Exogenic Records

These guys produce a sound so unique and underground, even the fringe of the music society knows little about them. I found them by chance, a typo on a discogs search. Soon I was a loyal follower.

  • Founder: Jacob Ehrnrooth (1996)
  • Location: Finland
  • Label Relations: Indie Label; Sub-labels: Exogenic Breaks, Terra Records, XO Records
  • Genre: Psychedelic Goa Trance, Funky Forest Trance, Psychedelic Breaks, Psybient
  • Discography
  • Official Webpage
  • Myspace
  • Online Shops: Psyshop, Saikosounds

Some of the more interesting albums they have produced include Eraser vs. Yöjalka - Tarinat and Haltya - Electric Help Elves. This sound, I have noticed, is very polarized at first glance: either you love it or hate it. Just like jazz, this is the kind of music that you need to know a little about to appreciate its nuances.

The setting should be an outdoor party. In Finland, that would be during the summer months in a forest where the imagination can soar without the limits of day-to-day living.
