Nemesis is a Finnish music group formed in Kokkola in 1987 by Ami Hassinen and Jyrki Kastman. In 1994 they released their debut album Xcelsior, the first Finnish electronic/ambient album to be released internationally. In 1996 Nemesis was commissioned by Finnish national radio YLE to create the long-form work Evolution, and from then on followed a series of critically acclaimed albums, as well as live concerts.

In 2001 the band was expanded with a third member, Joni Virtanen.

The band's music is inspired by astronomy, science fiction, nature, childhood stories about UFOs and ghosts, and also other music artists like Kraftwerk, Can, Tangerine Dream, Neu!, AD2, Jean Michel Jarre, Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Hawkwind, Brian Eno, Robert Rich, Steve Roach, and others.
