Biatch Corp Presents Jussi-Pekka (Frozen North Recordings - Finland)

Friday, February 1, 10:00 - Late
Bar 13 - 35 East 13th St, New York (Corner of university pl and E13th St)



Hailing from the Frozen North, with the highest amount of mobile phones and internet connections per head, where saunas, reindeer and keskikesä rule your life, where in dark days it seems like kind of a logical conclusion to lock yourself away in the studio ? this is the world of our favourite Finn Jussi-Pekka.

Jussi-Pekka is an artist in the truest sense of the word. And that artistic way of thinking can be experienced, if you ever happen to hear any of his deep, funky and soulful DJ-sets, influenced by a mixture of sounds like Basic Channel, Kompakt, Aphex Twin, Rising High and for sure by the complete decade of the 90's, in which Jussi-Pekka became a young man. But it´s not only the DJ in him. His profiling production face also perfectly underlines his musical character. Combining Detroit techno, groovy beats and acid elements, he is forming his unique cool & crispy Jussi-Pekka sound. The sound of the Frozen North. Mr. Parikka manages the crossover between house and techno as only a very few others do, with a subliminal sureness to receive support from a crossfire of DJs from different electronic niches, including the likes of Hawtin, Bug, Villalobos, Garnier, James Holden, Electric Indigo and Timo Maas.

So far, he can look back on an impressive release catalogue including productions for highly respected labels such as Poker Flat ( "Dancing Queen?), Morris/Audio ("Work it?), Slip´n´Slide, Audiomatique ("Let it go?), Out of Orbit ("Stereo interleaved?), Dessous, Latenightessentials, Vuo, Statra, Worldless ("The Snake?), Disco Inc. / Force Inc. and not to forget his very own imprint Frozen North Recordings, which he started in 2005 to give himself as well as other Finnish artists the chance to spread the more and more sought-after Scandinavian beats.

Also in the lineup, we are having the opportunity to share decks with an staple in Colombian Techno: Systematic Failure. Hailing from Medellin, he's part of the Discos Cocinados crew, one of the premier netlabels of our country.
