Free entry
Tenho's fall 2024 DCH-club again experiences a top cavalcade of guests and interesting themes that are likely to create exciting musical encounters and expeditions to the material of the master composers. DCH calls the shots with some of the leading soloists in our country for alchemic experimentation as different genres and starting points are mixed with the acoustically implemented expression of the band.
September's club promises a swinging and deep dive into the music of jazz' eccentric genius Thelonius Monk!

Mikko Hassinen Food Factory
Teosto-awarded percussionist Mikko Hassinen will again return to small ensemble music, inspired by his young and skilled ensemble. The broad and layered wind instrument orchestration painted by the previous Espoo Big Band: Blood Red album, which received five stars from Helsingin Sanomat, turns into the intimate and focused vibration of a small collective in the music of Future Food Factory, where acoustic jazz takes on an electric layer.
The music from the first album, which will be released in September, will be available in clubs and concerts right from the fall.
Mikko Hassinen: drums, electronics, compositions
Max Zenger: alto saxophone, bass clarinet
Mikko Antila: vibraphone
Antti Ahoniemi: double bass
Future Food Factory is a record with which its composer Mikko Hassinen tries to musically describe his own complicated relationship with nature. The music is basically acoustic and breathing, but despite the acoustic principle, the album has a touch of electricity. In the post-production phase, many songs have received layers that differ from traditional quartet jazz. The recorded material has been modified and processed. The album that started acoustically turns into something else along the way.
