Orkidea's “Dance of Life” Is Out Now!

He is a true ambassador of Pure Trance and an open-minded producer, fearlessly embracing the evolution of electronic dance music over the past 30 years. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of styles and artists, he has continually pushed boundaries. To celebrate this incredible career milestone as a DJ, he hosted a monumental event in Helsinki last year, delivering an unforgettable marathon set that symbolically lasted 30 hours. This remarkable display of commitment and passion underscores his deep dedication to the music.

Orkidea is celebrated for his signature blend of dreamy melodies, hypnotic beats, and smooth, seamless progressions. His journey began in the 90s when he organized illegal warehouse raves in Finland, where he and his team would play chilled, emotionally charged breakbeats as the sun rose. Orkidea often fuses those breakbeat samples, ethnic vocals, deep basslines, and synth riffs to create vast, immersive soundscapes. His unique style has been described by Above & Beyond as a "retrofuturistic journey," perfectly capturing the essence of his sound.

Pure Progressive Movement, which started with Rich Solarstone has just gained a brilliant new addition. If you've explored the latest In Search Of Sunrise 20 compilation you’ve likely come across Orkidea's captivating track “Dance Of Life,” selected by Solarstone. Initially created for this iconic 25-year compilation, the track has now been released as a standalone single. With its standout vocal hook, “Dance, Life, Control, Dreams, Let’s Go,” the track is a perfect example of Tapio’s signature style, with retro 90s percussion loops, delicate melodies, and flawless production. If you haven't yet, head over to your favorite streaming platform - “Dance Of Life” is now available everywhere.
