 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.
 Also central to the project, visual collaborator Jonathan Zawada’s artistry enhances the project with his hyperreal environments that blur the line between the organic and digital, juxtaposing uneasy landscapes of natural beauty with the brutal aesthetics of a dystopian world.
 Through Yorke’s lyrics, Pritchard’s atemporal compositions and Zawada’s visuals, ‘Tall Tales’ questions where our insatiable appetite for ‘progress’ might have landed us.
 ‘Tall Tales’ will be accompanied by an album-length film and artwork designed by multi-disciplinary visual artist and designer Jonathan Zawada, that adds layers of meaning to an album that is a fairy tale for the modern world.
 ‘First Edition’ deluxe CD available in a casebound sleeve with 36-page suspended booklet, debossed cover with tipped in central image.
