| About Takomo |
Takomo is the monicker of two young music enthusiasts from Finland, Pekka Kokkonen and Otto Hassinen. Originally drawing influences from dark drum'n'bass, Takomo has been moving fluently from drum'n'bass to techno and dubstep, and most notably nuskool breakbeat.
The two have released music on labels such as Botchit Breaks, Fusetrax and most recently, Trans:verse records but besides breakbeat scene, they've also worked on indie film scores, game music and soundtracks for digital art. A typical working pace for Takomo is slow, mainly due to the carefully detailed and welded soundscapes.
Besides working on their tunes, they've also got into dj'ing. They have hosted a show on award winning radio station, Breaks FM, and they've played shows inside and outside Finland as well. Their dj sets are as versatile as their production, moving fluently between different soundscapes of breakbeat to dubstep and electro, with a hint of techno, house and drum'n'bass here and there.
But the two are not the only people to play their tracks, as they have received dj support from the likes of Annie Nightingale, Tayo, Sunz of Mecha, Baobinga, Hoffman, LBJ, ElSid, Stormtrooperz, Influenza and Cereal Killaz.
