It's no exaggeration to say that modern pop music would look very different without producer and musician A. G. Cook.
He founded the extremely influential producer collective and label PC Music, has collaborated with artists such as Sophie, Caroline Polachek and Beyoncé and has been seen as one of the main architects of the whole hyperpop wave, which has had a huge impact on the entire pop music landscape. Importantly, he has also been a regular creative collaborator for Charli XCX and one of the main producers on her blockbuster album Brat.
That Cook is a master with both a keen pop cultural awareness and an ability to push pop in sparkling futuristic directions is demonstrated on his own latest opus, boldly titled Britpop. On this triple album, Cook embraces pop's past, present and future with everything from glittering 80s synths, noise-pop guitars, shimmering ballads and experimental sonic explorations that demonstrate that he is still one of pop's most innovative figures without sacrificing pop's immediate nerve and engaging potential.
Live, A. G. Cook is an energetic tour de force that sets both hearts and dance floors spinning. Get ready to be drawn into a universe where romantic intensity meets club vibes on speed. When he arrives at Roskilde Festival for his first-ever show in Denmark, expect a performance that breaks boundaries and underscores why he’s one of pop’s most groundbreaking figures.
