MARZI x SINIKOSKI

I love every detail of this project I photographed for Marzi Nyman and Kaskelotti Records. It’s a fantastic album by Marzi but also a beautiful photo diary. So if you want to buy a photo book by me you can start with this one – and the music will be included ? Love & support by Hyyrysjussi, Graphic design is by Jussi Karjalainen, Photos & Photo Concept Design by me.

BREAKING NEWS FROM PLANET WÖYH!

Aki-Pekka Sinikoski, WÖYH!, Dwzyrek

Aki-Pekka Sinikoski, WÖYH!, Dwzyrek, working in Iceland

Last week was ”something else” for me and and my Superkasi fellow Jussi Karjalainen. We had some epic moments while working in Iceland for WÖYH!’s forthcoming album. During last week I shot all the album art works, promo photos and even the music video for them. –O’boy, the Icelandic weather was quite something: rain, heavy snowstorms, and the hardest wind I have ever experienced. And YES, we still managed to shoot in all of those weather conditions.

I would definitely like to thank WÖYH!’s band members Jussi Hyyrynen (YUP) and Antti ”Hyrde” Hyyrynen (Stam1na) for their super high work ethic. They didn’t complain even when we were shooting on the shore line when it was raining iced water while the wind was blowing more than 22 meter/second and the windflaws reached 37 meter/second. In that weather there was such strong emotions in the air that probably even Joukko Turkka would have been proud of us.

We can start with the cover photos I took for the WÖYH!’s next album (Dwzyrek) and to their first single (Kamppailu merellä). The ”Hemingwayish” making of photo is taken by Jussi. More stuff coming soon, so stay tuned.

I wish you a lot of sunshine, a mug full of good coffee and a super good day!

XXX, Peki Sinikoski

I made the album art works for the new the Scenes album called Beige. My starting point for Beige’s art work with the concept of digital errors was a quote by David Foster Wallace: ”Pay close attention to the most tedious thing you can find (tax returns, televised golf) and. In waves. A boredom like you’ve never known will wash over you and just about kill you. Ride these out. And it’s like stepping from black and white into color.”
