Over the years, Vainio collaborated with Bj\u00f6rk, Suicide\u2019s Alan Vega, drone icon Stephen O\u2019Malley and more.<\/p>\n<p>Artfully shot on 16mm by Jimi Tenor in 1995, S\u00e4hk\u00f6 The Movie &#8211; a title fans have given the film in the absence of any official one &#8211; is a suitably abstract portrayal of the singular label in its prime. Finnish artists featured include S\u00e4hk\u00f6 co-founder Tommi Gr\u00f6nlund, Mono Junk, Hertsi, IF\u00d6, and, of course, Mika Vainio himself.<\/p>\n<p>The film tracks the Finnish unit at work in the studio making tracks on their trademark custom-built analogue equipment, hand-pressing limited edition vinyl releases and their eardrum rupturing yet delicate live performances. Outside of a few select festival screenings and those who own a rare VHS edition released by Blast First Petite, hardly anyone has seen the 44-minute film but this hasn\u2019t stopped it attaining legendary status.<\/p>\n<p>Essential viewing for anyone with a passing interest in techno, industrial and experimental music underpinned by a restless DIY spirit.<\/p>\n<p>For more information and films by 4:3 visit &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/fourthree.boilerroom.tv\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/fourthree.boilerroom.tv\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6DOxApB8zWA?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mika Vainio\u2019s death in April 2017 sent shock waves rippling through the electronic music community.
