Teddy Rok: Atonal Drums is an experimental solo project by renowned drummer-producer Teppo Mäkynen, in which both acoustic and electronic drum expressions are embedded in a synthesizer-based sample landscape. At the intersection, both tonal and atonal, composed and improvised music meet. The live line-up has grown into a duo where, in addition to Mäkynen, Nikita Rafaelov, an interesting keyboardist-producer of a younger generation, plays. The duo’s expression combines modern jazz, ambient, hip-hop, electronica and New Age aesthetics. The diverse influences are stitched together by the friends’ strong human and jazzy touch, which keeps the performance organic, down-to-earth and always very spontaneous.
