Charles “Charlie” Cooper, of the indie electronic-music group Telefon Tel Aviv died January 22, 2009. The announcement was made to his fans by the group’s myspace blog, posted by the band’s co-founder, Joshua Eustis. Eustis wrote, “We have been friends since high school, and began making records together a decade ago. We have been so fortunate to tour the world together, while at the same time having a massive amount of laughs at one another’s expense. Aside from Charlie’s singular genius and musical gifts, I can tell you that he was a total sweetheart of a guy, and a loving friend and confidant to people everywhere. His muscianship was surpassed only by his greater gift to the world – his warmth, his generosity, his unquenchable humor and his undying loyalty to those whom he loved.” According the group’s website, his life spanned from April 12, 1977 – January 22, 2009. The group had just released it’s 3rd full length album on January 20, 2009 on the BPitch Control label. A preview of the track “Helen of Troy” from the new album is now available at Pitchfork.http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=42233895&blogID=466720767 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telefon_Tel_Aviv
