Found this today! Listen to the clips here. Awesome italodisco covers sang in finnish. Can’t wait until I get a hold of this.

I wonder who are the people behind this project. Earlier they have brought us the ubercool “Homokissapuisto” – “Mä olen vokoderi” which is cover of Gay Cat Park’s “I am a vocoder”.

Scotch Egg Karaoke

10:34 by dzei. Filed under: Uncategorized

Aww! Last night was something unbelieveable! My neck is sore for moshing too much. The audience was very receptive when considering the nature of scotch egg’s music. Well here is a clip where Scotch Egg summons people to the stage to sing karaoke! Can’t remember the song’s name they’re singing just now though, if somebody knows please let me know.

Game Boy Massacre! M-Klubi @ Cafe Tivoli 21.09.2007

Tomorrow all hell breaks loose!

Very special night in these latitudes. Personally I have seen Huoratron once (2004 QStock, Oulu) and it was very energetic, I just had to dance for entire time! He knows how to encourage audience. Game Boy madness! I heard that Huoratron’s debyt full lenght album is coming out this year, finally.

As anxious as I am about witnessing Huoratron again, DJ Scotch Egg is something you just don’t see here often, rocking with game boy also but with Gabba and Glitch flavour on it. Just watch the clip to see what is all about.

Unfortunately O Samuli A has cancelled but there are also our celebrities Desert Planet. Seen it many times but they are always good. I hope they have some new songs though.The whole event is part of AV-Mediaculture (University of Lapland) unit’s 15 year old birthday party. There is also a seminar “Äänen ulottuvuudet” (= Dimensions of sound) tomorrow at the university about videogame music and etc.

Jakke & Jokke – Naisen Haluan

03:48 by dzei. Filed under: uncategorized

The first actual post is about some rare finnish disco-rock coversong called ‘Naisen Haluan’ (= I want a woman) by Jakke & Jokke.
I found this song couple of years ago from the album ‘Hittiparaati 10′ (1979) which is a compilation of finnish pop songs. This ‘Hittiparaati 10′ was actually in a sleeve of ‘The best of Italo-Disco vol. 10′ which I found from local second-hand shop.

The song sounds kind of Prince and to be exact, he’s Jamie Starr pseudonym in sideproject called ‘The Time’.
Especially the vocals but the rest of track is much more heavier with guitars and stuff. The electric bass sounds good. It has a short synthsolo towards to the end but it leaves you demanding more of it.

Jakke & Jokke – Naisen Haluan 320 kb/sec

There aren’t much information about the performers Jakke & Jokke. Jokke is pseudonym for Jorma Seppälä and he has arranged couple of songs for eurovision contest in 1985. It seems that they did not make it to the main contest. It also appears that they have had some kind of connection with Danny and Kirka. Jokke has composed few songs for Kirka and been also singing in the background. They are musicians at the very least.

As I said at the beginning, ‘Naisen Haluan’ is actually a cover of Supercharge’s ‘I can see right through you’ from the album Bodyrhythm (Virgin 12118, 1979). Supercharge is kind of British disco-rock band on Virgin label in late 1970’s led by Robert John “Mutt” Lange.

Supercharge – I Can See Right Through You (320kbps 16mb)

The original song is much longer clocking over 6 minutes while the finnish cover is 3 minutes. The latter part of the song consists breaks and stuff, ready to be sampled and suitable for doing remake or edit or whatever. There exists 12″ and 7″ of ‘Naisen Haluan’ with catalog# Polarvox rps 130. If anybody has a spare copy, please send me e-mail. The Supercharge single is not that rare if you look into right places. But beware, some people ask over 50 pounds of it while others are satisfied with 5.
