Mikko! Twelve years ago, when I was a teenage-girl, I was in love with you xD Please don't blame me... You're a fantastic piano player. I am so glad to be able to hear your keyboards in Symfonia and other bands today. Please keep up the good work!
mikko , after all these years of being a big fan of you ,I NEVER THOUGHT YOUR VOICE IS THAT LOW :| i always imagined that your voice is highter , since on the Sonata arctica website says that you did backing vocals on the songs of silence live album, anyway keep up the good work ! hope to meet you someday , i never had a keyboard teacher:(
Omg, he has so many emotions on his face, he is kinesthetic apparently? Also his facial expressions are so alike to modern humanoid robots with a flexile face, when they at the same time try to reflect a bunch of emotions !! Wow!!And a very nice deep voice...
Mikko's compositions & technical playing are almost unrivaled today. A true underdog in the metal keyboard scene. Everyone's talking about Ruddess, Warmen, Johannson, etc.. but, it's something about this man's harmonies that keep bringing me back to his bands. I think Symphonia is meh.. but Mikko turns them from meh to :O lol imo
A little late for a reply but I've found so little about Mikko but I've seen him as the origin of many incredible albums, often to be replaced by Jens Johannson or some one else by the next album. I wonder what causes his "short lived" life in projects? Maybe he just gets bored?
You should read the sonata arctica book. Apparently he had alcohol problems and became a christian and since the sonata arctica lifestyle at the time with lots of parties and drinking did not fit his worldview so he decided to leave sonata arctica. I guess the so called sinful metal lifestyle is the reason he only does small projects and concerts. I guess the biggest thing he did after leaving sonata was playing with luca turilli's rhapsody since he and the rest of sonata became great friends with them when they toured together.
lol this interview always makes me laugh , mikko is quite unusual here , maybe its because hes being interviewed by some disembodied consciousness ball of fire, with swirling blocks around it . Far out
Me encanta este loco, parece sacado de una pelicula de vampiros, el look, la voz, hasta el tic le queda bien... mas dark imposible !!

Mikko's fan from Indonesia here. Love the Mehida works. I hope it will continue somehow.
Mikko, you are so awesome! I hope I get a chance to meet you, which is a longshot since I live in central USA.
