What was the last great night out you had? I went out on Helsinki Cruising night, armed with a video camera to get some raw material for the next video. Muscle cars roasting rubber: very stupid and mucho fun. Look into your crystal ball.What’s the best thing to happen in the next 12 months? George W. comes out of the closet wearing "smile if you're gay" t-shirt and declaring that "from now on there will be no more wars". Best and worst things about living in Helsinki? Some of the world's biggest ferries run between Helsinki and Stockholm: it's poor man's Ibiza all year around. Who or what are you allergic to? Selfishness in all its forms. Yuck! You’ve got one bullet.Who’s it for? I hate guns so I'm definitely not giving it away. Is your glass half full or half empty? Depends entirely on the drink. Gimme something good and the glass keeps having room for more! Which band makes you leave the room at speed? Pepe Deluxé. Rather typical for a Finnish guy, I usually get very embarrassed when I hear someone playing our music. This can be slightly problematic, especially when that happens during our gigs. What is your favourite movie moment? The World's Fastest Indian, pretty much all the way thru. If there ever was a movie that makes you feel good about life, this is it. What’s your favourite fun fair ride? Ghost train. I usually keep my eyes closed and let the person sitting next to me describe the monsters. My imagination can scare me more than anything else. Spare Time Machine is on Catskills Psyche-beat fetishists Pepe Deluxé’s Spare Time Machine is the strangest new album this year. To celebrate we invited Jari Solo aka James Spectrum to warm his toes on the Swell Grill. THE GRILL Swell Music – Top tips for the independent ear
