Sähkö catalogue number by hand refers to Ø's Röntgen/Kvanti EPs' recording sessions in the early 1990s. But still: This work's energy, processes and ideas easily compete with any minimal techno/house release. Few artist are able to apply the inner grammatics of their musical language as Mika Vainio does. His ultra precise and clean sound design became the synonym for the Sound of Sähkö. Where some tracks reveal musical roots of early electronic music of 1960s, others compare closely to late 1980s Chicago minimal acid music.
