A little video I did the other evening, sitting at home by my piano and playing the new single - Love Comes Round! Hope you enjoy this exclusive acoustic version as well!

Love Comes to Beatport

I usually post a Beatport player whenever there's a new release (as I like the look and interactivity of it). This time there was some intial trouble finding the release on Beatport, but they've apparently solved that now, so here goes.

Ernesto: LOVE COMES ROUND (Rakkaus03)

Yes! I'm so excited! Today is the release of my first single on my own label. Today is the releasedate of ERNESTO: LOVE COMES ROUND. Get it now, on iTunes, Beatport, or where ever you like!

Proudly presenting my new collaboration with my dear friend Andreas Saag (aka Swell Session, and the artist formerly known as Stateless) on Freerange Records! Check out our new song - and Andreas brilliant "People Say" as well off course!

Much listening pleasure to all of you!

Make money... or maybe no?

In order to stay true to my recommendations I'm working to get the first Rakkaus release up on Spotify. However, as it probably well established by now, people don't actually make any kind of reasonable living off of Spotify. Below is a link to a pretty interesting article, stating that in order to make the equivalent of the US minimum wage in a month, your song would have to be played 4,5 million times on Spotify that month, to generate the equivalent revenue. For some releases however, I would earn both the "label" and "artist" revenue; it probably only would take me 3,5 million plays. :)

So basically, if you - like me - live in an industrial country and happen to like the music we're putting out on Rakkaus: Please muster the 4 euros/dollars/pounds to buy the first release. You may off course listen with Spotify (as soon as the people at Spotify choose to publish the tracks me and my distributor has in fact already supplied them with) as well or as a substitute. But at least now you know the score.

Sincerely yours

Jonatan

Rakkaus Records Premieer!

Yes, it's finally time for the first Rakkaus Records release! After more than a year in the works, things have finally been set up, put into a sequence of releases and processed through the proper systems in order to reach you a finished digital product!

The first release on the label is PINKU VÄÄTY: LILI & SUSHI EP.

This four track EP ranges from the glitchy, deep and playful Maguro Kara Age and Päivärinta, onto some more spacious lush electronica in Terminal Building, on still to end in something that's a little bit more of a mix of both the bass-heavy components and the electronica vibe.

You'll find it at iTunes or Beatport (and about 80 other shops and digital delivery systems).

I wish you all the best,

and that this release - and the many more that will follow - will find you well!
