"I remember when blahblahblah..."
:: Arto Brummer
< Prev   Bio
B-Unit has been doing this music since 1990 and still doesn't know when to quit. Or play properly. Also acts as a webmaestro for this place. A kind of a superhero: A fat nerd and a family man over daytime hours, but comes out at night to play rock'n'roll. Has gone from being bald to having the longest hair in the band. Goddamn hippie...
Equipment:
Assorted drums and cymbals. Has a fetish for splash cymbals and hitting drums with other objects than regular drums sticks, ie. rods, mallets, shakers, tamborines, hands. (Typical exchange: B: "I'm going to play this song with a spoon and a fork." V: "Erm, just try playing it with drum sticks, please." B: "Hrmph.")
Likes:
All things bizarre and strange. Has a taste in music (best described as "eclectic") ranging from country and new wave to soul, funk and electro, rap and all genres inbetween.
Hero worship:
TR-808, R2-D2
Fascinating fact:
A hardcore fan of old analog synths and combo organs, though can't play any keyboard part more complicated than Ukko Nooa.

  2. Fleetwood Mac: Tusk - best song ever that features a marching band
  3. Tuomari Nurmio - still genius
  4. 2 CDs for 15€ at Anttila - buying records is like putting money into bank
  5. Pizza with some green salad on top
