Avanto

about

Alt+F4, aka Magellan Project, aka Avanto, consists of the two young finnish producers Joonas Hahmo and Matti Kotala. Before Matti and Joonas joined forces, both of them had already been active in the Finnish music scene for several years as producers as well as DJs. For Matti and Joonas making music is more than just using machines; it's about creating a vibe that takes the listeners on a journey. In the beginning of 2001 when Ferry Corsten came to Helsinki, the boys met and found out that they shared the same passion for electronic dance music and they had the same idea how tracks should be produced. So it was obvious that after this meeting Matti & Joonas created a new producer-team. Over the years they've gained more and better equipment to realize their ideas until they reached their nowadays massive studio. It was in 2003 when Drizzly Music signed their track "Dive Theme" for the new label Asgard Recordings. It is the theme song for Tampere´s Club Dive and has been played since the beginning of 2003 by the likes of Misja Helsloot and Black Hole Recording's DJs Ton TB & Cor Fjineman as well as Norway's DJ Stigma and Italy's Giorgio Ponticelli. In between producing several theme tracks for the biggest indoor-events in Finland such as Docklands and liQuid (Marco-V, Orkidea, Cosmicman), Joonas & Matti delivered several guestmixes for Giorgio Ponticelli's "Subtraxx Experience", a show on Digitally Imported, the biggest Internet electronic music radio station.
