Our first synth we bought a couple of years ago. Yes, some of those, since '94, both at the parties of our own and at those organised by some friends of ours. Though the only party that all three members have been involved in organising has been Syy, an event of a small scale at Tampere's local Ahaa theatre in autumn '96. The show consisted, alongside of music, of poetry recitation. Well, not any single tracks, but let's say, those 20 first Harthouse UK releases were in heavy rotation those days, also the records of Rising High label.
Some people are still into that stuff but our own taste of music has changed since then.
Actually Arsenal is only one of our projects. In fact, the name has been used only once when we had a live PA at the Voyage rave. We can't really give any particular names since there are so many of them. On the other hand, it can't really be said what the greatest influences on our sound have been since our stuff is so varied. The styles of our music go from one end to the other, from intelligent listening rhythms to harder and more minimalistic Detroit tracks.
