Helsinki is probably not the first town you would think of when it comes to the Hip Hop scene, and Giant Robot are out to challenge your perceptions of this musical genre. Giant Robot are a fresh and funky collective, hailing from Finland's capital city, and their debut 'Crushing You With Style' does exactly what the title promises. You see, this is no mere run-of-the-mill rapping record, but a cool and suave collection of 17 laid-back and funky tunes. With a squelchy, 1980s-based Elektrofunk vibe, plodding along to a meaty and extremely dubby bassline, this record takes no prisoners as it presents tracks filled with Giant Robot's irresistible brand of humour (song titles include 'Cool "Disco" Dan', 'Swedish Shit', 'Helsinki Rock City', and 'Dire Straits', a rollicking tribute to those perpetual sweatband-wearing grandfathers of guitar picking). Yes - A few listens are needed to get used to this one, but you'll be hooked after that. OK, we're finnished (sorry, couldn't resist).
