Tiny Mix Tapes

Dirty Projectors announce US tour in support of the time between Bitte Orca and their next album

·

Dirty Projectors are about to set forth on yet another US tour. But not before Dave Longstreth’s fake interview with TMT!

So, what’s it like?

What’s what like?

You know, being a star?

I’m not sure if you could call me a “star,” per se.

Well… then what’s it like to play The Getty Address in full? Isn’t Bitte Orca your hit album?

I think the album is underrated and want more people to hear it. I want more people to hear me too, because I’m also underrated. Have you even heard The Getty Address? Can you believe all the amazing shit I did on it?

Have I heard it? Shit, son — I practically wrote that motherfucker. It was on our decade list even.

What decade list?

Oh, you write for a webzine or something?

Fuck yeah, dude. Tiny Mix Tapes, only the most well-regarded webzine of all-time.

Never heard of it.

It’s an underground sorta thing.

Is it like Prefix?

Dude, fuck you.

What do you mean?

I mean “fuck you.”

No need to get hostile, bro. I just never heard of Tiny Mixed Tapes. Do you guys actually make mix tapes?

Well, we make tracklists out of mix tape requests.

Tracklists only? People can’t even hear the music, then?

No, they could download if they wanted to though.

What’s the point then?
