    Re: RIP Charlie Cooper (Telefon Tel Aviv)

    apparently he's originally from new orleans. i didn't know him but many people over on the disco productions board did. over there some are saying he had a history of threatening to commit suicide. he went missing for a few days after getting in a big fight with his girl friend last week.

          Charlie Cooper, half of Chicago electronic duo Telefon Tel Aviv, was found dead today at 31, according to CBS2. According to area detectives interviewed by CBS, Cooper had gone missing last week following an argument with his girlfriend and his body was found today on the Near Northwest Side. CBS reports Cooper had threatened suicide in the past but stops short of listing suicide as the cause of death. An autopsy is scheduled to be performed today. Telefon Tel Aviv had just released Immolate Yourself, its third studio album, on Jan. 20.

                This is terrible, another person taking their own life

                Sorry to see someone who made such beautiful music hurt so much inside. Hopefully he is in a better place now.

                  Very sad indeed ... that latest album is a great legacy.

                  This release was mastered direct from vinyl at the request of the DJ and as such features natural sound characteristics of this medium such as record surface noise.

                      this is the most sad and shocking news.

                      and especially because of the fact that Disco D took his life on the same day two years ago.

                          This is a bummer. Really love their new alb. It was always nice to check out what they got going on. Very talented and gifted individuals. Always sad to hear this type of news. RIP.

                              Sad news indeed.

                              New album is full of really beautiful, amazing sounds and has been on heavy rotation for almost 2 weeks. Many soul/spirit lifting tracks and a few haunting tracks that take you away to dark places.

                              The whole album is pure class but my favs are, Helen Of Troy, Mosty Translucent and Made A Tree On The World.

                              RIP.
                              “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”
                              Marcus Tullius Cicero
