Dj Bunuel live at the OpenMic Podcast

Dj Bunuel live at the OpenMic Podcast

The upcoming live show of our podcast at the Helsinki Open Waves-HOW will be with the amazing Dj Bunuel

Dj Bunuel started playing records at his school party autumn 1977.

All these years he stayed curios and always looking in all kinds of marginals, not believing in musical, geographical or temporal categories,  but in pearls.
For him every song he plays is like giving a gift to the listener.
You can hear him on Yle Vega on weekly Lux on Sundays and on Yle Radio 1 on monthly Tunti vapaalla. Both shows are on Yle Areena for a month.
