Tatu Rumor
According to the official Tatu site, Rammstein and Tatu may be working on a song together. Here is what was said: Tatu girls are ready to record a song with Rammstein. This will be the most unpredicted project. Tatu's producer, Ivan Shapovalov, and Rammstein's management are now discussing the details. Perhaps very soon, Tatu will release a new song with a touch of the German sound manager's hand. Tatu's vocal, and Rammstein's music might turn out to be a great combination. Watch the news. There's no news on when this will happen, IF it happens.

mOBSCENE
Rammstein might be mixing a song, mOBSCENE, for an upcoming Marilyn
Manson single. Marilyn Manson's new album comes out May 13th, so the
single will probably proceed it by about one month. Here is what Manson
posted on his website, in the Oracle section: From
hypermnesia on 03/04/03:
With the german influnce on the new album are you considering touring
with a german band E.g Alec Empire,Rammstein
Answered by MM on 03/04/03:
The album's influences are equally French, American, German, Russian
and Swiss. I believe Rammstein is making a remix of the mOBSCENE, however.
Should be great.
Breaking Up Rumor
Metal Hammer, a magazine in the UK, has reported that Rammstein are
on the verge of splitting up and that Richard is doing a solo project.
As far as we know, this is absolutely false!
Richard does "jam" with his friends, but they are just having fun, they
are not planning on releasing anything or touring. Also, Metal Hammer
reported that Sasha from KMFDM would be involved in the group as well,
but he denied it.
As for Rammstein breaking up, Metal Hammer probably heard what Flake
wrote in a logbook entry on the fanarea and it was misinterpreted. Here
are parts of what Flake said on January 31st: For
instance, I am of the opinion that is it not necessary to record a fourth
album, that is similar to the first three albums. Who wants to listen
to Rammstein music, can certainly listen to the first 3 albums. For which
reason does one need further ten tracks of the same sort? This is not
a matter of quantity. The music would surely not improve if there was
more of it.
...
I would rather make ballads, which don't have those screaming guitars
intrudingly squeaking along, just because they are present anyhow.
...
To put it in a nutshell, it can take a while until the new album is released,
and when it is finished it will sound like we always sound, of course. So,
don't worry, Rammstein are still together and working on the new album
and possibly a remix for Marilyn Manson!

According to nutcracker.ru, Rammstein might be contributing to the soundtrack for a new Russian release of the cartoon movie, Nutcracker. It will be released in Russia, America, Germany, and France at the same time. It seems like they are still in negotiations, but these are some possible contributers to the soundtrack: Rammstein, Eminem, Enrique Iglesias, and T.A.T.U. There is nothing confirmed now, but when I hear more info about it, I'll add it.Thanks to MajorTom at rammsteinfan.ru for this info.
