Star You Star Me mp3

STAR YOU STAR ME is the electronic dance music band for the 21st century, two gifted artists doing what they do best: making music that is both driving and beautiful.

JANI LEHTO, age 27, had been playing around with computers and synths his whole life when the deep house boom in the mid-nineties in their home town TURKU, FINLAND finally showed him the direction for his music. His house collective DSE reached for that warm NY house sound of those days but with Star You Star Me the new path was chosen...

TATU METSÄTÄHTI, at 28, has already gained worldwide reputation in underground electro circles with his band MR VELCRO FASTENER and MESAK solo projects. His synth programming skills and musical ideas and visions double the creative potential of the duo.

In the late 2001 Tatu and Jani started swapping their unfinished tracks: if Jani had an idea for a track he gave it to Tatu, and then Tatu would continue the process, or vice versa. First tracks were called Disco Dancer, Antidis, and Loveletter, and two out of three were later released on Slip 'n' Slide Blue and Moodmusic Records. Star You Star Me was born. The first gig of Star You Star Me was in May 2002. Then the first release ("Disco Dancer" single) was finally released one year later with impressive reviews and comments accompanying.

The sound of SYSM is a combination of minimalistic house grooves and emotional, high fidelity electronic soundscapes. It's easy to recognize a StarYou track - fat retro disco drums beating on top of the most crispiest and widest synths sounds.

Their vision of sound is coupled with the vision that music should always be momentous and not just entertaining, music should make people cry or laugh, give reasons to survive through the reality of day-to-day living. The music of SYSM is an endeavour for bringing their feelings and experiences honestly to the listener.

Star You Star Me is the sound to move to, the words that speak. A return to the coolest disco sound re-energized for todays clubs, livingrooms, media players and iPods.
