Hey Typical!, as featured on this special 10" release, is the original “laptop” version of a track from his new Deathbomb Arc CD entitled Throw Down Your Laptops. Books on Tape fans will find their surefooted hero in prime shape here! Two more songs are included for your enjoyment: Oceania (a live favourite) and the oven-fresh Track and Field Song. Attention: new musical forms are being explored in here! And it’s groovy! And it’s on 120 gram blue vinyl, no less!
His excellent album impressed us […] and this is pretty much more of the same.

Raised on punk rock and related products, Todd Drootin got turned on to electronic music and hip-hop in the nineties. With Matt Dennebaum, he forms the duo Subverse, whose sole, self-released cassette Nobody Likes You (1998), although a fairly obscure item in itself, got them some well deserved kudos. Unfortunately, the band had to split shortly afterwards as their members moved to opposite coasts: Matt went to New York City, and Todd eventually found his way to Los Angeles. → Full bio
