Born in Helsinki in 2006, K‑X‑P is led by Timo Kaukolampi on electronics, guitar and vocals, with Tomi Leppänen and Tatu Rönkkö on drums alongside a broader ensemble of collaborators. Their roots trace back through Finnish scenes and other projects such as Op:l Bastards and Aavikko, yet here they have distilled a music of its own — one where electronics, relentless rhythms and voice converge into something uncommonly alive.

Press have noted the group’s refusal of tidy labels: motorik rhythms, analogue textures, and rhythmic insistence surface without hierarchy. Music here feels persistent, not declarative — a field to inhabit rather than a point to reach.

Live, K‑X‑P’s performances are immersive and insistent. Primitive drums and electronic pulses move in hypnotic cycles; voices — at times a scream, at times a hum — thread through the beat. The visuals are not merely backdrop but part of the sensory field, a companion to the music’s pressure and clarity.

Each moment unfolds without urgency, yet accumulates into a momentum all its own.
