sad rockets is andrew pekler, a 20 something, uzbekistan-born,
californian- raised and heidelberg-residing multi-instrumentalist.
his first 2 albums of sad rockets instrumental music, available on
the morbid and source labels, are a whirlwind trip through andrewÆs
bedroom studio, a place where soundtracky noir styles, sideways
r&b, appropriate nods to jazz, soul, punk, beats lost & found,
suave romantic moments, high comedy (in low places) and way too
much style somehow all fit onto 4 tracks. none of that
laptop/desktop shit either, this is all for real, recorded by a
real guy with real instruments in a real way. ok, he used
electricity. and these words were composed on a computer. also, i
went to a starbucks about a week ago, but it was just to get change
for the parking meters.
in short, with 4 tracks and no moolah, sad rockets creates more
atmosphere and genuine drama than the new david holmes album and
larry holmesÆ right hand combined. and donÆt get me started on
rupert holmes. his records are thrilling, funny and they work
equally well at lease-wrecking volume or at a level commensurate
with other activities (preparing sturgeon, exploratory surgery,
purchasing a planetarium, etc.). thatÆs sad rockets, not rupert
holmes.
in addition to his sad rockets career, andrew is a member of
bergheim 34, a post-everything electronic group, millions of miles
removed from sad rockets. even further, andrew is also the vocalist
for the very amazing & dangerous mucus 2, a group who most
assuredly put the ampersand in rock & roll.
