Pekka Airaksinen - Kandrasuryapradipa
Continuing my recent NWW List fun, there's Pekka Airaksinen-- and short note: if your eyes glaze over on a name like that, try typing it out or saying it a few times to help remember it-- anyhow, Airaksinen was a member of Finnish group The Sperm, but eventually struck out on his own with Buddhist-inspired solo work featuring drum machine and electronics. Kandrasuryapradipa is one of my favorite examples so far, and comes from his 1984 album "Buddhas of Golden Light."
