Ever since its origin, RinneRadio has been about two things: Unexpectedness and change. These defining characteristics, especially the feeling of the latter, make it almost inconceivable to grasp that twenty years really have passed since the group's inception.

Wasn't it just a little while ago that composer and drummer Edward Vesala helped the band along by releasing its very first album? Didn't the groundbreaking disc 'Rok' just appear at the record stores? And how long has exactly passed since the collaborations with electronica mastermind Mika Vainio, DJ extraordinaire Jori Hulkkonen, or violin superstar Pekka Kuusisto?

When a band hits the two-decade mark, celebration is due. And oftentimes, a compilation album ensues. But RinneRadio wouldn't be RinneRadio if they didn't incorporate a twist into this institutionalized tradition as well. The method was original: A list of club and radio DJ's was compiled. They were then asked to put together their "dream RinneRadio album".

These selections were then used as the basis of this album - with a keen eye on the knowledge that the material will be presented in two separate categories. The working titles for these "set lists" were Side A(mbient) and Side B(eat) which gives a good idea of the grand design behind the finished product.

The twenty tracks represent the twenty years of work that a revolving cast of creative musicians, DJ's, producers, sound and light engineers, and movie directors has conjured up with saxophonist/clarinettist, main composer and bandleader Tapani Rinne

Ranging from the minimalist to the overblown, the music on this two-disc compilation retains a sense of wonder and proves that RinneRadio is still in perpetual motion and forever forging a path ahead. Wholly unexpectedly and constantly changing.
