Rama biography

Rama is a Finnish project created by the producer Markku Raski from Köyliö (Finland). Project's name is made from his last name and first name's first syllabs. He bought his first material with the money earned during a summer job. He started gaining wome recognition when his first productions aired on Tapani Ripatti's radio show. In 1995; he signed a record deal with Blue Bubble and released a song called Crying Out as a compilation track only, on various samplers such as Energy dance.

Follow-up song was released as a single in 1996. Light My Fire featured the rapper Raymond Ebanks (who also took part to the Bomfunk MC's). Female vocalist and songwriter was Merja Raski, Markku's sister, who won a Finnish tango contest in 1993. The single stayed several weeks number one in Finnish Disco/Dance chart in 1996. The co-producers were Kaippa Kaivola and James Black (also known from the project like 3rd Nation).

Markku Raski teamed up with Juha Sahlstein to produce a eurotrance project called Endorfin.

2012 : Markku Raski released on Rama's Youtube-channel a demo made with the same studio set-up as the original Light My Fire during the era 1995–1996. The demo consisted of Finnish and international traditional christmas hymnes and carols produced in Eurodance-style as a medley with lots of warmth and joy of christmas time in mind. Nowaydas Markku, as a car and vehicle enthusiast, has his own company "Automodels" to sell and distribute model cars and other scale-model vehicles worldwide. This video with "Dance Christmas"-medley was made to promote the Christmas sales.
