New James Reipas album Personal Trainer out on 9.5.2008. The album is released by Faerie Dragon Records!
Personal Trainer is a snapshot of the current James Reipas sound which is constantly evolving and diversifying through the bands many live gigs throughout Finland and beyond.
Ranging from synth folk music to synth rock and everything in between but always with a danceable edge, Personal Trainer provides a great album experience for DJs and home listeners alike.
Warning: THIS IS STILL NOT IN FASHION!
James Reipas is hailing from Helsinki, Finland and is a group of talented
young electronic musicians who could easily be considered as pioneers of
Finnish psychedelic dance music. The group consists of Kolmas Vasemmalta
(guitar, vocals), Oskari Olevainen (percussion, vocals), and Himasen Aki (trumpet). James Reipas' debut album "This Is Not In
Fashion" (DMTCD08) was released on the Australian experimental trance label
Demon Tea Recordings in 2001 and it received wide appraisal within the
trance scene and outside it as well. The second James Reipas album "Uwaga"
(FDCD06) was released in december 2005 by a Finnish label Freakdance Records.
James Reipas has an unique style of sound, combining both electro and
psychedelic dance music with recorded live instruments such as flamenco
guitars, live drums and percussion, etc. This is definitely not your average
soft synth music with boring presets, as the group uses mainly hardware
synthesizers and equipment to create their tracks, trusting on the good old
MIDI. James Reipas doesn't believe in genre limitations either and they are
not ashamed to send the same message to their listeners. They have been
performing extensively in Finland and their wild live performances have
gained tremendous popularity. In spring 2007 the trio toured Germany
and after that James Reipas has also played in Ukraine, Russia and Japan. The live sets of James Reipas are more based on improvisation and
free flow than sticking to the original structures of the songs.

Pradox vs Bassid ‘Exfoliator’ digital ep is out! :)
It is a fateful occurrence meeting a soulmate on life’s trip whose points of view, taste, and interests are so homogeneous to your own that words are unnecessary in process of creating and composing! The duet project of Pradox vs Bassid is an example of one of these chance encounters. Every track is a masterpiece guiding you through thought, travel, dream, and freakout through dance. Their sound is flawless and full of inspirational harmonies. Pradox vs Bassid’s music is one reason why Arkona Creation Music and Art Label has been created! This music is a true stimulus in keeping ourselves and other positive and full of joy!
1. JAMON... Imagine being in a funky ping-pong game of sounds in an animated battlefield. This pumping bass beats and intriguing background pads of whistling, flying, and shooting keep your body moving and your mood in curiously high spirits.
2. TRAMPOLINE... Is a progressive piece of musical cake filled with funky bass and combined with a variety of percussion elements to propel you slowly across the dance floor. As if on a magical train expelling colorful steam, we are transported to a fairy tale land full of funky characters.
3. UNLOCK... With instinctive synths and a progressive trance bass, this track is an intelligent blend of technique and style. The abysmal depth of tunes build up a ritualistic intensity which can easily guide one through the 5th dimension.
