After studying classical instruments and playing in bands (not forgetting going to psy parties since 1995), Eraser and Yöjalka started making music together in summer 2000. Since the beginning they have been interested in making innovative and always forward going psytrance, sucking influences from heavy, funk, classical and electronic music. 

It was the summer of the year 2000 when the spaceship of Eraser vs Yöjalka was launched to reach even the most faraway dimensions of the Finnish psychedelic trance music.They follow the tradition of Suomi sound with their own distinct style taking influences from heavy metal, funk, classical and various genres of electronic music.

Both the members of the duo have a background in classical music, which transformed in their teens into playing in punk bands and doing electronic music projects. Today you can hear all of that melting together in the wild and weird sound of Eraser vs Yöjalka which is born from the forest parties and the early Goa trance scene in Finland.

Eraser vs Yöjalka released their first tracks on Exogenic in the form of Eraser vs Yöjalka EP in 2001. First releases were uplifting crazy trance music and its creation involved a lot of traveling by train as Yöjalka lived in the small city of Pori and Eraser in Helsinki. After the first EP Eraser vs Yöjalka has released two long play albums on Exogenic, Round 1 and Tarinat. In these releases they say the music is much more in accordance to the general laws of psychedelic trance music without forgetting the ballyhooing soundscapes of Finnish forest sound.

Eraser vs Yöjalka are known to launch their spaceship also in live gigs to send their audiences to the orbits of their musical universe created by computerization, percussive elements and effect modules. Sometimes they flavor their performances with an electric guitar as well. Year 2006 has been a very busy year for the duo as they have already played in Russia, Israel, Turkey, Slovak Republic, Ukraine and Denmark.

Eraser vs Yöjalka is currently touring and making new tracks, so stay tuned!
