Mika Kallio: gongs and synthesizer
\nJussi Fredriksson: gongs and synthesizers
\nJaska Lukkarinen: gongs, synthesizer and percussion instruments
\nMax Zenger: bass clarinet, double bass clarinet and percussion<\/h3>\n

Percussion artist Mika Kallio’s fourth album Gong Odyssey was released in June 2022, and it received an enthusiastic reception and five-star reviews. The album mainly features gongs of different sizes, i.e. metallic circular percussion instruments. The compositions sway in accordance with the nature of the gongs in the middle ground between ambient and improvised music. Kallio boldly throws himself into uncharted territories, conjuring a sound space where time ceases to exist.<\/p>\n

Mika has gathered a versatile and creative group around him, who in addition to his main instruments also master the skill of playing gongs. The ethereal album’s soundscapes come to life in the hands of keyboardist-drummer Jussi Fredriksson, woodwind player Max Zenger and drummer Jaska Lukkarinen.<\/p>\n

“I’m really excited to be able to make the gong journey surrounded by such top talent”, Kallio enthuses his fellow players.<\/p>\n

Mika Kallio’s (b. 1974) playing has always been defined by his broad scope, listening sensitivity and the ability to make the drums play in a way that enriches the accompanying ensemble. The internationally respected master of improvisation is especially known for his duos with saxophonist Mikko Innanen and trumpeter Verneri Pohjola, as well as the Kallio Slaaki percussion ensemble and the IMPULSION project with dance artist Satu Rinnetm\u00e4ki.<\/p>\n
