Heady, experimental Futurist, James Ferraro, whose super bonkersHippos In Tanks release Far Side Virtual was on a bunch of avant-garde publication Top 10 lists (FACT, Wire, Dummy,) has a mall food court booty oriented, R & B side-project called Bebe-Tune$. And right in time for the holidays, Ferraro is giving away the first mixtape, “Inhale C-4 $$$$$$$$,” for FREE!

Equal parts quiet storm slow jams, dolphin rave video music, meditation tapes, with periodic shifts into spastic rhythm & bass, Ferraro is making headphone music for the children of Johnny Mneumonic‘s consumerist dystopia. The only way to survive the intensity of holiday shopping the next few days is listening to Bebe-Tune$ while doing it.
