Stephen Chopek: Space Magnets

Singer and multi-instrumentalist Stephen Chopek always uses his drums as the starting point of his songs. Once he has settled on an interesting backbeat, he then starts adding guitar, bass and whatever else instrument he can get his hands on. The new Space Magnets EP finds him tackling subjects like love, paranoia and nigthlife by way of off-kilter, lo-fi art rock.

All four tracks are quite high strung, as if looking for release and never fully achieving that. It makes for a captivating listening experience, revealing new layers after each play. Recommended if you like Television and the early Talking Heads albums.

Space Magnets is released via Declared Goods. Buy it from his website.

1. Now For Always
