Sound Of RELS biography
Sound Of R.E.L.S. featured several female vocalists : Suzie Aldabbaghin, then Amina Hietikko. Amina had earlier been a member of the dancebands Pumpa På and Press Twice. R.E.L.S. (Redford, Eagle, Lane & Stoneman) is a successful production team based in the city of Turku, Finland. Sound Of R.E.L.S. in turn is the band put together by the producers mentioned above. Their music has many flavours in it : hip hop, funk and eurodance with a soulful twist. Still the vocals of Suzie and Ressu Redford are distinctly R & B. Add solid production to this and you pretty much get the whole picture of Sound Of R.E.L.S. ! The self-titled first album Sound Of R.E.L.S., released late October 1995, went gold in no time and had four Top Ten hits in Finland. All five singles released from the album did also incredibly well on the Dance Charts and four of them (Love Is The Powa!, Raising My Family, Ee-Lie-Loe-Lie and Feel The Groove) have been on many hit compilations around the globe. The new album Crazy Music was released in Finland November 18th, 1996. The first single All The Best Girls entered the official Top 20 single chart at # 4 (staying on the chart for 6 consecutive weeks) and the Finnish Dance Chart at # 20 (highest position # 11, current position after 10 weeks # 44). All The Best Girls also appeared on the Scandinavian Dance Chart. It was also playlisted on all the most important radios in Finland : Radiomafia (National Broadcasting Company), NRJ Energy and Kiss FM. The second single from the album, title song Crazy Music was released as a follow up single December, 9th 1996. As All The Best Girls also Crazy Music entered the Finnish Dance Chart at # 15 and is currently holding position # 6 after 3 weeks on the chart. All the above mentioned radios (Radiomafia, KISS FM and NRJ Energy) put Crazy Music on powerplay and its video was on high rotation on Finnish TV-channels. Sound Of R.E.L.S. certainly knows what to do in the studio, but they love to perform live as well. In just two years the band has done 100 live shows all over Finland and at the moment they have two to three gigs each week. Veijo (Vekke) Mäki a.k.a Vinni Lane is still working with his own studio company Go Records. He is also a part owner in the record company MTG (Musiikintuottajat Group) where he is production manager with the responsibilty for mixing and follow-up of the discs.
