Double LP version. Atomin Paluu features the final studio recordings made under the name Pan Sonic (Mika Vainio & Ilpo Vaisanen). Recorded per their usual working methods at Mika's home studio in Berlin from 2005 to 2011 and subsequently edited into this album format by Mika in 2015. The film, Atomin Paluu (2015) is a Finnish production, created by Jussi Eerola and Mika Taanila, documents the building of the first nuclear power plant since the Chernobyl meltdown in 1986 - a project that fell foul of much bureaucratic wrangling and control which manifested itself in the need for over forty cuts of the film. Atomin Paluu, the soundtrack, shows Pan Sonic uniquely using selected third-party field recordings from filming at the building site. As the film's soundtrack, these recordings were also bound up in a complex series of delays in the release of the film. The pre-release screenings of the film it won the highly coveted 2015 Nordic Dox Award at the world renowned CPH:DOX festival in Copenhagen. The soundtrack itself brought the greatest recognition and went on to win Best Soundtrack at the Jussi Awards Festival (known as the Finland's Oscars). In typical Pan Sonic style neither member bothered to attend the awards to collect their statuettes.

Pan Sonic is Mika Vainio and Ilpo Väisänen. All hail the unsmiling Finns. "After this, Pan Sonic goes into deep freeze," says Vainio, in one of his more loquacious moments. Eleven tracks of their trademark warm, deep, muscular sound that acts as a personal trainer to your speaker cones. Gravitoni is their seventh son born as a duo since 1995. No live shows whatsoever are planned to celebrate their 15-year run at the forefront of expanding the electronic music scene (although Ilpo would still like to play in Africa someday soon). Comes with a 16-page booklet of photographs.

"This live set by Pan Sonic was recorded at the Garage in London on 5th of October. By then Pan Sonic had slim down to a duo: Mika Vainio, Ilpo Vaisanen and where still known as Panasonic. This is the 2nd offering on Jenny Divers, a new label dedicated to release a series of limited edition CD's, mostly from the artists live archive, in a unique generic stark minimalist package."
