10/27/2009 THE RASMUS GOES BACK TO SCHOOL...

The Rasmus celebrates their 15th anniversary by playing a gig in the gym hall of Suutarila school in Helsinki on 23rd November. The venue is the same where the band first started their career in 1994 in the school's Christmas Party.

Because of the limited capacity of the venue, the event is for invited guests only. The audience consists of a group of old class mates of The Rasmus members, some of the present pupils of Suutarilaschool and the winners of a special contest run by Irc-Galleria. Irc-Galleria will also broadcast the whole concert as a live stream world wide. Viewing the stream does not require registration to the service.


IRC-Galleria is one of the largest social networking websites in Finland with over 800 000 weekly users.


The event is implemented together with Sulake (the administrative corporation of IRC-Galleria) and Mikkeli University Of Applied Sciences. The multi-camera production is provided by Mikpolis Oy.

04/27/2009 Message from the band concerning the cancellation of the Mexico show

Hello,

We are very sorry we had to cancel the show in Mexico City, at the Auditorium Nacionales, after the outbreak of swine influenza. There was a kind of panic spread in the city over the last days and our thoughts now go to all people suffering from the effects of this dangerous influenza.

It was also sad on our part, as all preparations had been made to make a great show and we had been waiting for that date for a long time, since we have such an enormous support from the fans in Mexico City.

We are now in Guadalajara and everyone in The Rasmus is well, the shows are going well and we are enjoying the Mexican hospitality.

We also hope that we can make another show in Mexico City later..

Eero Heinonen, basist of The Rasmus

12/04/2008 LAURI FROM THE RASMUS COMPOSES MOVIE SCORE

The Rasmus’ Lauri Ylönen has fulfilled one of his life long dreams by writing the score to a new Finnish movie called Blackout. Blackout is a psychological thriller about a man who suffers from amnesia. He wakes from a long coma to find someone has fired a nail into his head with a nail gun. He then begins to trace the events leading up to the trauma. The movie stars popular Finnish actor Petteri Summanen.

“I always wanted to compose a movie score. I read the manuscript and the melodies started to play in my head. Basically I have classical training in music and the themes came alive easily.

I sat down by the piano, put my fingers on the keys and listened to where I should move my hands next”, summarises Lauri.

The theme song of the movie, “Tide”, is performed by debut artist Belle Who.

“She is a very talented indie pop artist from Helsinki and the latest signing on Dynasty Recordings. I have worked on her album for most of this year as I’m the executive producer,” says Lauri. Belle Who’s debut album will be released early in 2009.

The Blackout soundtrack is a Dynasty Recordings release and it’s distributed by Playground Music Finland. Release date is the 17th of December. Blackout has its premiere on the 26th of December in Finland.
