[ówt krì] is the main creative project for Kenneth K., a Helsinki-­based self­taught sound artist. His first digital release came out in 2006, and the flow of music has kept steady ever since. During the first years, [ówt krì] created and released a number of online­ and CD-R releases, and took part on a multitude of compilations. The year 2013 took the project a giant leap further. Alrealon Musique published [ówt krì]'s debut CD­release "The New Seed", which introduced the project to much wider attention and appreciation than before. The snowball kept on rolling and growing, and already during 2014 Kenneth K. played his debut live show as [ówt krì] in Finland, and a couple of shows on the east coast of the US. The smaller­scale releases of 2014 (on tape and digitally) showed the artist pushing the boundaries of his creative expression, and demonstrated that his creative hunger was far from satisfied. Some more shows followed, including a sound exhibition in LéSPACE, Helsinki. This didn't keep Kenneth K. from recording as well, and it was already during late 2015 that[ówt krì]'s second CD ­album became reality. The album called "Pilgrimage" was published on Erototox Decodings in beautiful digipak packaging. As icing on the cake, the album's soundscapes were perfected by the mastering of Dan Swanö, the artist's long- time musical hero. The story is long from over....
