q and also a :: ZAZA
Danny Taylor of ZAZA 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: Scott Walker‘s “Clara”.
Streamable: Clara (youtube)
q: What is your favorite beverage?
a: Orbitz.
q: What is your favorite band to see live?
a: Rock show, hands down Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Holy Fuck‘s rhythm section is amazing. Serena Maneesh are a force. Looking forward to Kurt Feldman’s (Depreciation Guild / Pains Of Being Pure At Heart) new project Ice Choir.

q: What is your favorite venue (in NYC, if applicable)?
a: One of our best shows was as the lone opener to a sold out crowd of 500 hardcore trip hop fans. We enjoy awkward spaces.
q: What piece(s) of culture are you really really excited about right now?
a: The growing individualism and independence of the arts. I think we’ve been in a transitory period for the last decade and the old industry dinosaurs are finally turning into oil.
q: Anything we should know about your latest project (whatever that might be)?
a: We are working on having our next release be a series of EP’s, all around a central theme. Mini operas. Also planning on remixing Sacred Geometry for subwoofer destruction.
