Kebu is a composer and keyboardist who creates new instru-
mental, melodical synthesizer music of the kind that was made
in the 70’s and 80’s.
His debut album, To Jupiter and Back, is a tribute to the great
synthesizer music that he grew up with of artists such as Jean
Michel Jarre, Vangelis, and Mike Oldfield. The album consists
solely of music made using vintage analog synthesizers
recorded in the old fashioned way using only sequencers,
tape machines and analog mixers, which gives the album a
very warm and organic sound.
Th album was released in May 2012, and went straight to
number 28 on the Finnish Album Chart. The album was
nominated for"Best International Album" in the German
Schallwelle Music Awards
He has attracted a lot of appraisal and attention for his
YouTube channel containing high quality demo videos
of vintage synthesizers using his own compositions. The
channel was set up in 2010 and has already received
over half a million views.
Kebu’s music is distinguished not only by a dedicated
treatment of analog synthesis but also of an audience-
captivating live performance. Kebu’s live gigs are
surrounded by warmth and joy, as well as a huge
arsenal of analog synths
Kebu is also working on the debut album of Kouzin Bedlam,
where he plays keyboard. That record is expected to be
released in 2013.
