The event starts before the event ✨

Beginning of the week usually means planning what’s coming next. Emails, meetings, schedules — and starting to build the soundtrack.

Sometimes clients know exactly what they want to hear. Sometimes they know exactly what they don’t want to hear. And sometimes I just get to play it by ear — or by feel, to be real.

Fast-forward the part of the event I’m playing. Arrivals need something different from cocktails. Dinner is different from the party. And even with the same people in the same room, the music has a different job throughout the day.

The good thing about having done this for quite a few years now is that I’ve already put together hundreds and hundreds of playlists to go through — so I (almost) always have somewhere to start. 🤩

The rest gets crafted in the moment based on the people, the place and eventually the room itself.
And realistically speaking — expect the unexpected. In moderation, of course.

8 THINGS I’VE LEARNED AS A DJ 🎧

I’ve been doing this long enough to realise that most of what DJing has taught me has very little to do with DJing.

Some things I learned quickly. Some took years. And the best part is I’m still learning every day.

Different rooms, countries, people, mistakes, great nights, strange nights and tons of music along the way.

These are a few things I’ve picked up so far.

Turns out growing as a DJ has meant growing as a person too — and that’s definitely one of the reasons I love what I do, besides getting to bring more joy into the world through music. 🫶✨

THE DAY THAT HAPPENS ONCE 🤍

One thing I’ve always loved about music is where it takes you — into moments that are special because they only happen once ✨

This was one of those days this summer.
A beautiful celebration filled with love, family, friends and music. N & J 🤍

Every wedding reminds me how unique these days really are. Finnish weddings, international weddings, intimate celebrations and bigger parties — sometimes playing from the first arrivals through cocktails, dinner and the evening’s program all the way to the afterparty, sometimes joining for one part of the day alongside other incredible musicians and performers.

Every wedding has its own people, story and rhythm. No two are the same.

The summer of love has now found its place in our memories, and I’m looking ahead at a calendar filled with more weddings and celebrations through the rest of the year.

Grateful for the trust of being part of these once-in-a-lifetime days — and for getting to bring joy through music along the way ❤️

Bringing more joy to the world, one night at a time 💜

That’s still one of my favourite things about DJing. You get to step into a room full of people, read the moment, and hopefully leave everyone a little happier than when they arrived.

After a long day of celebrating, live music and great artists, I had the pleasure of closing the night behind the decks at the iconic Katajanokan Kasino in Helsinki.

Beautiful venue, beautiful energy and another reminder of why I love doing this. ✨

WSOPC♠️

Some of my favorite events to DJ are poker tournaments — whether it’s the opening or closing party. There’s always a special energy around them✨

This time in Tallinn, it was the final day of the WSOPC World Series of Poker Circuit, leading into the Players’ Party at OlyBet Bar & Grill.

The players gave it their all in the tournament, on the dancefloor and on the mic singing karaoke at the closing party🤩

What a pleasure to be part of these moments♠️💜✨

What you may or may not know about me:

I started my career in music with drums 🥁
Determined. Stubborn. Curious.

By going deep into rhythm, I didn’t just learn music —
I learned perspective.
The deeper you go, the more you realize there’s no finish line. And that’s the beauty of it.

Drums became part of my identity.
They shaped how I think, feel, and create — all the way to becoming a DJ and music producer today.

Jarkko Rantala is one of those people who helped me discover my path.
We started studying together — him as my drum teacher.
More than 10 years later, we created something beautiful together:

The Basics of Rhythm and Drumming — an online course built from those same foundations, made for anyone who wants to truly understand rhythm.

People often ask me how to start learning music.
My answer is always the same:

Listen to your gut.
Start where you are.
Play. Learn. Have fun.
And dare to suck — because you will 🫶

I believe my dreams are only a certain number of tries away.
It’s up to me how fast I want to get there ✨

No rush, peace in my mind — just letting the music lead.

The year is coming to an end✨
Christmas time is settling in🎄

All the pressure I’ve built through the year, leading to some of the most important moments of my career so far — I feel like I can finally relax.
Relax enough to bring that spark of energy when it’s needed for the performance, and at other times just stop and listen to what my calling is encouraging me to put my mind and energy into next.

Soon it’ll be time to turn the lights off for a moment —
to be mindful instead of being mind full✨
