I am 49 years old pop singer from Finland. My life spins around music.

Rave Party

The song memorises the year of 2004 when I lived in London and sometimes visited at the rave clubs like Fridge in London.
I was memorising London journey and thats why I wanted to wrote it.
It was a cool venue from London. Fridge nightclub.

My songs usually get to release point quite soon. One day or two days. I dont waste time..
Melody comes always first and lyrics is the latest things which happens.

Lyrics tell that we must enjoy the moment now.

It tells about raving culture.
Story is both fictional and non ficitional.
There are no hidden meanings or signs.

Every listener can feel his own way how theiy understand the song.
Melodies are always difficult. I just follow the chord line.
Im not very professional composer so this style is best for me.
Seal, George Michael some of the guys to mention. Finnish long term composer Jonne Purple Motion Valtonen has been my composer idol since my childhood. We also made The Dance Of The Northern Lights together. Jonne as composer. I also respect Tuomas Pitkanen with whom we have made some songs. There is no partically special way song has been created. I just wrote it the best way I could.

I made Rave Party song by myself .I recorded it at my home. It\s expensive to record it at studios. Nowadays everybody does their stuff at the tiny home studios.
Vocal melodies are always challencing. I have taken online courses from Saara Aalto and hope to learn to create better melodies.

I didnt promote it much and people didnt listen it much either.

I loved subject and wanted to release it anyway. In this business one must accept the fact that no all succeed or make it big.Song was just a single song. I didnt get any feedback this time.

Song didnt succeed but its ok to me.

I don t play it live.
At the moment I dont make gigs live. There are other guys in the business who dont make gigs either.

Songs usually change when played live.Some parts always disappear.

Sorry, it sounds boring but not any special in this song.
I hope people can dance this song and dj\s play song much.
I just simply hope people like that song.
