First things first: FANU stuff - that'd be jungle and downtempo.
I've released my shizzle on Subtitles, Commercial Suicide, Offshore, Breakin', Warm Communications, Subtle Audio, Thermal, Forestry Service , LoCuts, Soothsayer, 13 Music, Pauze, Darkestral, and now I'm concentrating on running my own label, Lightless Recordings.
My official page is at www.fanumusic.com and I'm also on Myspace: www.myspace.com/fanubreaks / www.myspace.com/lightlessrecordings. I'm a huge net nerd so you can find me on Facebook - just do a search for my name.

A complete Fanu discography can be checked out here on Virb, and there's info on forthcoming stuff as well.
Not all of the songs have soundclips, due to the limitation on the max amount of sounds you can upload on Virb, but you can find sounds of all Fanu stuff - released and forthcoming - on my website (link above).

Lightless Recordings is the record label that I run. It was set up by me and St Holdings to promote quality beats and proper fat drum and bass by myself as well as some other quality artists who deserve to get their beats out there.
We've put out three plates and an album so far. The next things will come from Martsman vs Bad Matter and Cycom.
You can check the planned release schedule as well as sounds of both released and forthcoming releases on the Lightless section of the Fanu website here (click me!).

I also DJ internationally, and it's pretty much what pays my bills at the moment. I love my job to bits.
So far, I've been playing in England, Hungary, Germany, Holland, Poland, Belgium, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Sweden, Austria, Russia, Ukraine, Bulgaria, The United States, as well as my homeland, Finland.
Next stops: Italy, Austria, Slovakia, Russia, Finland, Belgium, USA.

Music is my life. Seriously - I don't know what the heck I'd be doing if it wasn't for music.
Not a day goes by without me engaging in a session of sampling stuff, making beats, playing a few records, listening to my fave shit, etc etc.
I've always been very enthusiastic about making music. In a way I'm a grumpy junglist for whom the crap dnb has always served as fuel for my fire. Sometimes I like to say what I think about music or people and how I feel - without making it unnecessarily dirty - and some people can't take it. Those people should grow a thicker skin.

In life - and in business - I consider mutual respect one of the most important things in human interaction.
Don't try to work with me if you can't do it 100%. Don't give me empty promises or try to treat me wrong or I won't work with you at all. And don't try to fuck me over, haggle, or stab me in the back when it comes to doing business with me: you won't win.

Apart from music stuff, I love cruising around on my skateboard, busting a few flips and ollies every now and then, making music (o rly ya rly I said that again), my wonderful friends, green tea, a caffeine rush from coffee when I'm doing some good beats (those are the only drugs I do), traveling (it's mostly for gigs but I love it all the way!), meeting cool people, people who are passionately into something and devote themselves to their trade, humor n cracking cheap jokes (not a day goes by without those), Khoma art (www.khomatech.com), drums, bass, music people who know how to run tings, honest people, summer, autumn, lightlessness, and many other things.

Keep doing your own thing!
