olento the second album by mika vainio from 1996 together with metri is one of the seminal works for understanding mika vainio s core of work. here olento is reissued for the very first time available on vinyl.

kantamoinen is perhaps the most intimately beautiful yet little known lp in mika vainio s Ø canon, bridging the gap between his classic ‘90s minimal techno productions - compiled in the vital metri and olento collections - and the project’s subsequent turn to more ambient, kosmic and dub wise dimensions in the coolly brilliant oleva and konstellaatio albums.
