Luomo is a moniker of Sasu Ripatti (b.1976), a prolific Finnish house producer, who also creates music as Conoco, Sistol, Uusitalo, and most recognizably Vladislav Delay.

Luomo is one of the pioneers of microhouse. On his records he combines minimal, ‘click’ sounds with deep, dubby, hypnotic basslines layered over an ambient background to give a slick, warm feeling heightened by dreamy and airy vocals. The songs, usually stretched up to 10 minutes or more, feature lots of improvisation.

Luomo debuted on Force Tracks with two 12’’ followed by a powerful LP, Vocalcity (2000), a cornerstone of deep house/microhouse music. The follow-up, The Present Lover (2003) was somewhat more of an accessible record, which gained him further popularity and acclaim from both fans and critics of electronic music.

Sasu has set up his own record company - Huume Recordings, on which he releases some of his most recent music.
