Mostly people probably know my industrial or ambient or whatever sort of stuff, but in between 2015-2019 I also had this separate thing for harsh noise, nightmare drones, blown out amplifier music, power violence etc. It actually started as a solo power violence/grindcore thing, as my band members spent most of their time high and I recorded everything alone rather than wait for them. Then I went instantly into noise with it. I used to record on tape, make few recycled tapes and sell them at shows.Most of the stuff uses tape loops and guitar feedback, screaming, spoken word,  metal percussion, self-built instruments (amplified typewriters, etc), later stuff also features a downtuned kantele I found from the fleamarket. I was living close to railroad tracks and used to carry all kinds of junk home and build some instruments out of them too. Because there's quite a few albums I would highlight Hiljaisuutta Ei Ole (harsh noise, tapes, hypnotic drone psychedelia), Sold Out (blown out tape noise made on few excess tapes shorter length), Rustfucker (two live shows on tape) and Valkoinen Ratsu (guitar drone and feedback noise based on spoken tapes by Finnish preacher Leo Meller. ) Also Post-Industrial Self-Hatred Blues works as a good depiction of what I was doing live I think, guitar noise mostly.
After I moved to Japan I felt like there I didn't need to have separate projects for this like in Finland, if I wanted to play a noise gig, I just did it as Junkyard Shaman.
