LO18 is a fresh solo project by musician and studio engineer Kari Lounela, who lives in Tampere, Finland. As a member of UULU, a cultural cooperative of ethnomusicologists, he is involved in promoting Finnish folk music traditions and music cultures from around the world with the help of original instruments, songs, dances and games.

In his own time Lounela loves experimenting with soundscapes, music and instruments. For his own compositions he uses acoustic and electronic instruments as well as some strange and freaky devices he has built himself.

For the last few years he has been working on a project called Sounds of the Landscape, in which instruments communicate with sounds from nature, vehicles and machines.

His debut release, 'Huima', came out in November 2017.
