"7 inch"

Do you have a link? Seriously, 7 inch? Not 2xlp?

Dear tiny little publishing company, do not fuck up on your LP mastering like last time. Hopefully the Jimmy buffety early sounding stuff makes it on here.
Also, tiny company, please get your price down somehow.

I was DJing in a massive art gallery on Saturday Night and one of the artists complained that the music was too corporate so I played 'Really Big Cock' by Tonetta. It was then suggested that maybe I just play Motown.

the "7 inch" note is about his cock, not the album. It's an LP.http://blacktentpress.com/item/14/TONETTA-777-VOL-II

Forks, my LP and 7 inch both had high numbers. Don't know if they are sending later numbers first or if the run is nearing its end.
Mastering on the 7 inch is good, although the source is really lo-fi. The LP is still a bit quiet, but it seems to be an improvement over 777 I. No weird Jimmy Buffett style numbers yet, but I'm hoping.

Delete "weird," insert "awesome" or nothing.

Oh MY GOD. I just found out about Tonetta and I am enthralled. I am so, so happy right now, watching his Youtube channel.

Haha, definitely. A 2xLP is in the works. Wonder if I will feel like a sucker for ordering it. This last one was kind of boring.

I'm sort of surprised by the focus on his music over the persona. I now love the songs I've heard, but I would probably not have listened to them if I hadn't been drawn in by the first video I saw (forget the name - something w/ lyrics "I'm so horny I could choke on a cock"). The music is kind of a medium for the character for me. Regardless, <3.

This is great and really sinister; I continue to be amazed that he's capable of consistently producing good new music within such a very narrow wavelengthdude is the minimalist lil bhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iy_jqJPsNo

I ordered the vinyls only a month ago. I can't remember the numbering, but it seemed that they were mid-run. I was surprised, I thought they'd have sold out by now.Anyway they sound fantastic

There's a "Drugs Drugs Drugs" remake posted last August with clearer production values:

Thought that'd be a new Tonetta video. It wasn't, so I went looking for one. He's not getting worse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRUuuOT25eE

A couple weeks ago I watched this short "documentary" on him. It's predictably fascinating and teeters between hilarious and heartbreaking. He's also posted a couple cooking videos to youtube.
