OUT JANUARY, 2009 :: LUOMO - TESSIO (INCL. STIMMING & SPECTRE RMXS)
great stuff recordings



a1 :: luomo - tessio (stimming remix)
a2 :: luomo - tessio (stimming dub)
b1 :: luomo - tessio (spektre remix)
b2 :: luomo - tessio (original remastered)

The Great Stuff Roots Edition presents a groundbreaking classic with amazing new remixes: The timeless “Tessio” from Finnish producer Sasu Ripatti aka Luomo, originally released on Force Tracks. Since wonderboy Luomo already bewitched world-wide audiences with four full-length albums as well as his critically acclaimed live performances since the early 2000 it’s time to breathe new life into this outstanding deephouse classic from 2001. And one of the most appropriate remixers these days certainly is Stimming, known for his amazing organic house productions on Buzzin Fly, Diynamic, Freerange, Liebe . With his musical sense for harmonies and vocals in combination with his driving beats he proved this choice was more than right.

To rock the techno floors the same way, Great Stuff asked the duo Spektre for their treatment. Paul Maddox and Filthy Rich from Leeds did what they had to do and turned it straight into a 2009 peaktime techno bullet. Last but not least the original diamond itself, properly remastered by Martin Eyerer, a 12 minutes journey into the most beautiful deephouse.

SELECTED FEEDBACK GS081:

Sasu Ripatti is the producer and head writer behind the project Luomo, his musical outfit that has redrawn the very boundaries of what "house music" can achieve.

Always a shy man, Ripatti returns into view to introduce to the world "Convivial"; his latest, and fourth, album as Luomo.
For his relief though, this time he doesn't have to arrive alone. In addition to a long-time collaborator Johanna Iivanainen (From Helsinki, Finland), this time he lands with a semi-underground star cast; Cassy (Panorama Bar), Sascha Ring (Apparat), Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters), Robert Owens, Sue-C and one anonymous singer who hides behind a name Chubbs.

Luomo is nothing less than a great tragedian, holding a mirror before a music society that sometimes would like to hear less stories. Nevertheless he finds the dance music medium most suitable for his pop explorations, which makes sense when you consider his heavy-hitting resume in the electronic and experimental music mediums.
He resists pigeonholing and is against market fundamentalism but still loves to cross over to pop worlds.
For him the fear is never an option and somewhat through all that he has a remarkable ability to endure, with a respectable and wide-ranging catalogue of unique no-frills releases, with "Convivial" certainly being no exception.
