Sam Prekop

Perhaps most widely known from his work as front man for the legendary art ops ensemble The Sea & Cake, Prekop has been crafting soundscapes, scores, and artworks all his own along the way. “Sam Prekop’s work over the last 30 years, whether created primarily on his guitar or on his modular synth, is consistent in evolution. Prekop’s singular blend of melody, impressionistic, singular sound of The Sea and Cake. Prekop’s exploration of modular synthesis and electronic atmospheres has come into its own. His honed skills have crafted sounds that are instantly recognizable, his pieces express real movement. Harmonies bloom with granular detail and through his careful work he is able to convey emotion. Prekop’s inquisitive eye as an artist focuses on uncovering beauty and complexity within simplicity.” A legend by all means, whether it’s his work The Sea & Cake, his myriad collaborations with the likes of Laraaji, Jeff Parker, John Mcintire, etc. Prekop has not only created his own musical language, but inspired the next generation of artists to step into their own.

M. Sage

There are few handfuls of artists that you can tell right away who is playing just by the way they play. M. Sage is one of these rare artists. Among many things, a musician, an intermedia artist, recording engineer, producer, publisher, teacher, partner and parent, Since the early 2010’s, between Colorado and Chicago, he’s rendered projects with playful, nuanced velocity and a completist sensibility, assembling an idiosyncratic catalog of experimental studio music that sprawls in various directions. Creating entire works with each new record and performance. Sage makes works to be enveloped by. Whether solo, a part of ambient-jazz quartet Fuubutsushi, or in any of the many, many collaborative efforts, Sage’s playing stands distinct, introspective, immersive and something to be basked in.
