About Me

Hi, my name is Timo. Some of you might know me as a guitar player of ex-Stratovarius. Currently I am putting together a band called REVOLUTION RENAISSANCE. Anyways I am a musician and a human being. I think a lot. I am always interested in making new friends and getting to know interesting, thoughtful people. I am also a music producer and a co-owner of Helsinki based state of the art recording studio Sonic Pump. I have my own production company Goldenworks. I am intersted in bands, all kinds of music, not only metal and rock, and singer songwriters. Being in the business for 20 years I have good contacts, so send me mail and tell me about yourself.If you get me interested, I might be able to help you. [email protected] is the address. I am also available for producing and mixing jobs. NOTICE: I DONT HAVE TIME TO REVIEW OR GIVE ADVICES TO YOU OR YOUR BAND. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests
