The legendary electronic synthesizer music group from Finland, Aaviko, return with a new mini-LP. Aavikko is a trio comprised of Tomi Kosonen, Tomi Leppänen, and Paul Staufenbiel. Between them, these three also share membership in Finnish groups Circle, K-X-P, Astro Can Caravan, and Pharaoh Overlord. This mini-LP contains electro-acoustic desert light-rock and pop music, also some jazz and so-called funky music, while also combining classical music's scales. Aavikko (meaning "the desert" in Finland's Suomi language) has existed since 1995. Leppänen's incredibly precise drumming combines with analog electronic sequences, and Kosonen and Staufenbiel's synthesizers form catchy sounds. Planet Fun-Fun also features Swedish singer Slobyn and Dr. Albania as a background singer. And for the first time in Aavikko, the electric guitar is also heard, from rising young talent Tero Holopainen. Recorded in STINK studio, and mixed by Ilari Larjosto.
