Other Power

Other Power is a label from Helsinki, Finland, founded in 2023. It operates as a sibling label to the internationally recognized We Jazz Records, and like it’s older sibling, is curated and designed by Matti Nives. Other Power strives to release uncompromising music without boundaries, operating outside of the jazz lineage where We Jazz finds its ground. The name of the label is an homage to two great artists in the history of Finnish electronic music and beyond, Pekka Airaksinen (1945–2019) and Perttu Häkkinen (1979–2018), who released Airaksinen's music on the compilation release Other Power. Other Power will release both new and archival music, connecting to its name and backstory by unearthing unheard gems from the vast archives of Pekka Airaksinen.
