About Me


I'm just an average Joe guy with a great passion for music & culture. Easygoing and most of the time extremely silly. All of my life I have been disabled with mobility problems, but that never stopped me from doing anything! And it never will. Maybe I can set an example that one can do just about anything, if he/she isn't afraid of what's around the corner. Never let the system get you down!

Check out the latest Wahoo! Radio Show on Samurai.fm by Finland's top dj-collective, Wahoo! djs, ofcourse

My Interests

The fantastic art of music that flows straight from the heart & soul. Aside from that, good movies and all good things in life. Including following some sports and being a hi-techie.

Oh, and taking my love for music into consideration, I'm also a wannabe DJ and sort of fantasize about going into the music biz once I grow up. So my dear friends and musical soulmates all over the world, keep the not-so-pretty face in mind, just in case we might end up being silent partners someday. You don't need legs to spin them records, do you?

Thanks.

..

I'd like to meet:

As many good and smiling people in as I can in this life. People contributing to culture - especially rhythm music - in any way. Be it DJs, artists, producers, promoters or just regular consumers. And regular people who have something interesting to say. You, perhaps?

In case you want to write some fanmail to me telling what an awfully nice person I am, or send photos of you posing with me, or whatever, feel free to contact me at jeapublic(at)hotmail(dot)com . Thank You.

At this point I want to say it can be hard for me to keep track whom of my friends I have talked to or thanked already. That doesn't mean I'm a selfish, arrogant prick. So just in case, I want to thank each and every one of you.

For me, the key is not the quantity but quality of friends. So for you to be added I think you do have something special to give, although I may not have seen you or spoken to you ever before.
