SANTERI LAUREN,
keyboard, saxophone

 

INTRODUCED BY KALLE MARTTILA

As we know by the proverb, the noble race of the keyboardists would have preferred to be guitarists. However, the saying doesn’t hold true with Santeri; this keyboard wizard is proud of what he’s doing, and for reason. Having mostly played the classical piano, Santeri, along with his brand new Korg TR, has found the modern sound Piecemaker needs. Given the fact that Santeri plays also the saxophone, we have found it useful too in our music, because we like to think our music as a free style of music that isn’t restricted by boundaries of different genres.
    As a guy Santeri is the one to keep realities in mind. Even though he likes to have daydreams of all kinds of funny possibilities we might face, when taken seriously, his attitude is closer to pessimistic that optimistic, which is good when trying to live up to the realities of the today’s unscrupulous business world.
