Jaakko Eino Kalevi

Jaakko Eino Kalevi is an electronic musician from Tiituspohja, Finland.

Born and raised in the central Finnish lakeland city of Jyväskylä, Jaakko’s musical journey began in the mid-’90s when, aged 11 or 12, he discovered the progressive metal of US rockers Dream Theater, whose riffs he and a pal would play on guitar. Hip-hop came next and Jaakko learned to make beats using Fruity Loops and a sampler. There followed passionate investigations into reggae, disco, techno and whatever else his friends or the internet happened to introduce to him.

After several EPs and a 2011 album called Modern Life, Jaakko signed to Weird World / Domino to release the Dreamzone EP.
