Sam Prekop - Old Punch Card

Released: 20/09/2010 Thrill Jockey
After success fronting seminal Chicago post-rockers The Sea and Cake and fusing jazz, indie rock and African rhythms on two solo albums, Prekop has gone somewhere he’s never been before. The dedicated experimentalist’s latest, music concrete-inspired solo release rules out guitars, vocals, beats and the concept of ‘song’ altogether.

Pitchfork“Subtle and seemingly simple music...” An album that thrives in the gaps between established categories, with music that can come over as cool and cerebral or tinged with longing and melancholy, depending on what the listener brings to it...

allmusic“Engaging and soothing...” A more experimental, electronic direction. Sparse and textural, the album drifts back and forth between ambient melodies and static-filled soundscapes, falling somewhere between Animal Collective’s Campfire Songs and the works of Nuno Canavarro...
