q and also a :: Big Spider’s Back

Yair Rubinstein a/k/a Big Spider’s Back sent us these answers to our questions in this next installment of q and also a.

q: What is the last song you (really) heard?

a: New Beat (mp3) by Toro Y Moi. I love anything and everything to do with funky synth vibratos.

q: What is your favorite beverage?

a: My friend introduced me to St. Germain a couple months ago. That with soda is the jam. I also like smoothies. But those are more meals than drinks.

q: What is your favorite band to see live?

a: I really enjoyed watching Nathan Fake open up for Four Tet. I don’t think I ever saw his face. He was just a big mop of hair banging his head into his laptop. Really entertaining stuff.

Listen:
Basic Mountain (mp3) by Nathan Fake
Love Cry (mp3) by Four Tet

q: What is your favorite venue in NYC (if applicable)?

a: I haven’t scoured every venue, but I do enjoy Glasslands. Lots of wood paneling and big puffy clouds. I feel like I’m at a ski lodge in heaven.

q: What piece(s) of culture are you really really excited about right now?

a: I’m really into ebooks right now. I just downloaded the complete anthology of H.P. Lovecraft. I anticipate reading about three of them.

q: Anything we should know about your latest project (whatever that might be)?

a: I’m finishing up my first full-length right now. I also have some other collaborative projects in the works.

We will bring you more details on those projects at some point in the future, but for now listen a couple tracks from Big Spider’s Back.

Listen:
Pyramids At Night (mp3)
Perfect Machine (mp3)
