(words: Fanu + Fistfunk / pics: Ville Myllymaa)

Thursday.
April 26.
9:52 a.m.
I’m working on some black coffee to nourish the body and the mind.

I’m to write some interview questions for mr. Fistfunk to unravel who he is, how he feels about drum&bass, why we haven’t heard of him before, what he likes, and so on.

He first came to my attention maybe two, three years ago as I happened to get some of his music (I think it was the track “0001” that’s now on his EP) from Trisector (Med School etc.) as we were living in the same flat. As much as it may sound like a cliché, I was blown away, to say the least, as I’m always on the lookout for something fresh in the world of breakbeat drum and bass.
I’m quite tired of some super-crazy edits by now and I much rather prefer a little more subtle breaks with dope drum sounds (think of Danny Breaks and Fracture, for example) – just like in Fistfunk’s case. Coming up with drum sounds you haven’t heard in d&b before is a big plus in my book – and it’s not that hard, actually, so we should all be trying. Let’s give that Amen a break (pun semi-intended)?

Anyways – let’s get these questions on.
To those with a pretty short attention span, I’ll say all the Fistunk EP audio can be found at the bottom of this blog post, so jump there if you feel like cutting straight into the badassness.

FANU:
Introduce yourself. Name, age, shoe size – whatever you want to tell us.

FISTFUNK:
Hello! My name is Timo Kari, I’m 26 years old and my shoe size is 45-47.
I’m a nice guy and I like music and stuff.

FANU:
Big shoes always mean big….breaks!
You knew I’d be kicking it off with a classic question: when did you get into d&b? How?
Also, feel free to elaborate on how you got into making music in the first place. You definitely don’t sound like you started making beats very recently.
What elements led to the birth of Fistfunk? History lesson time here.

FISTFUNK:
My first memories from really starting to get into d&b have to do with hearing a mix that my brother recorded from the radio in 1999 (Dj Dizzy on Radio Mafia). I loved the first track on that tape and it was on repeat for quite a while.
A few years later I found out that the tune in question was “Atlantis” by LTJ Bukem. If I remember correctly I think that the second track was Pharaohe Monch’s “Simon Says” (Roni Size & Dj Die remix). It would be awesome to find this tape again.

I also got sucked into music production around this time and it was by accident, in a way. When I started, I was just fooling around with some music software, but after having done this for a couple of years, I realized that I was kind of addicted.
I had a bit of a crisis with my music hobby a couple of years ago and the result of that crisis is the Fistfunk EP. I copied the name “Fistfunk” from a track title on some old d&b compilation CD. There is no other reason for this name choice other than that I simply thought it sounded pretty good.

FANU:
Let’s hope they’re not going to chase your ass for that!
Let us know about some tracks that played a major role in shaping your taste for d&b. Tell us why you liked them and all that jazz.

FISTFUNK:
Tight/fat breakbeats at any tempo – no matter what music style – I will dig it.
It has always been like this. As a teenager, I fell in love with the breaks of 90s hiphop/triphop, and after hearing break-oriented d&b, I fell in love with that, too.
If I have to mention tracks, I will say that Photek’s “Ni Ten Ichi Ryu” is still at the top of its game when it comes to break production. When I first heard this track, I rinsed it in my Walkman over and over and over again, and I still do, so it must have had an influence on me and my taste in one way or another.

FANU:
Photek was truly at the top of his game with his break production, and influenced many – including myself – there’s no doubting that!
Tracks of yours such as “0001″ (above) are an indication that you’re putting some serious efforts in the breaks you do.
Drum & bass needs more of that, so producers: take heed!
As your EP has been doing its promo rounds, it’s been causing a lot of reactions, all of them positive. Some people have been almost shocked by the fact that you “came out of nowhere” and your stuff sounds so huge and well-crafted.
I’ve seen comments such as “Why the hell haven’t I heard of this dude before?”, and DJ Bailey was playing some of your stuff before we decided to release the EP, and Outrage seems to like it as well. A lot of fanatic d&b heads have been praising your stuff.
Every time I drop some of your tracks on gigs, people get crazy, faint, die, or something like that.
How does it feel? What do you have to say?

FISTFUNK:
I haven’t heard my own music in a club environment, and to know that there are people around the world that dance to stuff I’ve made makes it feel kind of surreal – but of course in a good way!
As for me being unknown, I’ve always made music for myself and I’ve really enjoyed the freedom of not caring if anyone likes what I do or not. After producing music for over a decade and not really putting any effort into sending stuff out, I had to stop and think about what I was doing.
The Fistfunk EP is the result of me having to go through the process of looking at myself in the mirror and asking myself what the f00k I’ve been doing for the last X years and does anyone except me even like it?
Also, another reason that led to the creation of the EP is that I feel that not until now do I feel that I have enough knowledge and skill to be able to create some of the ideas that I have in my head. I still have a loooooong way to go and that makes me feel good.
“It`s not about the destination, it`s about the journey” etc.

FANU:
If this is really the first material you’re putting out for the public, well, I bet you’ve got one nice ride ahead of you!
Let’s talk about style as yours seems to be very strong on the EP.
I guess everyone has one’s own style in d&b, whether or not they’re trying to go for it consciously.
If you had to describe it, what’s your “thing” when it comes to making d&b? What’s the thing you’re striving to achieve with it? Feel free to elaborate!

FISTFUNK:
I’ve been thinking about this myself, and I’m not sure.
I try to create original-sounding drums with interesting grooves because that is what I want to hear when I listen to d&b but I don’t know if I can call this my style.
I will say that perhaps my style is the way I make my drums and basslines – even if that sounds pretty retarded when thinking about the name of the genre in question!

Maybe it is something really obvious that I haven’t noticed myself. Might be
easier for someone else to notice if there is something in my music that might
be seen as my own style.

I’m not really trying to find a style that I can call my own, though: I want to
create something that sounds new and fresh. If everything I create sounded
instantly recognizable by its sound aesthetics, composition or anything else, then
it wouldn’t actually be new and fresh at all. I guess this is not a good approach when it
comes to marketing my music as a product or creating an image of me as an artist,
but I’m not making a living out music either, so I don’t give a shit!

FANU:
Just do it for yourself, don’t give a shit, see if it goes anywhere. That’s the spirit. Keeping it real.
As far as I know, you definitely seem to like making other styles of music as well, which is awesome (no man should do d&b only, imho). You sent me some bootlegs, which were pretty damn kick-ass, actually.
Tell us what’s cooking in the Fistfunk lab when you’re not making d&b?
Do you have plans for putting out non-dnb material, too, and would that be under the Fistfunk moniker as well?

FISTFUNK:
I like the thought of being able to create any kind of music that I’d like to hear, but also music that I haven’t heard before. I try to step outside of my comfort zone as much as possible when producing because this way I might learn new techniques or perhaps even a new approach to creating my music.
It would be an awesome achievement to have music released on labels from totally different genres – and to get signed purely on the basis of the quality of the music.
I do have a couple of projects that will be under different monikers and I intend to try and get the stuff signed at some point.
Jungle is where home is at for me though because it’s the genre that I always keep returning to after having these different “excursions” to other music styles.

FANU:
Care to tell us what you use for producing music? I saw some people were asking you that on FB already. What gets you buzzing? What inspires you?

FISTFUNK:
I’m a software only guy and I’ve used the same software for ages (Fruity 6 & Nuendo).
I’m happy with my workflow etc. so I don’t see any reason to upgrade (at least not yet).
I don’t have a magic plug-in either. I think after you know and understand your basic sound-shaping tools + your sequencer, it’s mostly about listening, analyzing and understanding music/sound in general. This knowledge translates automatically to better “sound quality” and music, imho.
Inspiration for me can come from anything really. I might get inspired by a sound, a sample, a mood, an idea, weather, life etc.

FANU:
Are you planning to be gigging in the future? I wouldn’t be surprised if promoters were eating you up after hearing the kind of stuff you’re making.

FISTFUNK:
Yeah, that is something I’d love to do!
I’ve never really played a “proper” set anywhere, so I’m working hard on reaching a level where I feel that I am satisfied with my skills.

FANU:
Where can people find you in the Internet world? How do they get in touch with you if they want to send you fan/hatemail, booking requests, how-the-hell-do-you-make-those-drums types of questions, etc?

FISTFUNK:
I just created a Fistfunk page on Facebook and I’ll be going to use it as a main outlet for informing people about stuff regarding me and my music. If anyone has any questions about anything, just send me a message there.
Additionally, you can also give me and my tunes comments and feedback on my Soundcloud page.

FANU:
I can’t help ending this interview with some randomness, so bear with me.
Do you like coffee? If so, what do you put in it, if anything?

FISTFUNK:
I love all sorts of coffee. What I put in it depends on my mood and the type of coffee.

FANU:
Favorite beer(s)?

FISTFUNK:
When I drink beer, the brand doesn’t matter. Pretty much any lager goes.

FANU:
I heard you were getting (back) into skateboarding?

FISTFUNK:
Yeah! I just bought myself a new complete and I’m really looking forward to this summer. I skated intensively for 5-6 years when I was younger, and it was something I was really into but I busted my knees so I had to quit.
The knees have been ok for a few years now so I think they are ready for some more punishment.

(Fistfunk pic by Ville Myllymaa)

FANU:
Hell yeah! I think we should drink lots of coffee + beer and go skate.
What music have you been into recently?

FISTFUNK:
Bonobo, Pepe Deluxe & Teebs + random records from the flea market.

FANU:
Is walnut a nut? No Googling!

FISTFUNK:
I’ve always thought so. Never questioned it though..Yes?

FANU:
No, it’s actually a legume – so now you know!
Plans for the summer?

FISTFUNK:
Work, family, music, friends & skateboarding.

FANU:
Sounds like a plan!
Shout-outs, last words, anything. Feel free to say whatever you want, man.

FISTFUNK:
Shout-outs to my family and everyone who has supported me in one way or another. Thank you very very much!

Fistfunk’s self-titled EP is out now.
Buy the EP at Digital Tunes, Juno, iTunes, or any other decent digital store.
Check out Fistfunk on Facebook and Fistfunk’s Soundcloud page.

We’re re-promoting some Lightless back catalogue.
The reason for this is that my distributor has to make space for new releases, and old stuff has to go.
You know, this is pretty much the way every store works (be it a record store, clothing store etc).

You’ll be able to get – for nice prices – the following releases:

Fanu: “Homefree” 3*12”
Fanu: “Daylightless” 2CD
LIGHTLESS003 12” (Naphta)
LIGHTLESS004 12” (Martsman w/ Bad Matter & Cycom)

**NOTE**!
This campaign is ONLY for May, after which the distributor has to make space for new stock, and these have to go.
In other words: if you want to get some physical Lightless releases, NOW is the time – before they’ll be gone.
Order from any decent online store (if the records don’t show in their stock, you only need to tell them to get some as they WILL get some from the Lightless distributor) OR go and harass your local shop and tell them to order some.
For example: go on Chemical Records’ website, locate the abovementioned releases (or just use the links above) and click on “WANT IT”.
Act before it’s too late: after May, it will be harder to find these releases in shops.

Audio for all releases below.

DAYLIGHTLESS double-CD

HOMEFREE 3*12″

LIGHTLESS003 12″: NAPHTA

LIGHTLESS004 12″: MARTSMAN w/ BAD MATTER & CYCOM

To promote Gracias + JTT’s awesome debut collabo album, “GLOBE”, out on Cocoa Music on May 7, 2012, I present to you my remix of mr. G’s awesome “Nightshift”.
Here it is – Gracias’s superb flow meets Fanu’s broken beat treatment, which even makes a little visit to a housey side.
Enjoy it, play it, download it, share it, and make sure to check out “GLOBE” by Gracias + JTT on May 7.

First, to make it clear to everyone and to make sure no-one’s getting the wrong idea: I’m not quitting.
I know the post will be long, but if you want to get the full picture of how I’m feeling, I suggest you read through the whole post instead of surfing through really fast.
Second, this is mostly aimed at my fans, and this is by no means a post that’s related to being an artist in general.
Also, if you stumbled upon this by post by accident or are not interested, I’d suggest taking a look elsewhere as this blog post doesn’t represent the more entertaining end of the spectrum.

Here goes some introspective blah-blah.
I don’t know where or how to start, so I’ll just kick it off somewhere and somehow to get the ball rolling.

I’m feeling discouraged as an artist.
I feel that I’m not going where I’ve started dreaming of going or achieving what I’d like to.

A long time ago, I accepted the fact that there’s very little money in this biz (especially music sales) as long as I keep doing the kind of music I do so that’s not the problem at all as I’ve realized that I’ll mostly be getting pennies…so that’s been established. No huge surprises there.
Also, these days most of my income comes from doing non-music-related work so that’s being taken care of and I don’t feel dependent on trying to get money from music.

Also, I’m extremely grateful to all of my fans and the constant feedback I get.
That’s invaluable, and something money can never buy, especially in an artist’s world.

So, what is it then?
To be honest, I’d like to be a little more “out there” and play gigs, to put it bluntly.
In spite of doing what feels like a hell of a lot of work (e.g., finishing and releasing my album last year, putting together a live set, and doing a shitload of promotion and contacting all sorts of media, giving out tracks as well as loads of mixes), I feel that it’s not working in my favor, and things are slowing down.
I’ve put out shitloads of mixes, given out free tunes, and now I’m also releasing my monthly radio shows.
Last year, I played maybe three gigs, and at the moment, there’s five gigs lined up for 2012 (four of them live, one DJ gig). That’s not very much for someone who’s put in a lot of work in order to try and get some shows. But let me tell you: I will LOVE those gigs.
Also, I’ve been trying to get in touch with all sorts of media to get some recognition in order to grow and spread the music, but that isn’t working out.
Honestly, I don’t know what it takes anymore.

I know that an artist should always do his/her art for theirselves out of pure love and not expect much.
That’s what I always keep saying to those who ask me for some simple advice.
However, I’ve been making music more or less seriously since 2002 or so, so it’s been ten years (btw, I started messing around with music when I was around 12 – so the whole thing started 20 years ago!)
I can say that I’ve put in some work, and – you have the right to call me ungrateful – I can’t help feeling that I’d like to be just a little bit further than where I’m now.
You know how you take up something with a huge passion, set some goals, try to keep them realistic, and at some point you have to do a little check to see how you’re doing? That’s what I’m doing here.

Some years ago, I used to get to play out as a DJ quite regularly, and back then I wasn’t even trying so hard. It was all just fun and games (as it should be!), and I was as far from a professional as possible; I was studying at the Uni of Helsinki to become a MA (which eventually happened in late 2009) and I was left with a lot of spare time, all of which I put on music, and that took me around the world.

I had to take a little break to concentrate on finishing my degree and I also happened to be a teacher for a year, which didn’t leave me with much time or energy for music.
Now, I’m more of a grown-up (got those bills to pay, gotta pay off the big study loan, and I can’t be making music as much as I used to) but I’m trying to be way more professional as an artist. I have less time for music because of all sorts of obligations and “real jobs” and I’m more aware of everything I should be aware of as an artist. I’m trying to reach out for media for some exposure (which usually leads in almost zero response), technically I’ve got better than before, and I even have the means to play live.
And it’s not going very well.

I still have my fans, which is the most important thing to me and whom I love.
I give a lot of stuff out through social media, and the instant feedback is frigging great.
All the undying, unconditional love I’ve got from the fans throughout the years has been what’s been carrying and pushing me a great deal as an artist, and I’m forever indebted to all my fans for that.
If it wasn’t for them, I would’ve been way more discouraged a long time ago.

I’d like to remind you at this point that this is all introspective.
I’m not much of a writer, and all this could be written a thousand times better and snappier if I had some writing skills – and the patience to do some editing.

So, what am I trying to say here?

These days, at times, I find myself questioning my passion and my devotion to “the music thing”.
Simply put, I’m not where I’d like to be and I’ve accepted the fact that it isn’t going to change for the better/bigger.
As much as I LOVE the awesome feedback I always get, having fans and getting nice comments on Facebook alone isn’t enough to grow as an artist, which would be my ultimate goal.
Getting love from the fans is not enough – unfortunately! – to get attention from elsewhere.

It was my dream to become an artist who’d get to play out his music and earn at least some income through music (let me emphasize, I never even dreamed of making all my living by doing the music thing), making it at least my part-time job, and that, in turn, would fuel my passion even more, so it’d all work in a certain positively feeding cycle – you know how it works.

Let’s face it: aside from the social media action, I’m not “out there” at all, and even though I wasn’t expecting anything massive, honestly, I’m not going to be half as out there as I’d like to be today in order to say it’s very worthwhile.
Many artists have to balance between “a real job” and their “artistry”, but I’ve been doing the balancing thing for quite a long time now, and today, I can’t help feeling that I don’t have the energy or passion to contribute to the artist thing very much or at least with the ambition I used to have – and it’s both sad and liberating to admit.
I feel that the work I put in isn’t taking me where I’d like to go, and trust me, I’ve tried.
Being a thriving artist takes faith, work, time, and devotion, and – I hate to say it – I’m starting to lose some of that, and I feel that I’ve gone past the point where I’d expect to see some somewhat notable results.
Also, I have and will kiss zero ass.

It all has become harder for me, and what was happening for me as an artist some years ago isn’t happening anymore: in fact, it feels like things are slowing down.

Times and things have changed, and artists who want to “make it” need to adapt accordingly.
For example, they need the media.
The media is so fucking huge these days, it’s hard to try and get on the “wave” if you’re not there already, and those who are riding the wave seem to enjoy it.

Also, even though I genuinely do not hate on what seems to get some genuine attention in the music world, I must admit that I’m sometimes appalled or at least very bored to see what kind of music it takes to get listeners these days.
Some of the DJs whose support meant a lot to me some years ago aren’t even replying to my messages anymore, so I’m not even trying to send them music anymore.
I’ve accepted the fact that the music I make is extremely “non-media-sexy” and very uninteresting to most, and the d&b generation is also shedding its skin constantly, making me feel like a relic at times.
I feel that I can’t get on “the wave”, and I’ve tried to achieve at least some of that to the point of exhaustion – where the only healthy option left is to say “Fuck it”.

So yeah.
“Fuck it”.

It seems that in spite of studying academic writing, I can’t put the point of my “thesis” into one snappy phrase, so I’m sorry if you were expecting a good, sharp, tasty ending.
I guess I’m trying to say here that I may be giving this whole artist thing less attention in the future as, to be honest, I keep feeling disappointed every time I have to admit it that it’s pretty much impossible to grow without making any compromises, and I’m not going to make any compromises – just as I haven’t made one to this day.

I’ve given the music thing a lot of love, and I’ve gotten a LOT of love back.
In a way, I’ve achieved WAY more than I thought I’d achieve ten years ago.
It’s just that at some point I started to get hungrier and I started wanting more, but being what I am as an artist, I’ve had to accept the fact that I’ve pretty much reached the limits and I’m just banging my head on the wall at times.

I’m still going to do Lightless as it’s been going – probably digital every time.
Sorry for not doing vinyl: it’s a risky business and having vinyl made isn’t cheap, and to be honest, I don’t think it’d sell well enough.
If music was gaining me some money that I could put aside, I might invest that in vinyl, but with how it’s working for me at the moment, it’s not going to happen, and the very little I get goes on rent. Just being honest here. Sorry for promising some vinyl some time ago.
I’ll probably be giving most – if not all – of my future music for free, yet I’m not 101% sure about it (I appreciate my distributor’s help to the very max and I already feel very indebted to them for all the help), but at least as an idea, that feels like the best decision at the moment in order to liberate myself from all seriousness as much as possible.

I’ll still be “in the game” as I’ve always been, but I guess it’s time for me to drop some expectations.
Maybe that’ll let me enjoy it even more, who knows?

I’m not angry: I’m feeling pretty neutral, maybe a little frustrated.
I’m not blaming anyone for anything.
I’m definitely not writing this to evoke any “Oh you’re so great, please don’t quit!” types of posts, either.
Maybe I’ll feel super-effing-embarrassed about all this in a week.

So yeah. You’ve reached the blunt end of the post.
Thanks for reading!

P.S.: I’m not “quitting”!

I’m a huge fan of Yona and her original song, “Kevätfiilis”.
I asked Yona if I could remix the track, and to my delightful surprise, I was given the permission to do it.

The title of the track if Finnish and it translates into “Springtime vibe”.
I did the remix when the winter here in Finland finally gave way to spring and the sun started shining, melting away the snow and ice we’d seen throughout the long, dark winter we had, so the timing was perfect.

We mutually decided that we’d give the remix out for free.
You can download the mp3 on Fanu’s Soundcloud page.

I hope you like it as much as I liked both enjoying the original (which you can easily find on Youtube) as well as crafting the remix, which I think came out pretty warm and energetic, just like proper springtime should be.

Play it out loud and enjoy some true kevätfiilis!
