A monument of Finnish War and me in Pernaja (in summer 2005) |

Sweet Equals Suffer is finally completed, actually I've finished it in early september. After basictracks I've added for
a background some buzzing/humming sceneries and backing vocals for chorus. In verses vocals were sang in two different
sessions, original higher tone with echoes and lower tone flavoured with distortion. In chorus is also twisted and edited
chords played in string-sound.
That's all folks, I'll keep on working, stay tuned! May 27th 2005

Secondly another negative issues: I'd put our tracks to mikseri.net in January. Tracks have been downloadable there about 3 months before I found out that they're disappeared somewhere out of there. I didn't remove them and I'd also followed the rules of this site. I'd sent (twice) feedback with this incident and waited for an answer (until this day they didn't answer to me). Fault is not mine, if you didn't have Division Nature for your pleasure of listening. I hope that this thing is getting clear and returns for a condition what it was... And something about hockey: Game continues at higher lever in my hometown after very complicated situations, our goaltender Nurminen (who's paying his debt for honour) gave a hand for a team and help us in economical way. While I'm writing this World Championships are over by Finland's team. Success was quite a poor and the final result was that Russia beats us in penaltyshots. Maybe the next year we have all of our stars in rink and we don't have to play with 'substitutes'... February 24th 2005
That microphone what I've tested earlier has showed me that's useful for recordings. It's not Shure SM-58, but it lasts
for Dropper's works with vocals.
And in the end as we all know, made our living easier with hockey: the future of local team is still in the shadows and bankruptcy is not so far away. I have to see one game more at least, if it's going to be the last game in highest level in this town for a long time. A year ago there were same kind of indistinct situation and this is not a good advertisement for my hometown. But what you can do, if business is going with bad luck.. Games are still going surprising very well when we remembered the material of team that's very thin (or perhaps it's nonexistent). Bigger losses appeared in the later part of season. One excuse for that is cancelled season in NHL that effected here with few of players who came here to play because of it. That makes some opposite teams little bit a stronger than before. When I write this 'our team' have 6 games left and after that season's over. There's so small work to do and we struggle over that in spite of our situation... Today there is nothing else to say to you than we're moving towards spring and soon there is songs to listen... January 20th 2005
And now those serious topics have to be removed by prettier topics and that means music. Previously there were songs of Division Nature downloadable on internet in two different sites, now they are available at same place. There is nothing else than download tracks in: www.mikseri.net/division_nature. Only you can do is put some heat on your mousebuttons... For demo of Dropper I have tested microphone that hung in my warehouse and I think that I could record vocals by that.
It needs some filtering that I can see extravoices disappear. Those are sounds of breathing and voices like that.
And finally some relief and that means chewing around hockeygames. Our local team (I'm supporting it, of course) is struggling with problems (and the biggest one is economical issues), playing is still fighting kind and my own estimate is that the results are good or even excellent by 90%, recognizing the lack of material. Team has reached same amount of points as last winter and there is still about 20 games to play. Future is still dark, but we can hope for the best... P.S. REMEMBER TO DOWNLOAD DN-TRACKS FROM MIKSERI.NET ;)
