It’s time to listen to a bunch of the tracks I have not posted recently. Here is the next NOT POSTED mix. These are just a few of the songs that would get their own individual posts here on GIMME TINNITUS if I only had the time.

We are excited to premiere a track by electronic / psychedelic / abstract hip hop producer and circuit bent visual artist Big Pauper. This is side one, track one off his brilliant new LP, Beyond My Means. Listen.
q: What piece(s) of culture are you really really excited about right now?
a: I have developed a mild fascination with Matthew Lesko and his online presence. I can’t get enough of his infomercials, especially Tax Rap & that disturbing Gotta Get Your Money one where he just randomly starts beating a man. Something got tragically lost in execution on that one. That man is one of the most significant visual/performance artists of our time whether or not he realizes it. I think he does.
q: Anything we should know about your latest project (whatever that might be)?
a: Man, where to start. I recently created a collection of VSTs based on the world-renowned circuit bent instruments of my Folktek cohorts. I’m getting ready to tour Europe with a live a/v performance I cooked up. I’m filming a sixty minute collection of short films at my place of employment (unbeknownst to my employer). I also recently purchased a vinyl lathe I plan on restoring. New albums, new collaborations, made a banana bread a minute ago I want to go eat. Nice chatting with you folks, thanks for your support.
Josh, Max, and Thomas of Sleepies sent us these answers to our questions in this next installment of the q and also a series.
q: What is the last song you (really) heard?
j: I’ve been listening to “Oh!” by Sleater-Kinney on repeat for a few weeks now. We went on a Northwest tour back in January and I’ve kind of just stayed there.
j: Alcoholic – Nothing beats a good manhattan on the rocks. Non-Alcoholic – Two way tie between coffee (skim milk, no sugar) and a cold glass of carrot juice.
m: Daddy’s in Brooklyn makes this thing they call the Margaveza, which is a glass 2/3 full of Mexican beer and 1/3 margarita on top. Sometimes I dream of washing down infinite tacos with infinite Margavezas.
j: I don’t think I can ever see Little Victory enough times. They are easily one of my top 3 bands in New York right now. I also relish any opportunity to see our buddies from Texas, Leg Sweeper. As far as I’m concerned, those two bands invented chemistry.
m: I will see Billy Bragg any time, any place…except for City Winery, which is waaaay too expensive. I listen to dozens of his bootlegs just to hear his between-song patter. Green Day is probably the band I have seen more than any other; the cooler-than-thou can whinge and moan about their recent output until the cows come home, but at the end of the day my guts still seize up when they launch into ‘Basketcase’ or ’2000 Light Years Away’…and that seizing is why I see bands in the first place, so, really, what’s your problem? I also have a taste for messianic stadium spectacle, so for real mass transcendence one must, immediately, see Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band for a proper baptism. Bad Credit No Credit make me the happiest of any band I see regularly in Brooklyn, and I cannot say enough good things about them.
t: Little Victory and Leg Sweeper will always poll extremely well with the three of us. If you can’t have fun watching those bands you’re just an asshole. I saw Pavement over the summer and it was pretty game changing. I’d only been a casual Pavement fan, but seeing them in Central Park on the big stage with all the rock star lighting was one of the more memorable shows of the summer. I would love to see the Urinals one day if they ever make it out east. Seeing Grass Widow last summer was a dream come true. I’m looking forward to seeing At the Drive-in and Fugazi when I curate All Tomorrow’s Parties.
q: What is your favorite venue in NYC (if applicable)?
j: I think Dead Herring is an unbelievably special space. When we played their for the first time, our expectations of what a show should be like totally shifted. It’s intimate, comfortable and the kids who live there are amazing. I have yet to see or play a show there that isn’t an absolute blast.
m: Seconded!
t: Definitely Dead Herring. There’s no other place like it in New York and it’s run by the nicest people on the planet.
q: What piece(s) of culture are you really really excited about right now?
t: Mr. Dream’s “Trash Hit.” These dudes are going to save music from itself. It’s about time, too. Things were looking pretty bleak there for a minute.
