In Robot news:
The next Giant Räbät show is at Kuudes linja on 2.2.2007. No idea what'll happen...
The next Giant Robot record is set for release this Fall. We may or may not release an ep or an mp3 single or... before that.
Jontti & Shaka are releasing a record on 24.1. and it includes a Giant Räbät remix of 'Pistä se paskaks' off their previous cd-r release 'Vittuun koko sakki'.

I just put up some short fiction and related songs at my own site:

Robot shows coming up. We'll be playing some new songs off our next album, which will be released Q2/2007... This will be the tenth anniversary of the first Giant Robot release.
Räbät will play some shows in at least Tampere and Helsinki in January/February, 2007.
Tuomas released his solo album last week on Stupido. Available in stores.
I'll be touring with Black Audio and Viola in November.
Both Mamba and I play in Fat Beat Sound System. Our new 10" ep, Late Downtown, was released last week, too. It features Hosni on vocals, plus remixes by Accu and Bommitommi.
