FUTURE ARK

/EN/

Two albums coming in 2023… : ) For Spanish people Tero is a bit of a strange name so I often just say that my name is Teo. I’ve kind of started to like this pseudonym so I thought it could be a good name for this intimate and meditative, yet powerful RnB/Downtempo track. Featuring deep 808s and bright analogue synthesizers in addition to trap-like drum fills filled with soul it’s an instrumental track where it feels as if its sounds, melodies and chord progressions express something that words could never do. Future Ark is Tero Heikkinen, a composer, producer and mixing engineer from Helsinki living in Seville. He has published two EPs: Joy (Sofa Tunes 2017) and John (Leonora 2020) and an album: Angelonia (WeAreWolves Records 2021). His latest single ‘Discotrotter’ (Alakulttuuritalo 2021) was featured on playlists curated by The Line of Best Fit, Ground Control Madrid and dlso.it as well as being powerplayed on Finland’s top radio station Radio Helsinki and it also got some spins on Spanish Radio 3. Apart from Future Ark, Tero has played synthesizers in Kiko Veneno’s band. As a producer he has worked with artists like Quentin Gas, Palo Alto, Tatin Muriel and Discoteca Fatale and he has composed music for short films, documentaries and advertisements. He is one half of Kindata who are at the moment preparing their sophomore album.
