Alan Wilkinson (b. 1955) has been one of the key figures in the UK improvised music scene since the early 1980's. He's been performing with Derek Bailey, Peter Brötzmann, Barry Guy, Fred van Hove and Keith Tippett among others.
Alan Wilkinson is probably best known as a member of the take no prisoners Hession/ Wilkinson/Fell trio. He has also played solo gigs since 1991.
Finnish jazz-noise duo Gentle Evil was born in 2005 and has since then performed rarely but regularly. Their last appearance was in 2010 at Vaihtoehto Festival in Tampere as a trio with another noise maker Pentti Dassum (Umpio).
Keränen makes noise on his own and with Testicle Hazard, Les Manures (with mr. Umpio), and occasionally in ad hoc line ups.
Janne Tuomi has released three percussion solo albums and appears in several Circle albums. He has performed with Barry Guy, John Zorn and Wadada Leo Smith to name a few. He is a member of jazz quintet Rakka, New Garden Orchestra and Osuma percussion ensemble.
