With his intriguing mixture of low-key beats, quirky samples, and unusual live instrumentation, Finnish producer Tomppabeats creates tracks that are difficult to define, but easy on the ears. A native of Helsinki, Tomi "Tomppabeats" Lahtinen began making music in his teens, citing the late Japanese DJ/producer Nujabes as a major inspiration. Rising quickly on the Vine platform, he found viral success with his whimsical tracks which he eventually compiled into the 37-track Harbor LP in the summer of 2016. Later that same year, Tomppabeats returned with Discography 2016, a seven-track EP that bore a more organic sound with many songs played live on ukulele, guitar, and piano. ~ Timothy Monger, Rovi
