Sam Prekop "Old Punch Card"

























Taking inspiration from early music concrete and electronic music, the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, Nuno Canavarro, Raymond Scott, David Behrman, and free improvisation, Old Punch Card is a beautifully noisy, jagged, yet stately album of synthesizer music.


Sam Prekop – The Silhouettes

'The Silhouettes' is taken from the forthcoming new full length "Old Punch Card" by Sam Perkop (Shrimp Boat~The Sea and Cake).  "Old Punch Card" is due out on September 7th via Thrill Jockey.


"I'd have to say this record is pretty much unlike anything else I've done. There's some relation to music I made for my book "Photographs" but really only in instrumentation. The intro to The Sea and Cake's David Bowie cover of "Sound and Vision", on One Bedroom is an early precedent. The most significant difference, is that I've left the confines of "song" structure."












"PHOTOGRAPHS" (2007)
a collection of photography created by Sam Prekop has been available on Presspop (Japan), and here.
