pan sonic

Pan Sonic

(they were also called Panasonic before legal issues took away their A)
are two guys from Finland,

Mika Vainio and Ilpo Väisänen
who started out with long-term, low-frequency, high-decibel experiments
and organizing rave parties in the country where “hardly anything happens ever”.
The minimalistic music of Pan Sonic is composed
“from a forbidding array of pure tones, sinewaves, pulses, electronic squelches and ultrasonic waveforms,”
and a humorous attitude,
“skilfully arranged into an accessible rhythmic package”
mainly taken from the bowels of custom-built sinewave generators.

















Pan sonic's final live gigs took place in
Bios, Exploring Urban Culture, Athens, Greece
while there will be one final album on Blast First Petite in early 2010
Mika and Ilpo will continue with their own solo projects |
