Memnon is an experimental music duo of kantele player Eva Alkula and sound designer Ville Hyvönen.

Memnon examines interfaces and collisions between traditional instrument and modern design, classical training and modern electronics, academic and experimental music, compositions and sound design.

The Finnish kantele playing and sound tradition is taken to a new modern level by approaching it from totally different perspectives: memnon combines the unique Finnish sound of kantele with scandinavian electronic minimalism, and widens the classical kantele tradition to experimental sound landscapes.
