Influences
Produced by Kerkko Koskinen. Recorded at YLE M1 Studios. Recorded and mixed by Miika Huttunen.

This recording was made at night in the studios of the Helsinki broadcasting station in a most informal atmosphere.
RT030 "Othello"
The Five Corners Quintet plays the music of Kerkko Koskinen
Format: 10" vinyl
The Five Corners Quintet and composer Kerkko Koskinen (see "Agatha", RTCD06) recently got together to produce the score of "Othello", a hit Shakespeare play at the Finnish National Theatre in Helsinki. Ricky-Tick will release an exclusive 10" vinyl of selected tracks that were recorded for the play.
The "Othello" ten-inch will navigate along the signposts set by the wealth of historically relevant soundtrack jazz around, materialising itself as high-octane 21st century dancefloor jazz with a distinct old school library/soundtrack flava. The release is strictly limited to 1000 copies.
