  • Blueprint of Soul

    RADDIG-21

    Artist: Teddy Presberg

    Label: Ropeadope Digital

    This striking debut by Portland guitarist and composer Teddy Presberg is pure improv-funk, inspired by the City of Roses and produced in a most unconventional way. Presberg’s Blueprint of Soul is organic – no artificial ingredients.

    In a world of overly perfected pop music, you don’t hear that sort of thing – even on the indie radio stations. “Music is a reaction,” muses Presberg, “so why not keep your reactions as pure and natural as they can be. I’m not knocking the idea of a ‘second-take,’ I just wanted to go with my first response.”

    As part of an environmentally focused partnership with Three Pin Records, one percent of the album proceeds are donated to 1% For The Planet, benefiting the Organic Farming Research Foundation in Santa Cruz, California. Through additional financial contributions to The Climate Trust, the album is also a neutral greenhouse gas production. “It doesn’t matter what our profession is, we have a personal responsibility to reduce the negative impacts of our actions,” says Presberg.
