Info for Pekka Laine & The Enchanted

Space-psychedelia guitar fantasies from the Finnish hypnomena mastermind. Pekka Laine leads a double life. There is his day job as a journalist and maker of award-winning documentary series for radio and television. Then there's the other side of him, which usually only comes out at night: as a guitarist and DIY composer. As the driving force behind The Hypnomen, a band with cult status, Laine has been exploring the world of instrumental music since the 1990s. He has now reached an important milestone in his intrepid journeys from primitive noise art to the lofty spheres of soulful psychedelia. As a result of a series of unpredictable twists and turns, Pekka Laine's first solo album was born. The making of the album was a very personal journey. It is a declaration of love to the enchanted instrument known as the electric guitar, and to the cosmic echoes that bind it to 1960s space sounds, psychedelia, dub music and weird film soundtracks into a futuristic continuum.

Pekka Laine
is leading a double life. There is his daytime persona, a longstanding journalist and maker of award-winning documentary series for radio and television. Then there is the other side to him that comes out at night: the guitar player and DIY-composer. As a driving force of The Hypnomen, a band with a cult following, Laine has explored the world of instrumental music since the 1990s. In his intrepid journeys from primitive noise art to the spheres of soulful psychedelia, he has now reached one important milestone. As a result of a series of unpredictable twists and turns, Pekka Laine’s first solo album “The Enchanted Guitar of Pekka Laine” was born (due March 2021). The making of the album has been a highly personal journey. It is a declaration of his undying love of the enchanted instrument that is the electric guitar and the cosmic echoes that tie together the primal 1960s space sounds, psychedelia, dub music and weird film soundtracks to form one futuristic continuum.

This album contains no booklet.
