   About Burnside Project


RICHARD FROM BURNSIDE PROJECT IS ALSO POCKET.
"SURROUND HIM WITH LOVE" SINGLE, FEATURING ROBYN HITCHCOCK. MARCH 31ST., FRAGA MUSIC.

As the principal creative mind behind the NYC-based electro-pop band Burnside Project (Bar-None Records), Richard Jankovich (aka Pocket) is not just well-versed in pop music production—he's quickly become one of the most celebrated remixers today. As Pocket, Jankovich has done remixes for Beck, Radiohead, Kristin Hersh, Of Montreal, Elk City, Joanna Newsom, Mendoza Line, Dirty on Purpose, Eskobar and many others, always to critical acclaim ("We've always been fans, but this is the deepest Pocket's gone yet. Outstanding."—Stereogum, "Where Radiohead's version builds from spare beginnings (little more than Thom Yorke's voice and keyboards), Jankovich lets droning tendrils of noise poke into all that space, setting a thumping beat beneath."--Pitchfork).

Now, Pocket is proud to announce his most ambitious and incredible project yet: a full-length's worth of singles featuring a stunning lineup of both legacy musicians and newer artists, all of which will be released digitally and individually throughout 2009. Pocket's new website, music-by-pocket.com, is set for a March 31st relaunch, and stems for each remix will be posted on the Pocket site for download for one month only.

The first installment, "Surround Him With Love" featuring legendary Soft Boys singer/guitarist Robyn Hitchcock, will be released on March 31st from Fraga Music. Pocket & Robyn Hitchcock's "Surround Him With Love" single is to be released not only as an original version, but as three additional remixes: KKS' Space Disco Remix, the Somnambulists Remix, and The Stealth Remix. As part of the five-song single pack, Pocket is also releasing b-side "Let Her Close Her Eyes", featuring musician/comedienne Shonali Bhowmik (Tigers and Monkeys).

This succession of Pocket singles will feature an impressive and diverse collection of remixers, including Craig Wedren (Shudder To Think), Slim Moon (Kill Rock Stars, Shot Clock Management, Slim Moon and What Army), Markese, Rick Moody (novelist), David Fischoff (Secretly Canadian), Ming (Ming + FS), Beatallica, Kendall (Mascott), Alien Skin (George from Real Life), Glenn Mercer (The Feelies), Mux (Ghostly), Elk City, The Wrens and more.

Contributing artists aside from Robyn Hitchcock and Shonali Bhowmik include Craig Wedren (Shudder to Think), Dave Smalley (Down By Law), Yuki Chikudate (Asobi Sesku), Mark Burgess, Steve Kilbey (The Church), Lorraine Lelis, Tanya Donelly (Belly), Sal Principato and Danny Seim (Menomena).

After 10 years of making music in New York, Jankovich recently relocated to Los Angeles.
