Subject: Höyry Kone re’release campaign
Date Posted: June 15 2005 at 11:03

I've had contact with Jarno Surkula (memb. of the great Höyry- Kone and (now)Alamaillman Vasarat (great aswell, of course)) , and the long sold out two records from Höyry- Kone is in the planning of getting a rerelease on the small label; Wolfgang Records.

I suggested that I could help him put preasure on the label and encourage them to actually do so. This is a great chance for everyone who missed out on them last time.

So I wondered if you guys & girls could help me with having people send NICE emails to Hannu Leiden, head of Wolfgang Records :
mailto:[email protected] - [email protected]

and make 'em confident in putting it out.


Please state this on your site, please spread the word, I know this is good news.


(if other questions on this campaign please contact me:
mailto:[email protected] - [email protected] ).

thanks                                                      you'll find   sound samples  in the archives!!!

Ditto... But I don't want to make any promises - I don't have a lot of spare cash right now.

Hi. I didn't mean to send him money or anything! Just send your support. Tell him how great you think Höyry Kone is! And that he can count on you to buy them! 

this way encourage them to re-release them- and do it quick.

I know that there is enough of people that are interested round the world, but Finland is not a big country, there is not so much money involved in this industry to be frank. And nobody want's to loose money just because most people are fine with what plays on the radio.

so again, this is not about sending the Wolfgang Records money- I have certanly haven't asked him about that either(so you have to ask them about that yourselves). But for my part just send them your words of support!  

 

keep the scene alive!!!

thanks

Simen -(and again, any other question - feel also free to drop me an email: mailto:[email protected] - [email protected] )

That's what I meant - I couldn't guarentee that I'd buy them, not right now. I really want to see this go ahead though. Their music is so wonderfully creative - it should be heard and enjoyed by all!

I'm glad, I thought I was unclear.

But anyway if you have them allready that's great. But I'm quite convinced that a re'release is not a bad idea(also financially). Many missed out on them the last time..   

quoting Trouserpress on this one : Their music is so wonderfully creative - it should be heard and enjoyed by all!

I guess the most important thing is that Wolfgang Records get some response, not obligations that you actually will be buying it as long as you are sincere that you think it is a good idea to give it another release.

thanks.

Simen
