Andrya of Talk Normal 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?
a: The Tides of Manaunaun by Henry Cowell. He’s a piano man; early 20th century. It’s like an earthquake with the most rewarding melodies on top. Deep stuff.
a: I love twig tea. It’s kinda like green tea but with twigs, not the leaves. This means there is way less caffeine and it almost has a nuttier taste. I like to steep it for at least 10 minutes so it gets almost black. Some folks call it kukicha. I call it tasty.
q: What is your favorite band to see live?
a: This is tough… Lower Dens? Although I am not sure if this is just because I treasure their tunes, which only enhances my perception of them as a ‘live’ act. I’d like to now reflect on a poignant ‘live’ experience… I once did sound for an ensemble with whom Steve Reich premiered a piece. Long story much shorter, he showed up only for the actual show and ended up directing the live mix. It was a wild ride. I was sweating bullets. That man is rock-n-roll.
q: What is your favorite venue in NYC (if applicable)?
a: I feel like show locations are not necessarily about established venues, but rather promoters and what particular bands they decided to string together for that night. But ‘venue’ specific, I like Death By Audio, 285 Kent, Secret Project Robot and Zebulon – all for different and various reasons.
q: What piece(s) of culture are you really really excited about right now?
