the finns from new judas are back with a new release to convince you all to believe the hype. this time pets on prozac meets obi blanche on a split 12 where tropical beats meets gypsy tech. pets on prozac hailing from helsinki, finland knows how to turn nocturnal melancholy into tropical psyche house. starting out as a noisy punk techno band back in 2005 the set up was a trio of handsome men all bringing a taste of their own into a solid blend. after getting their debut single out on uk label house cat recordings they quickly earned their fifteen minutes of nme fame and got recognition on the blog roll. obi blanche, the man behind the twitchin and grindin beat music he himself has dubbed hobo-tech has come a long way to greet you. the tech-savvy finn has travelled a winding road of differnt sounds from his position as a guitar vendor in the rural viking midlands to his current studio chair in his new haven berlin. starting out with a technics 1200 turntable and a numark mixer he began to produce hip hop beats in his teens, smoothly progressed via mod to idm and onwards to produce his nowadays sweaty hifi vs. analog electro mosh
