For more than 25 years, as a solo artist or as part of The Sea and Cake, Prekop creates a singular sound that is both inventive and warm. New album ‘Comma’ takes Pekop’s electronic music experiments in a surprising new direction. Working extensively with beat programming for the first time, Prekop uses rhythm as a narrative tool, tapping into electronic music’s romantic and emotional qualities. ‘Comma’ embraces the analogue synthesizer’s often unpredictable nature, imbuing the record with a decidedly organic feel even while working within the relative rigidity of beat architectures. Prekop’s creative process is a combination of preparation and improvisation.Writing sessions for ‘Comma’ began with an open-ended exploration of sounds and textures from which the first fragments of songs would reveal themselves. The introduction of drum machines and additional synthesizer units to his modular setup shifted things in surprising new directions as he worked to bend them into more traditional pop song structures. Drum tracks and emergent rhythms provided the frameworks and narrative sketches to be fleshed out with lustrous widescreen synth pads and ribboning melodies. In approaching his writing with a completely open mind and letting himself be guided by the music, Prekop maintains a delicate balance between composition and chance, control and spontaneity. Prekop’s wide-eyed sense of discovery guides his exploration of beat-driven music, pushing him to use rhythm as a narrative tool and to embrace electronic music’s romantic and emotional qualities. With ‘Comma’, Prekop compiles an incredible breadth of ideas into a surprisingly coherent soundworld. It’s a modern minimal pop album that taps into the experimental heritage of the synthesizer. The album places Sam Prekop’s work squarely in the tradition of electronic music pioneers like Brian Eno and Yellow Magic Orchestra, who brought together the unrestrained ambition of the avantgarde with the immediacy and accessibility of pop music. Available on CD, white vinyl and black vinyl. “More than 20 years into his career, the man is still keeping it interesting.” – NPR “… glistening weightless drift that might soundtrack your daily commute through some futuristic urban utopia.” – Stereogum Artist Sam Prekop Genre Rock And Pop Label Thrill Jockey Buying Options 1LP Coloured Vinyl Includes Download Code , 1LP Includes Download Code Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl , Includes Download Code Condition New Country UK Track Listings Park Line Summer Places Comma September Remember The New Last Approaching Circle Line Never Met Wax Wing Above Our Heads Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Sam Prekop and more from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View Sam Prekop The Republic Rock And Pop | Thrill Jockey | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 23rd February 2015 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sam Prekop The Republic £16.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Thrill Jockey SKU: THRILL384LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 23rd February 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gun Club, The Fire Of Love Rock And Pop | Munster | 1LP Released 2nd February 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gun Club, The Fire Of Love £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Munster SKU: MR256 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 2nd February 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lulu Gold Rock And Pop | Demon | 1LP Released 7th May 2021 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lulu Gold £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Demon SKU: DEMREC895 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 7th May 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Grateful Dead Anthem Of The Sun Rock And Pop | Rhino | 180g, 1LP Released 27th September 2011 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Grateful Dead Anthem Of The Sun £23.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Rhino SKU: 8122797818 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 27th September 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Snarky Puppy Tell Your Friends – 10 Year Anniversary Rock And Pop | GroundUp Music | 1LP Released 25th September 2020 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Snarky Puppy Tell Your Friends – 10 Year Anniversary £21.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: GroundUp Music SKU: GUM092520 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 25th September 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Modern Baseball Sports Rock And Pop | Lame-O Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 25th September 2015 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Modern Baseball Sports £21.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Lame-O Records SKU: LMO001LP Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 25th September 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Marisa Anderson Still, Here Rock And Pop | Thrill Jockey | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 23rd September 2022 £31.00 - £32.00 Select options Marisa Anderson Still, Here £31.00 - £32.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Thrill Jockey Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 23rd September 2022 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Robert Forster The Candle And The Flame Rock And Pop | Tapete | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 10th February 2023 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Robert Forster The Candle And The Flame £25.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Tapete SKU: TR525LTD Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 10th February 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Band Of Skulls Himalayan Rock And Pop | Electric Blues Recordings | 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 27th March 2014 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Band Of Skulls Himalayan £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Electric Blues Recordings SKU: EBRLP010 Formats: 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 27th March 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sunzoom Sunzoom Rock And Pop | Colorama Records | 1LP Released 6th May 2022 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sunzoom Sunzoom £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Colorama Records SKU: RAMALP013 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 6th May 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Cheap Girls My Roaring 20’s Rock And Pop | Asian Man Records | 1LP Released 22nd January 2013 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Cheap Girls My Roaring 20’s £17.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Asian Man Records SKU: AM253LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 22nd January 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Rock And Pop Start again
