It goes without saying that electronic dance music (EDM) has seen a steady rise in popularity over the years. No longer exclusive to dance clubs and rave parties, EDM has entered the mainstream. The ease of access and affordability of technology related to music production these days has a lot of people aspiring to become superstar DJs/producers off the strength of their home-brewed remixes and records. This has led to an over-saturated scene with quantity overcoming quality.
One of the few who has risen above this overcrowded crop is Lenno, a 16 year old DJ/producer from Espoo, Finland. This kid is the definition of a prodigy. His work is pure magic. Despite still being a teen, Lenno already produces highly complex, massive records with layers upon layers of synths, and dribbles of funky goodness. This guy is poised to take over clubs all over the world, having already played esteemed shows in New York alongside Araabmuzik, Gotye, and The Knocks, and creating radio mixes for the acclaimed Ministry of Sound.
