One industry. Both sides.
Raven combines selective artist management with specialist legal and commercial expertise across music, entertainment and the creative industries. Raven works with artists, managers, labels and other industry professionals who need experienced representation, commercially informed legal support, or both.
Manager and lawyer
I have both a legal and a music industry background. I read contracts with a lawyer's eye, and I know from experience what a single clause can mean for an artist's career years down the line. I have worked in the music industry since 2011, at a record label, in live production, at Teosto and as an artist manager. For example, I was part of the team behind two Nightwish albums and a world tour of nearly 70 shows.

I have worked in the music industry for fifteen years, at record labels, in live production, as an agent, at the Finnish Copyright Society Teosto and as an artist manager. I have worked on numerous releases, tours and concerts, copyright matters, and licensing and recording agreements, from the negotiation stage to practical challenges. I have collaborated with many Finnish and international artists, festivals, record labels and concert promoters.
Then I studied law. When I began my Master of Laws at the University of Helsinki in 2021, recording, performance, licensing and other industry agreements had long been familiar in practice, and so were the unwritten rules of the business, the kind you only learn by working. My studies strengthened and supported what I had learned in practice. I graduated in 2026 alongside my work, and my studies included an exchange year at the University of Edinburgh.
I have both a legal and a music industry background. I can read a contract with a legal eye, and I know from experience what a single clause can mean for an artist's career years down the line.

aino@ravenmanagement.fiPersonal data we process
Contact details and messages you send by email, such as your name, email address and message. Client and engagement information, including contact details, agreements, correspondence, recordings and other documents you provide, and invoicing details. Where an engagement involves personal data of artists or other third parties, it is processed only to carry out that engagement. Most of this data comes from you or the people you represent. Some may come from other parties to an engagement or from publicly available sources.
Purposes and legal bases
Personal data is processed to reply to enquiries and prepare engagements (legitimate interests, or steps taken at your request before a contract), to carry out engagements (contract), to keep accounts and issue invoices (legal obligation), and to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (legitimate interests). Raven applies the EU General Data Protection Regulation and, where relevant, the UK GDPR.
This website
The website does not use analytics or advertising cookies. Your language choice is stored in your browser on your own device and is not sent to Raven. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, so your IP address is transmitted to Google when the page loads. The website has no contact form. Messages reach Raven only by email.
Recipients and processors
Email is provided by Microsoft (Outlook). Raven also uses service providers for accounting, invoicing and file storage as needed. External advisers receive personal data only as agreed with you. Personal data is not sold. It is disclosed to others only with your consent, where the law requires it, or to protect legal rights.
Transfers outside the EEA and the UK
Some providers, such as Microsoft and Google, may process data outside the EEA and the UK. Where they do, transfers rely on an adequacy decision, standard contractual clauses or another safeguard permitted by law.
Retention
Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement are deleted within three months of the last message. Engagement records are kept for the duration of the engagement and afterwards for as long as needed for legal claims and limitation periods. Accounting records are kept for the period required by law.
Security
Raven uses reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data. Confidentiality is also covered by the terms agreed with each client.
Your rights
You have the right to access your personal data and to have it corrected, erased or restricted, to object to processing, and to receive your data in a portable format, as the law provides. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. You may also ask which recipients your data has been shared with. To use these rights, contact Raven by email.
Right to complain
You may lodge a complaint with the Finnish Data Protection Ombudsman (tietosuojavaltuutettu) or, in the United Kingdom, with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
Automated decisions
Raven does not use automated decision-making or profiling.
Changes to this policy
Raven may update this policy. The current version is always available on this website.

Turmion Kätilöt
Photo: Susanna RaitamaaBiography
Turmion Kätilöt formed in 2003 and play disco metal, a genre they have made unmistakably their own: industrial heaviness, dance grooves and sharp hooks, sung in Finnish. The six-piece are known for a theatrical, chaotic live show, with gold and platinum records and Emma (Finnish Grammy) nominations behind them. They opened Nightwish's European arena tour in 2022. Their twelfth album, Resodance, came out on Nuclear Blast on 23 October 2026, followed the next day by the biggest headline show of their career at Helsinki Ice Hall. The band almost sold the arena out in advance, a first for a Finnish-language metal act. In February 2027 the disco hits the road across Europe, from Paris to Warsaw.
