Raoul Björkenheim 's latest project is a duo with percussionist Toppo lsopuro. These best of friends have played together for almost 25 years, although when their paths crossed for the first time in Arbuusi, Toppo handled bass duties. Ever since those days, the guitar alchemist and the rhythmic dissident have regularly set the practice room and concert halls afire with their spontaneous compositions. They have also jointly composed and recorded music for several short films in their own Rosebud studio.

Toppo was adopted as the second drummer-percussionist for Krakatau in the spring of 1994. Later in the same year he and Raoul took their duo on the road.

November 1997 will see Zot performing as the Nordic counterpart in the Franco-Finnish "Voix Et Sons Libres"-tour package.
