Andrea Havis (formerly of GT favs Susu ) put together another single for her solo(ish) project, Su . The single was recorded for free at Converse Rubber Tracks (who do not retain any ownership rights in the music that is recorded there). She is currently writing songs for a full length, which she is hoping to steer in a slightly heavier direction. Said LP should be ready for release next Spring. It should be noted that Havis has been working with one Billy Perez who plays bass, synth, wurlitzer, and theremin on this track.

Su is the solo work of Andrea Havis who is 1/3 of the art-punk band, Susu from Brooklyn. Havis is offering three tracks for free on Bandcamp. The EP, 123 , is not as raucous as her work with Susu, but her haunting vocals and sparse arrangements are just as captivating. Havis indicates on her Facebook page that these tracks are just "sketches of ideas." She's being a bit humble. I really enjoyed the tracks, Mountain and Around Me, and can see these being the foundation for a full-length release.

We here at GIMME TINNITUS have been detracting slightly from your concert experience all year long. We take photos at shows. We know... we know we are annoying. That said, we do out best to keep it to a minimum and usually don't use a flash (which is why so many of these photos need a little "shopping"). Join us in reliving some of our favorite moments from some of the concerts we have seen during the past year. Look + Listen: You can click on the images for hi-res...

Brookyln's Andrea Havis was 1/3 of Susu . Since the demise of Susu , Havis has taken some time to put together some "avant-folk meets a TR-7073 "sketches" under the moniker, Su .

Is it time to start listing the best tracks of year already? Why yes, yes it is. Now, a lot of these tracks have been available for a while (e.g. last year or in the GT 2010 preview ), but they either had their official release this year or I just thought they should be on this list for some other reason or another. Without further ado, I give you the first volume of the Best Downloadables of 2010.

Pouria said he wanted to take the week off because he's burned out on new releases. And then he sits next to me and tells me about all the albums I'm missing. I think he's actually burned out on being funny.

So this post contains (pretty much) all of my favorite mp3s from 2009. I have not put them in any sort of preferential order. These are sorted by artist in alphabetical order.
