“Enveloping, radiant, even sentimental. The drifting harmonies echo the Sea and Cake at their
balmiest and most bucolic, where even the slightest ef ort melts beneath the glow of the endless
summer; the tumbling groove exemplifies the ramshackle, improvisatory spirit that’s at the
heart of modular synthesis. The combination of the two is delightful.” - Pitchfork, Best New Music

John and I had a wonderful time playing last night in Minneapolis @thecedar and really looking forward to the show tomorrow night in Chicago at @constellationchicago. Something I have forgotten to mention is the show tomorrow night will be streamed live, the Constellation streams are excellent!

Bli med inni et glødende maskinlandskap 💙

Søndag 14. juni får vi besøk av Sam Prekop og John McEntire på Østre – to skikkelser fra Chicago-miljøet som gjennom flere tiår har lekt med grensene mellom rock, elektronisk musikk, improvisasjon og studiobasert lydkunst.

Musikerne er kjent fra The Sea and Cake, men også for hvert sitt omfattende kunstnerskap: Prekop gjennom sine soloutgivelser på modulærsynth, fotografi og visuell kunst, McEntire som trommeslager i Tortoise, komponist, produsent og en sentral lydarkitekt for en rekke banebrytende prosjekter i skjæringspunktet mellom post-rock, elektronikk og eksperimentell pop.

Med «Sons Of» (Thrill Jokey Records, 2022) fant de frem til sitt første fullengdes samarbeid som duo. Albumet ble hyllet av Pitchfork, og står igjen som en sjelden varm, åpen og dypt musikalsk elektronisk plate. Her møtes modulærsynth, trommemaskiner, samplere og effekter i lange, organiske forløp der improvisasjon og presisjon går hånd i hånd. Resultatet er pulserende minimalisme med melodisk generøsitet – et glødende maskinlandskap, der hvert lag av lyd får tid til å vokse, forskyve seg og finne ny retning.

Sons Of er musikk som puster. Musikken til to musikere som vet akkurat når de skal bygge, når de skal la noe stå åpent, og når en enkel melodi er nok til å løfte hele rommet.

Dabbling in a bit of playing music and audio engineering back in day, @_john_mcentire has always been an influence as a musician (@trts and @thetheseaandcake ) as well as running Soma Electronic Music Studios to record and mix a wide array of influential bands. I had the pleasure of meeting him in 2025.
