- **Event Name**: Merzbow (JPN) 14.1.2026 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 14 Jan, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Merzbow (JPN) – January 14, 2026, Helsinki, Ääniwalli

The pioneer of experimental music, Masami Akita, better known as Merzbow, will perform in Finland for one night only – the exclusive show will take place at Ääniwalli in Helsinki on January 14, 2026.

Having released music since 1980, Merzbow is regarded as one of the most significant and influential figures in the global noise music scene.

Growing up surrounded by psychedelic and progressive rock as well as free jazz, Akita became interested in Dadaism and Surrealism during his student years – influences that led to the creation of a completely distinctive and rule-defying sound world. His work played a pivotal role in shaping the noise movement and has inspired numerous experimental musicians worldwide.

Merzbow is not only an artist but also an animal rights activist, whose ethical values are reflected in his art. Above all, however, he is a surprising and unpredictable performer – his live shows are grounded in experimentation, improvisation, and intense presence.

Metsäkirkko will open the evening for Merrzbow on January 14, 2026.

Metsäkirkko is an experimental music duo founded in 2017. Formed by Jesse Niemi and Pyry Ojala, the duo explores the relationship between humans and nature, as well as myths and inner worlds, through sound. Their expression is instinctive both on recordings and in live concerts. In their live performances, Metsäkirkko occasionally adopts an approach reminiscent of performance art. Each performance is unique and unfolds spontaneously in the moment.

DJ tyhjiø in the decks - shattering silence and expectations.
