Description: The New Restaurants is a Brooklyn-based band led by longtime friends Beau Alessi and Doug Schrashun, two veterans of the NYC/Brooklyn music scene -- perhaps best known for their involvement in MiniBoone and Robot Princess. With a new website (as opposed to an album) available now on Bandcamp and soon at forgetabout.institute, the duo talk about their history together (which includes writing NBA All Star Jams eleven years running) as well as their unique way of writing music for this latest project. Also in the episode, we have music by c’yotes, Metz, and Deerhoof.   00:00 - // StereoactiveNYC / BTRtoday ID // 00:16 - // Welcome // 00:57 - // c’yotes // 03:41 - “Thievery” - c’yotes 05:39 - “Nothing Left” - c’yotes 08:57 - // Beau Alessi + Doug Schrashun (The New Restaurants) 14:29 - // Interview begins // 15:19 - // How did they get to know each other? // 18:00 - // NBA All Star Jams // 21:13 - // Humor in music and finding a balance // 26:51 - // The aesthetic or tone of The New Restaurants / satire? // 30:24 - // Next steps / live version of the band // 32:04 - // Facebook // 33:24 - // Writing process // 36:21 - // Doug songs vs. Beau songs / collaboration // 38:45 - // About “Celebrity Cruises" // 39:23 - “Celebrity Cruises” - The New Restaurants 42:27 - // More about writing // 44:43 - // Doug song? // 47:35 - “Tropical Contact High” - The New Restaurants 50:42 - // Translating recorded versions of songs to live versions // 53:19 - // Trying to avoid the comparison game / influences, etc. // 60:08 - // What’s next for The New Restaurants? // 63:03 - “Color Me Vegan” - The New Restaurants 65:31 - // Mic Break // 67:38 - “Get Off” (Serious Business, 2012) - Metz 69:45 - “Headache” (Serious Business, 2012) - Metz 71:46 - “I Will Spite Survive” (feat.
