news

hey all!  its been sometime since our last posts.  the reason for this is not inactivity, but rather that things are really starting to get going.  Hopefully, I can fill you in without skipping over too many crucial elements.

more news about brooklyn gigs for theMimetiks.  After a couple of shows over at Saje Cafe, we were offered sundays at another joint for a more full-up ensemble at a place called Brooklyn Exposure.  So starting on the 4th of March, we’ll be in there cooking up something delightful every sunday evening from 6pm.  As soon as I hear more about that I’ll post the details here.  Later this week hopefully.

we’re working on teeshirts again.  this time going with something much simpler and more direct.  I think you’ll dig it when we get it finished.  Kyle (the graphics genius) is working on the design even as I type here.  so look forward to that.

in the meantime, i must have seemed bored because Kyle just hooked me up with yet another place to blog up the night.  in the interest of keeping this page fairly focused and contained (and succinct and sane and endurable) I will keep my most uncontrollable ramblings concerning this burgeoning musical scene to that new blog.  if you have the chance, scope it out here.

lastly, dig our new icon (to the right of the page).  after a cigar each, some hookah, good food, and perhaps a touch too much to drink, I showed Kyle the photo booth feature on my new computer.  madness and obscenity ensued.  in a moment of concentrated inspiration, we edited it down to like seven frames, threw it onto Illustrator, made an animation, and published it here.  Ill-advised?  Perhaps.  But it was bucket-loads of fun.

til the next joint,

akie

ps.  and, for those of you keeping tabs, never fear: we are still working on “music for apartments” there are still four or five tracks to go before we can call it quits on that project.  so whatever you do, stay tuned!

a bit of melancholy, for those of you who are willing to listen.

Q (& A)

Live In Brooklyn, theMimetiks

Oh it has been a long time. We trust that the new year has been good to you all. January was full of non-mimetiks work for kyle and myself, and we are happy to be returning to the fold. With new tunes already popping out of our chops.

the big news, however, is that we’ve finally nailed down what should become a regular tuesday night gig up in Crown Heights (i’ve heard they’re call in it Prospect Heights, these days. but, let’s be honest, its not THAT close to the park). come check us out, this tuesday (Feb. 6) if you can. We’re playing at a resaurant/coffee shop caled Saje. Its a terribly hip joint. the coffee is good - i’ve never eaten there, but i’m sure its quality - and we’ll be there in the intimate duo setting. We’ll even dedicate one to you… which we’ll likely have to make up on the spot. but - so what’s new?!

more to follow. stay crunchy,

akie
