Tall Tales (Vinyl 2LP)

Mark Pritchard and Thom Yorke solidify their long-standing creative synergy with Tall Tales, their first full-length collab on Warp Records. Nearly a decade after Yorke graced Pritchard’s Beautiful People, the duo reunites for an album that merges Yorke’s haunted, expansive voice with Pritchard’s intricate and experimental electronic production. Blurring the lines between ambient, downtempo, and leftfield pop. - Flying Out

Mark Pritchard and Thom Yorke are set to release their debut album as a duo via Warp Records. Following Pritchard’s remixes for Radiohead, the pair struck upon an otherworldly synergy with the track ‘Beautiful People’, a centrepiece of Mark’s 2016 solo album Under The Sun. 

Now presenting a whole album, Tall Tales showcases Pritchard’s mastery of archaic machines that he had previously unearthed in synthesizer archives, guiding the music down unexpected and experimental paths. Yorke meanwhile delivers a haunting and expansive vocal performance, evoking Radiohead’s OK Computer-era digital FX while delving into dark, introspective storytelling.
