Pocket Musician

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pocket is the remixer/producer alias for Richard Jankovich. Since 2005, he has released many "pocket mixes" for artists like Joanna Newsom, Beck, Kristin Hersh, Antony and The Johnsons, Radiohead, Cat Power, Of Montreal and more. In 2009, Pocket began releasing a series of singles featuring guest singers like Robyn Hitchcock, Craig Wedren (Shudder To Think), Steve Kilbey (The Church), Danny Seim (Menomena), Mark Burgess (The Chameleons), and more. Pocket admits the name was bestowed upon him by Brooklyn Vegan when the blog posted his Joanna Newsom Pocket Mix and referred to him directly as Pocket. In late 2008, it was learned that Pocket would be releasing a full length LP in 2009. In early 2009, Pocket announced that he would be releasing these tracks as singles throughout the year with accompanying b-sides and remixes. In March, the first single, "Surround Him With Love" featuring Robyn Hitchcock was featured in the 3rd episode of NBC's "Kings.".
