JNKS (FIN)


Main criterions for Jnks' sets are fast tempo, beautiful female vocals, catchy melodies, happiness, aggressive mixing and an energetic stage show. If he is not behind decks, Jnks can be found on the dance floor raving like a maniac!
The future will hopefully bring a lot of positive things for this young and energetic deejay!
Recently Jnks has joined in FINRG Recordings and plays under FINRG label.

Olli Riiho alias Jnks [FINRG, RAD, PaineRecords] was born 1988 in Kerava, Finland and is currently living in Riihimäki. He started listening to electronic music already at the age of 10. Through listening to some mainstream eurodance he discovered one of Proteus' mixtapes, which made a great influence on the young boy and eventually took him into the faster & harder edge of electronic dance-music.
After a few months of getting familiar with different genres he accidentally came across a track called "Angel Eyes" by Brisk&Ham. As a happy and energetic person, 175BPM Happy Hardcore was tailor-made for him! After buying his first equipment second hand from Germany he began training intensively. A few months later the first mixtape, 'Blue', was born.
After some more intensive training he began playing some happier sounds at small private parties. In November 2005 the Hard Dance internet radio-channel SonicRadio.nl gave him a chance to host his own weekly show. The first episode was broadcast on 17.11.2005. In December of 2005 Jnks performed his first bigger club gig in Gloria (Helsinki) at the Rave Against Drugs 3 - event.
