Tim & Puma Mimi (Skype Concert)

Saturday, August 16
Admission: $5, $10 minimum
Showtimes: 10:30pm
reservations are recommended

Imagine there's a little japanese woman, in a small appartement in Tokyo, singing into her laptop, gets live transmitted via skype to new york, gets video-projected to a wall and amplified to the music produced and performed by Tim.

it's not a dream! it's the f**ing virtual-reality.

Yes: call it globalization, call it Pop 2.0, call it whatever... it's not an experiment, it's not a gimmick-it's a must! Business Mimi has less than 10 days holiday a year, there's no way to make a tour or something. Her Boss doesn't even know that Mimi has concerts in New York before she comes to work in Tokyo!

After releasing 3 EPs (vinyl and mp3 download) on alpinechic.net and stattmusik.ch/kompakt, Tim & Puma Mimi are pretty famous in Europe, but still undercover in New York.

TIM & PUMA MIMI it's a new live!

'what the duo Tim & Puma Mimi deliver is a fast and crazy mix of cheerful tunes. Breakbeat, J-Pop, even blip minimalism and a good portion of happy groove fuse to a sweet, frisky and at times video-gamish 4-song ep.'
