 Mika Vainio, currently based in Berlin, was one half of the minimal electronic duo Pan Sonic from Finland, (the other half was Ilpo Väisänen). Before starting Pan Sonic in the beginning of the 90's, Mika Vainio has played electronics and drums as part of the early Finnish industrial and noise scene. His solo works, under his own name and under aliases like Ø, are known for their analogue warmth and electronic harshness. Be it abstract drone works or minimal avant techno, Vainio is always creating unique, physical sounds. He has released on labels like editions Mego, Touch, Wavetrap and Sähkö and he has been producing among others with Alan Vega of Suicide, Keiji Haino, Chicks on Speed, John Duncan and Bruce Gilbert. Since 2009 Mika Vainio is contributing the music to Cindy van Acker's dance pieces, WWW.CIEGREFFE.ORG/ACCUEIL.PHP New Projects : MIKA VAINIO & FRANCK VIGROUX Performing @ Le Génerateur, Paris, France, festival Extension 2012, pt. 1 & pt. 2 http://youtu.be/oNGSXuGY6S0 WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=ZOVZUGKVQ6O More info on Franck Vigroux at: FRANCKVIGROUX.DAUTRESCORDES.COM MIKA VAINIO / KEVIN DRUMM / AXEL DÖRNER / LUCIO CAPECE Out now: "Venexia" (PAN 28) LP, PAN-ACT.COM/ Listen: SOUNDCLOUD.COM/PAN_RECS/MIKA-VAINIO-KEVIN-DRUMM-AXEL-D Please get in touch for conditions, tech rider and free dates.
