DJ Halo
Surreal Audio Recordings Finland
Dj Halo is the original sonic spanker and the funky audio terrorist from the city of Helsinki in Finland.
The disco dancing discjockey started building his puzzle of beats as a DJ in 1993 and is still keeping up
the good work in the field of testing alternative sonic solutions or in DJ Halo's words... "disturbed disco and freestyle psychedelic trance are served sometimes chilled, sometimes hot".
The first contact to electronic music for Jere (his real name) was acid house.After that its been a journey through
a variety of styles:hip hop, trance, techno, electro and whatever is good really. DJ Halo have played with
most of the formats as well, nowadays he plays with both CD and vinyl.
Most of the times he uses the dancefloor as a subject of his vicious scientific experiments by testdriving
unreleased tunes made by friends, lovers and family.
It seems that some people actually like it too...and some hate it but as he says "who cares about those wankers anyway".
No REAL job at the moment, just enjoying the existence, working as a label damager for Surreal Audio Recordings (his record label), and doing some lazy music producing.
