Brainbashers: 2012 Tour @ Helsinki
Kovaydin Vastarinta loudly presents:
: 2012 Tour @ Helsinki
At Brainbashers events we play hard, fast-paced and sometimes also experimental underground electronic music, which challenges the present-day mainstream’s views of dance music. The present-day, that has forgotten the pulse of intensive tribal dancing that can be felt in ones entire organism. The concept however is not puritanically focused on dance music, the listening experience is also important. Boundaries crossing extreme subgenres of electronic music can be found in for example industrial, digital punk, drum’n’bass, techno, psytrance and avant-garde. The core of the action however has always been hardcore. The speciality of the events has been to offer a wide scale of different *core styles. Kovaydin Vastarinta tours Finland throughout the year 2012 spreading its Brainbashers concept and making people dance to distorted bassdrums.
Our fourth destination will be underground and situated somewhere in Helsinki.

Fedose [EE]
The call from a small industrial city of north eastern Estonia continues with a profound and intuitive choice for the core. The memory form reflected in djing is the main activity for over a decade. Mixing rhythm and stealth with infinite mathematical accuracy is the primary objective. Not obstructed by any movement the journey into sound began with a local radio station and self made tapes. Some time after got decks and a diverse vinyl collection. Playing at various local parties helped to find own style. Nowadays keep experimenting mixing different electronic styles concentrating on rhythmic aspect and exploring the lost worlds of vinyl.
