So, how is life treating you in Finland now?

Life’s good, way better here than it was in Sweden to be honest. People are easier to talk to and deal with in general. Things are good with the lady, working pretty hard though, but it’s worth it. Trying to make time for music as much as I can and for other creative things. How’s things in old Nippon?

I’ll ask the questions here buddy.

Hahaha, ohh, the interview started already?

Yes mate! How does the Finland scene differ from Sweden?

The Finnish Psy scene VS the Swedish Psy scene used to be like night and day and still, most of the time, it is. Finnish Psy is usually more experimental, groovy and fun while Swedish Psy is a bit more “under control” for lack of a better description.

Your new EP has a forest vibe to it. Is that influenced by what you’ve been experiencing in Finland?

Not that I know of. I think I´ve always had a bit of a forest vibe to my music. It just comes naturally for me and I love making those big story telling soundscapes to go with it.

Have you been doing regular gigs now that the whole Covid disaster is settling down a bit?

I´ve been getting more frequent gigs since I moved to Finland and Covid chilling the fuck out sure helped as well and hoping for even more gigs in the future, now with all the fresh releases.

Final question, will Bottas ever win a championship?

That’s gonna be a tough one to get, but he did good in qualifying and was pretty positive about the car’s pace. Maybe if the car and Bottas can hold it together next year, because I want to see him race and beat Hamilton fair and square, not having to hold back.

He`s such a gentleman and has never shown any bad vibes towards other racers on the circuit. It would be great to see him on the podium again.

Nice chatting with you Eki. Best of luck with this new release and hope to see you on stage soon.
