’ve added some bonus tracks wherever available. Some stuff is not up yet, but missing links will surface once we have the time… same goes for selected other projects I am or have been involved in.

What’s more, brand new sounds are on the way, admittedly slowly but rather surely.

Been busy (among other things) reorganising the archive vault lately. Yes, we have an actual vault; it holds material from 20+ years of activity, mostly on optical media that alas haven’t always been tagged with enough details…

The most worthwhile aspect of this otherwise rather boring job is that you keep finding stuff you didn’t even remember existed. Quite a bit of interesting stuff keeps coming up, some of which is just incredible…!

But I digress. Wish I could hire someone to properly sort out everything. (This is NOT a job offer, sorry!)

Back to work.
