Set, rise... Some Midsummer night magic on Portra 800. Pentax MX with the SMC Pentax-M 100mm f/2.8. #juhannus #midsummer #finland #filmphotography #film

Finnish Midsummer still lifes & fragments 🇫🇮 ❤️ Pentax MX, Kodak Portra 800. #juhannus #midsummer #finland #filmphotography #film

Just a sun-drenched summer jam this time. No AI used. #newmusic #bandcamp

Absolutely blown away and speechless by this review from The Sun Lounge on the new album and mixtape. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to write this ♥ #ambient #vinyl #cassette

New all-vinyl mix to ease you into the weekend - 88 minutes of ambient, dubby electronica and jazz of the highest order. Also available on cassette! Btw, I shot the cloud pic out of a plane window (Superia X-Tra 400) using a Halina Paulette Electric :) #ambient #jazz #cassette #vinyl #film

Some beauty shots courtesy of @hauntedghostsounds.bsky.social of the new album "There Will Be Signs" ♥ #vinyl #ambient

It's my 43rd birthday and it just so happens I have a new album "There Will Be Signs" out on vinyl today via Special Species. Bandcamp/digi version to follow later in the week. Cheers! ☕️

Ever wondered what the ancient Finnish trad. instrument, the kantele sounds like? Here's a teaser from my new vinyl album "There Will Be Signs" where I play a 36-string kantele! Premiered via Inch By Inch Distribution. ❤️ The cover pic is shot on the discontinued Fuji Venus 800 film. #vinyl #film

Came across a few of my old drawings 😅 #drawing #sketch #illustration #artistonbluesky

Summer nights... ♥ Taken with the Zenzanon MC 150mm f3.5 on some expired Fuji NPH 400. #photography #filmphotography #film #bronica

Gotta love film... These photos were taken with my Pentax MX on one of my bike rides along the coast of Helsinki. I shot them on Fuji Pro 400H with the SMC Pentax-M 100mm f/2.8 lens. #photography #filmphotography #film #pentax #fujifilm #helsinki

Just found one of my old rap tapes! 😍 Straight-up, hi-res cassette rip - uploaded as-is in all its hissy, imperfect glory for a proper late 90s/early 2000s trip of peak-era hip hop 🔥 The photograph is taken on Tri-X 400 with a Pentax MX. #mixtape #cassette #hiphop #boombap #film #filmphotography

For this EP I went for a somewhat more 'live' sound than my more sample-chopped works. It's got my Rhodes electric piano all over the place and I even played the trumpet a bit here and there - something I should do more often I realize. Hope you like! #bandcampfriday #newmusic #rhodes

I took these with a Bronica ETRSi and the Zenzanon MC 150mm f3.5 lens on Ferrania P30 film. This camera-lens combo just feels right. 🔥 #photography #filmphotography #film #bronica #ferrania

Built a bookcase! #diy #books #woodworking

Finnish Midsummer night. Nothing beats the mood... One of my most memorable shooting sessions. Taken on Kodak Portra 800 with a Pentax MX and the SMC Pentax-M 100mm f/2.8. Here's a Midsummer soundtrack for you as well <3 vienosounds.bandcamp.com/album/saine-... #finland #midsummer #film #vinyl

This one was a lot of fun. Shot on Kodak Ultramax 400 with a Pentax MX. One of these was used as cover artwork for this EP: saine.bandcamp.com/album/cheris... #photography #filmphotography #film #music

In my younger years, I used to be really into basketball. My 90's school mornings would start with checking NBA scores. 🏀 I always loved the fuzzy look of old sports footage so a coupla years ago I did this music vid! Also on BC: saine.bandcamp.com/track/jump #nba #basketball #vintage #musicvideo

Here's a little something to get your weekend fired up! 🔥 #deephouse #disco #vinyl

Summer is finally here! It was a long, dark wait. Here are the last gloomy rain shots - next up, summer madness :) Took these with a Pentax MX. #photography #filmphotography #film #pentax

This sums up a lot of my thoughts on AI art - thanks @1lkka.bsky.social for pointing this article out to me. People seem to rely on their ability to tell art and machine made imitations apart - but, let a few years pass... And if we can't tell which is which anymore, won't that kinda mess us up?

The back sleeve of "For The Dreamers" vinyl LP. I took the aeroplane shot with a 1950's Vredeborch Felica on Kodak Ektar 100. @rickardelica.bsky.social did the design for this album, with gorgeous handwritten text. saine.bandcamp.com/album/for-th... #vinyl #filmphotography #film

This one was taken last summer, right before the storm. We were out boating with a 3-year-old... It was my first time with the "Fellini film" - Ferrania P30. HUGE contrast :) #photography #filmphotography #film #ferrania

Here's my white 1976 Rhodes electric piano, captured on Kodak Portra 400 film with a Zenzanon 150mm lens. I've got an ambient vinyl album coming up in six months or so, made in large part with this thing - can't wait to share more details with you... #vinyl #rhodes #filmphotography #film #portra

Some urban evening vibes along Helsinki's waterfront, shot on Kodak Portra film with a Pentax MX. #photography #filmphotography #film #portra #helsinki

Of all the deep house records I've released over the past 15 years, this one perhaps gained the most recognition. It was a special moment in time for me - the record sold out in 24 hours (that never happened again lol) - nowadays it's available digitally. #electronicmusic #deephouse #house #vinyl

Had a big Polaroid phase when "The Impossible Project" was bringing back the format. I even owned a mint Polaroid SLR 680. Peak moment was when one of my pics ended up on a vinyl label :) "Drifter EP" on Must Have is available on streaming services and Bandcamp. #deephouse #vinyl #film #polaroid

Like many, I like to shoot old (always old - new ones make me wanna poke my eyes out) cars on film - here's a couple of Porsche's and a Type 2 Camper with some bitchin' makeup. Tri-X 400 / Fujifilm Pro 400H. #filmphotography #film #classic #cars

Times are rough indeed... Might I guide you towards some healing music? Earthy, slo mo stuff I recorded with my old upright piano and an analogue synth. I did the nature recordings in the countryside on Finnish Midsummer night ❤️ Vinyl and digital available. #ambient #piano #synthesizer #vinyl

Always looking for flower arrangements in the wild - it's like they're waiting for you out there and no two pictures will ever turn out the same. These were shot on Fuji Velvia 50 slide film. #photography #filmphotography #film

This was just so good. #books

"Velvet" Shot this one on Kodak Ektar 100 film. Aimless nighttime bike rides on empty streets are possibly my favorite thing in the whole world. #photography #filmphotography #film

This one was a big deal for me: an actual music video we did with a professional crew a couple of years back. It was shot on expired 16mm film, the whole process was just so much fun. The dancer is Juuso Tervo 🕺 Credits are in the YouTube description. #film #analog #musicvideo

Film photography is a dear hobby of mine, I like to roam around my town and wait for a picture to find me. I've gotten a bit too lazy to share images though, I'll try to do it here occasionally. These were taken with a 645 Bronica system nearby where I live. #photography #filmphotography #film

Planning a new slow 'n moody mixtape! Vinyl only selection. Can't believe it's been 10 years since this one. Still super happy about all the warm comments it got over the years. Back then, I envisioned it as its own little universe and it's always nice to see people are coming back to it. #mixtape

Here's a beat tape I put together a few years ago. #hiphop #instrumental

It's a jungle out there.

New remix for Nodal Edge!

Thought it was kinda funny, seeing these side by side...

Utopian dream for a perfect streaming service. No ads no algos no 'wrapped' bs. It's free, tho no royalties either; just a UBI. I told you it was utopian :) By focusing on streaming cents, we're fixing a leaky boat with tape; the whole system only ever worked for the (very) select few. #spotify

I felt like highlighting an album of mine, as I always thought this one turned out quite nice - "For The Dreamers" from 2017 on Omena Records. For the vinyl heads, you may still be able to find a copy on Discogs. If you prefer digital, Bandcamp's got you covered! #electronicmusic #vinyl

Sunday fave... ♥ #vinyl

On AI art. It's not about whether it can replace 𝘢𝘳𝘵 (by definition it cannot; machine calculus≠art) but whether it can replace 𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘴. 2 yrs after Will Smith’s noodles, casual glancers are struggling to see/hear the difference, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰. Factor in the incoming AI flood? #AI #Suno

Still, on the introductory vibe, here's a "10 influential tracks" feature and an interview on Bolting Bits from two years ago. On my influences, working philosophy - and my background if someone out there is interested :)

Music video for "Étude" off my album "Ceramics" available on vinyl and digital on Omena Records. The synthesizer I used for this is the Korg Polysix and @rickardelica.bsky.social did the magnificent video - no AI. #musicvideo #electronicmusic #synthesizer #vinyl

I figured what better way to introduce myself than to share this tribute mix from a few weeks ago by Platzdasch 🙏 ❤️ Over the years I've worked on quite a bit of different styles - presented here is 2,5 hours on the deep house tip (free download) - hope u like! #electronicmusic #deephouse #mixtape
