Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC: Anything from folk music to Göteborg metal, but I mainly enjoy pop and rock. Sigur Rós, 22-Pistepirkko, Paperi-T, Mumrunner, Rubik, Scandinavian Music Group, Pariisin Kevät, The Crash, Eppu Normaali, Arcade Fire, The Kooks, Gim Kordon, Aino Venna, The Beatles...

BOOKS: I'm not that good in reading books at the moment. Kjell Westö and Tove Jansson are my favourite writers.

MOVIES: A good movie inspires, but honestly, movie just doesn't feel like the best form of art for me. Finnish movies tend to be good. Ganes (a movie about a finnish rock band Hurriganes) had an impact on me, as Man on a Wire also did. I've also watched Forrest Gump for at least ten times.
