Bad Loop is Petteri Karjaleinen, born July4th 1979 in St. Petersburg, Russia. Yes, a lot of Americans do celebrate his birthday! Moved to Finland and studied in the Music Institute of Vantaa in 1991. He started experimenting with midi and tracker software with Jari Saukkonen, with whom he produced music until his departure to South Africa in 1995. His debut ep "Lumme" was released in 2002 on UK based net label Kahvi Collective and later in 2005, having moved back to Helsinki, Finland, he released "Luo" ep on US netlabel One, and soon it gained popularity in several online magazines including Beat magazine and even Der Spiegel. Bad Loop teamed up with a fellow musician Recue in 2005, for series of live performances in Finland, Estonia and UK until 2008, and nowadays he is performing with Jari, associated with Coral Visuals, who is responsible for the custom real-time visuals. [ad#post-ad] Bad Loop listens to music such as Bjouml;rk, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Vangelis, Sia and Khonnor. He doesn't like the music industry, nasty people and reality shows on TV. He does like Helsinki during summer, driving his car and good company... We've played more tracks by Bad Loop on earlier Spacemusic podcasts a couple of years ago. This time the Jukebox plays a track from an EP called 'Avaruusromua'. The track is called 'Glacier'. Play it loud!
