Brothomstates -- Brothomstates is een pseudoniem van de Finse artiest Lassi...
Brothomstates is een pseudoniem van de Finse artiest Lassi Nikko.
Na een lange tijd actief te zijn geweest in de Finse demo-scene is Lassi Nikko definitief naar de electronische muziek overgestapt in 2000, met een 12" op het Finse label Exogenic.

 clevescene.com | News | Brothomstates
Home to misfits such as Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, and Autechre, the English label has continually opened its arms (and mind) to the world of eccentric electronica.
Born Lassi Nikko in Suomi, Finland, Brothomstates achieved notoriety as a "tracker" in the "demoscenes" of Finland and Russia.
Brothomstates has tracked graphic illustrations since the mid-'90s, sometimes under programmer handles Dune and Orange.

 Arcola - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arcola is an offshoot of the Intelligent Dance Music record label Warp Records.
All Arcola releases are 12-inch singles released in a generic sleeve designed by The Designers Republic.
Although some artists such as Brothomstates and Milanese are shared by both the Warp and Arcola label, Arcola releases are always more dancefloor-oriented.

 brothomstates Mp3 Albums Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
But for the most part, the insistence on laying metallic blocks of beats upon one another, and then chucking in all manner of random synth screeches, and static squelches on top "Just to see what happens" is not an indicator of great originality, not to mention an often grating listen.
Its all been done before ; I would suggest that the warp stable is still yet to announce a heavyweight successor to the Aphex twin, sticking as it is to the likes of Brothomstates ; apparently a willing re-hasher of its contemporaries; autechre et al...

 Default : Brothomstates
Brothomstates is Finnish-resident Lassi Nikko, a name that is already known to many due to his phenomenal Qtio EP and album Claro on legendary music label Warp Records.
However, his music recently garnered even more attention when his track "Adozenaday" was used on the Sprite TV advertisements.
The sound of Brothomstates is hard to define.

 Brothomstates - Claro - Review - Stylus Magazine
With the release of his debut album in MP3 format, Lassi Nikko, the man behind Brothomstates, entered onto the scene with a solid collection of affecting music that was extremely personal and complex.
With the next song, however, the drum comes in and I’m immediately reminded of Autechre from their Tri Repetae days; the sped-up drum pattern in the middle of the track only confirms my suspicion as to who they are drawing from on this track, as it plods merrily along.
Brothomstates will prove to be a stunning artist, however, if he can continue to build on his influences that he so obviously draws from, and works to synthesize them into something greater than their parts, which he does adequately on Claro.

 Drowned in Sound - Reviews - Album - Brothomstates   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
The latest in the line of exports from the Nordic nations is Brothomstates, aka 23-year-old Finn, Lassi Nikko, who, just like his aforementioned compatriots, makes ear-destroying, headache-inducing, violence-provoking noise for a living.
Brothomstates’ first new material since the dislocated ‘Qtio EP’ earlier this year is occasionally mellow, frequently fractious, and always keen to wrong-foot the listener.
Listening to this record, it’s only sensible to conclude that, while melodies may sometimes be all well and good, you just can’t beat the sound of a modular synth having a fight with what appears to be a runaway steam-hammer.

 Brothomstates: Claro - PopMatters Music Review
By now, with the huge influx of homegrown computer music made by adolescent boys in suburban homes across America, much experimental music sounds, for the most part, surprisingly similar.
Groups like Autechre, Plaid, and Boards of Canada have cornered the more "mainstream" experimental market with their innovative and more groundbreaking works, so it's up to relatively lesser-knowns like Lassi Nikko (who records as Brothomstates) to continue to push the boundaries.
Well, no boundaries are being pushed with his latest release, Claro, on the granddaddy of IDM, Warp Records.

 Drowned in Sound - Reviews - Ep - Brothomstates   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
Brothomstates is the name under which Finland’s Lassi Nikko produces the sort of mashed-up electronica which will sit nicely in the stable alongside the new Squarepusher and Autechre LPs and the forthcoming Aphex Twin material.
These six tracks offer enough quality to suggest that the name of Brothomstates may very soon be spoken of in the same terms as the label’s more established talents.
Listened too loud enough, the EP’s stand-out track, ‘Vleade’, has the ability to melt ears in the way that all good techno should, wearing its listener down by scrubbing away like a piece of sandpaper.

There's a bit of a dub element to both tracks with some tasty midrange-heavy brothomStates delay which is nothing new to his work, but is a bit more prominent here.
Both seem a bit more dynamic than his earlier stuff, at least in the sense that they both build up to a climax, and a nice juicy climax at that in both cases.

Having achieved almost legendary status in the demoscenes of Finland and Russia with his unique brand of organic-electronica, Brothomstates (aka 23yr old Lassi Nikko from Suomi, Finland) is the latest signing to Warp Records.
A former ‘tracking’* musician, Lassi uses midi and modular synths to create a distinct sound in which natural sonic elements are juxtaposed against a steady bass with rhythmic and sometimes manic percussion building throughout….
Unfortunately brothomstates had to cancel his set @ Mother on Friday.

 MISCREAT >> REVIEW - BROTHOMSTATES
‘Claro’ is the debut album from new Warp signing Brothomstates, aka Lassi Nikko.
The music is not dissimilar to Funkstorung or Jega, and there are clear Black Dog influences, with much of the music revolving around delicate melodies and warm atmospherics.
Given that ‘Claro’ is Brothomstate’s first outing, they are definitely a name to keep an eye on.

 BROTHOMSTATES - Claro
With his Brothomstates alter ego, the Finn has already triggered some interest in his native country.
Despite a lingering feeling of slight minimalism, the structural backbone of Claro is rather complex, evoking as much Plaid (Brothomstates Ixpen) as the metallic constructions of Spooky’s Found Sound (Kava, Mr.
It is however surprising to see Warp, who have got us used to more exiting releases, being associated with this rather unimaginative record.

Meanwhile, the excellent "In" unleashes a flurry of shrill, see-sawing acid sounds over a slow, elephantine boom of distorted sub-bass, while the moment in "Kava" where the mutant deck scratchdown kicks in over the ethereal, spy-film synth is well-judged enough for any techno trainspotter to forgive Nikko for his light-fingered antics.
I'd say Brothomstates are good at thinking "that's enough, let's not fiddle with that any more" leaving us with something fascinatingly uncomplicated.

Nuovo contratto per la Warp, questa volta firmato col finlandese Lassi Nikko (classe 1979).
Presentandosi sotto le vesti di Brothomstates, ha conquistato l'attenzione degli addetti ai lavori in terra natale, spingendosi fino in territorio sovietico, ed arrivando a pubblicare il suo esordio intitolato 'Claro'.
Il vago sapore new age della prima traccia 'In', si stempera per lasciar posto a notevoli intarsi sonori dall'aspetto minimal techno nell'ottima 'Brothomstates ixpen' oppure a dilatazioni di semplici idee pop ('Kava').

 brothomstates, claro
Lassi Nikko returns to Warp with his debut full-length following the Qtio EP released last month.
Rather than emulating the sounds of his heroes, Lassi skillfully fuses both into a crisp and crunchy, yet almost dancey variant of electronic listening music — as in the post-house sprawl of ‘Brothomstates Ipxn’ or the appocalyptic samba-esque calypso of ‘-’.
The LP closes with standout track ‘Viimo’ - for which Brothom draws on the sounds of Arovane with a killer 8 minute trawl through the lushest of melodies and the crispest of percussive rumbles.
