Jimi Tenor

The group was inspired by the Italian futurist Luigi Russolo, Japanese drumming ensembles and industrial noise music.

Having disbanded Jimi Tenor And His Shamans, the artist embarked on a solo career in the early 1990s, recording his debut work "Sähkomies" on rudimentary equipment in a small New York apartment.

The album was released in 1994 on the Finnish imprint Sähko that also issued Tenor’s sophomore work "Europa" a year later, expanding on the ideas articulated on the first disc.

On the back of a game-changing performance at the Love Parade in Berlin, Jimi Tenor scored his first hit with "Take Me Baby", entering the charts and signing a deal with the seminal electronic label Warp Records.
