If you've been feeling a raging lacuna in your life since the only quasi-official Tracy + the Plastics Myspace page disappeared several months back, you can do a little bedroom dance right about now. Wynne Greenwood's new website for her now-defunct multimedia project has just launched. It's deliciously 8 bit and gives you the opportunity to buy MP3s directly from Greenwood.


I'm happy to share that I've set up a tracy + the plastics song shop and archive at www.tracyandtheplastics.com (Thank you to Kellie!)

There are a couple really old gems from 1999 when I was playing shows around Olympia as "Tracy" with just this exploded keyboard as my instrument. These are in the "Unreleased Songs" section. I'll also be putting up some of the last songs I wrote as tracy + the plastics, in time. Look out!

Also, www.wynnegreenwood.com also has the beginnings of a music shop. For songs, music, and recordings that have been happening and are happening now, and will happen. Big Candy and Culture Keeper from the unreleased self-titled record "wynne greenwood" are up there now. There's also info about projects I've made in the past couple years, like the large abstract textiles (curtains) called Sweated.

Poking around on the two sites doesn't take you super far, but does give you a fairly comprehensive overview of Wynne's output in the last decade, as well as allowing you to buy hard-to-find material directly from the artist (not that I'm entirely opposed to record labels or illegal downloading, but, you know... that's cool).

Should I also tell you, out of deference to my jet lag, that I keep picturing Lindsay Lohan's clique from Mean Girls in lieu of Nikki and Cola as Wynne's backup? Or, like, Bisphenol A? Heh, sure, it may be Wednesday afternoon for you, but it's Wednesday OH MY GOD I'M READY FOR BED for me. Maybe I should keep that to myself. Oh well, too late.
