GHOST COP - TROUBLE TV EP 3 - June 4, 2026 -
TROUBLE TV is back with its final installment. From NYC to Warsaw, Boston to Brno, Indianapolis to Greece, episode 3 follows GHOST COP as they take TROUBLE international. As their activity increases, the outer world becomes the focus, shifting from pure abstract creation to verité documentary capture.TROUBLE TV is inspired by Mark Pellington’s BUZZ series that aired exactly once on MTV in the 90s, never to be shown again. An experiment in non-linearity and cut-up method, BUZZ drew from and presented: avant-garde art, underground cinema, early cyberpunk, industrial culture, appropriation/sampling, and postmodern literature. The band was inspired by not only the work as text but as an experience: imagine stumbling onto this late night experimental video show that was never re-broadcast, relegated to the corners of memory. Did it even happen or was it a mash-up hallucination of personal media consumption, fever-dreamt over night?
Shot on many different formats and cameras, TROUBLE TV leans into the atemporality of our current, continually recorded daily life. It is long form content for the short attention spans of our time. It is not made for the algorithm. It embraces the low-res/high-gain fluidity of the DV tape era, but also utilizes ultra sharp contemporary devices. It can be watched front-to-back; dipped in and out of; skipped around into; put on in the background. There is no one way or right way to experience TROUBLE TV.
The score is comprised of experiments, demos and forgotten versions of songs made during the writing and recording of this latest LP, as well as sketches that may be developed into future works.
It’s a supplemental addition to their new LP TROUBLE, available everywhere.
